Welcome back fellow hardgainers! Are you worried about locking out on exercises like the bench press or leg press, because you think you'll put too much pressure on your joints? Do you think that you need to go just shy of lockout to keep constant tension on the muscle to achieve greater muscle growth? In today's episode, I will address these concerns, determine if locking out is harmful and/or will cost you some gains, and ultimately answer the question: Should you be locking out during your exercises?
