So far, studies have gone back and forth on whether you should use a slow or fast weightlifting tempo, with most showing small differences in tempo don’t seem to matter much one way or another. For example, several meta-analyses have found that a slow weightlifting tempo (> 2 seconds) was equally effective for gaining strength and muscle as a fast weightlifting tempo (
