Stop Slamming the Stack

Equal Parts Annoying and Ineffective

In this episode of Built for Life, Simon kicks things off with a gym-floor pet peeve that reveals a deeper training flaw: slamming the weight stack at the end of every rep. It’s more than just bad etiquette, it’s a sign you’re skipping the eccentric portion of the lift, which is exactly where the gains are made.

What starts as a rant turns into a mini masterclass on training smarter. If you're serious about training with purpose (and not just trying to annoy everyone on the gym floor), this one’s for you.
