i always do at least a 3-4 second negative anymore.. it just feels right to me.. if my negative portion is good my positive is good.. i tried faster rep cadence over the years and it does work.. but my shoulders and elbows took a beating.. with slow negatives the set feels more exhaustive and tight..

LOL yea my training partners are both dying from doing everything in a slow negative fashion. We did hammer strength pulldowns today with a slow negative on the upward motion then explode and squeeze at the bottom, the last set we did a 2 second hold and squeeze at the bottom on every rep and when i stood up i honestly thought i was going to pass out, i know im dieting but my young workout partner almost hit the floor also after his set ...... shit was killer!

Now I wish I had training partners like this!! I do slow negatives and have some pretty grueling sets. They just rep stuff out as quick as they can and call it good. It cracks me up when sometimes I do really slow negatives on bench and they ask me if I'm having an off day or what from not being able to do as much weight as like when you rep them out. I'm just like UH-DUH.... LOL

I also like this

And negative portion allows me to feel of everything ok in my joints .. Im 28 but my elbows and wrists are like the ones of a 70 years old man lol so I feel much more secure with a slow negative part
