Time Under Tension: Greater Metabolic Response The first big benefit you’ll get from monitoring your time under tension and then working to improve it is an enhanced metabolic response. The more time under tension you’re placing that muscle under, generally the greater the growth hormone release will be. Additionally, if you have a large time under tension, you’ll also really jumpstart the metabolism since you are making the body do so much work and will be creating quite a high degree of micro tears in the tissues, therefore this will cause the body to expend more calories once the workout is finished. Both of these factors working together is perfect for both increasing muscle definition and burning off body fat.
