To take it further there have been times when you add a measly 5 lbs and can't make the lift for what ever reason, so you walk away, regroup, take a sip of water and hit it again and then succeed. You didn't get stronger in that 5,10 or 15 min. That is the point I was trying to make.
Um we aren't talking about the golgi tendon, or women whose kids get trapped underneath cars and how they somehow lift them off...

We are talking about people in the gym lifting max weights.

When people miss lifts, then attempt again and make them its a form correction....always. And while I understand your point of the mind getting the body to do it, ultimately it is the body doing it and thus a physical attribute not a mental one.

Highlighted the best part
