Warm up 5-10 min before starting and stretch afterward.

why it works
3 key reasons
Short rest + compound lifts = EPOC effect. You keep burning calories hours after the workout.
More tension at peak contraction and less joint stress than free weights.
5 days with good nutrition and sleep = maximum progression. Only for those who can keep it up.
