  1. Negative repetition

    A negative repetition (negative rep) is the repetition of a technique in weight lifting in which the lifter performs the eccentric phase of a lift. Instead of pressing the weight up slowly, in proper form, a spotter generally aids in the concentric, or lifting, portion of the repetition while the lifter slowly performs the eccentric phase for 3–6 seconds.

Negative reps promote hypertrophy greatly because they allow the muscles to experience extreme trauma. Everyone can lift with more weight doing negative reps. Negative reps should generally not be used more than twice a week.
