I've been doing some research on this and the concept seems really beneficial. You need less reps with less weight for maximum muscle benefit. Google it for more info but here is the basic cut:
example: lateral raises- take 10 seconds to lift the weight, hold it at the top for 2 seconds, and take 10 more seconds to lower.
same thing for bicep curls, tricep extensions, you name it. And you rarely need over 8 reps, I think the number I kept finding was 5 reps
