Tracking REPS WITH A PAUSE

REPS WITH PAUSE- todays workout called for barbell hip thrusters- 8 reps with 2 sec pause at the top great way to work on strength but really hard to keep track of your reps while counting! S So here's my trick!
Set up a timer- yes, use a timer. When you get tired, your one Mississippi, two Mississippi, quickly turns into one, two! Done! & Look at the timer and count the seconds in your head.
Then use your finger to count the reps. Sometimes I'll even say "one, two. One." Indicating that's rep one after a two second pause.
ℹ️ Trainer tip: try to place your timer in a place that's in line with your eye sight for the lift. For example, you don't want the timer on hip thrusters to be straight to the side. If you can, place it about bench height in front of you or have a partner hold the phone. If your gym isn't busy, you can prop your phone against your water bottle on a bench. Worst case scenario, you're counting in your head. But don't be too quick to count!
Hold that pause for those GAINZ!
