Static Contraction Training
In a hurry, but would like to add muscle mass? Grab a very heavy weight and move it into your strongest range
of motion. Now, hold it there for 5 to 15 seconds. Set it down and move on to the next exercise. In the picture, I am doing
weighted dips. You can train this way with most any exercise. It really work's. In a recent study, all, that's 100% of the
test subjects gained muscle mass from this workout. Just pick one exercise per bodypart, move the weight to your strongest
range of motion where the muscles are contracted. Do not go to lock-out. Hold the weight and count slowly to 5, 10,
or15, and then set the weight down. Take a week off before training again. Pete Sisco has been pushing static contractions
for years and it appear's he has been right on the money. Give it a try! Questions? E-mail me at dan4fitness@aol.com
