 This
120 page book is no ordinary reference. Here you will find step
by step procedures to determine the ideal measure of exercise,
a detailed look at the fitness industry and periodization research,
how to prepare for longevity in strength training, the mechanism
behind growth, relationships of fundamental principles, irrational
strength training methods, an overview of physics and what the
laws state about proper and safe exercise, and more.
"The authors of this
book have taken a great leap forward in recognizing how valuable
resistance training is and how to achieve its benefits. This
is an important work that they have undertaken." Dr. R.M. Kudlak, M.D.
The
Blind Leading the Blind
Muscle magazines, fitness books, and the
Internet are doing a fine job of confusing millions of individuals.
What you have is advice given by those with unusual genetics
who can thrive on nearly any program, steroid users, and academics
who (for the most part) don't even exercise, or partake in exercise
casually at best. The worst part is that the information is inconsistent
and sometimes contradictory... not only among the expert sources,
but even among themselves! Understanding fundamental principles
of exercise, and how they relate to one another is key.
Periodization
or Equivocation?
An example of irrationality is periodization.
Yes, exercise needs to be cycled in demands for optimum results,
but the direction that Western periodizationalists employ is
fraught with errors. Five researchers looked at studies from
the past two decades and they concluded that periodization, with
its high volume and sometimes complicated programming, is no
better than traditional brief, intense exercise performed for
a fraction of the time.
"I do think there's
simply very little, if any, evidence to support the plans based
on periodization ideas. I won't call it a theory; it's not." Richard A. Winett, Ph.D.
How
Much Exercise Is Required?
To discover an ideal measure of exercise,
one must look at the big picture objectively. A person would
not begin with 20 sets for a muscle, but the least amount possible
or that seems reasonable and slowly build up. A person would
not arbitrarily perform a certain number of repetitions, but
take into consideration movement cadence and overall tension
time relative to a muscle's response to exercise. A person would
then need to determine an appropriate rate of frequency relative
to exercise volume, and these two factors would need to take
into account intensity of effort. Observing patterns from one
workout to the next then would indicate if the total measure
needs to increase, stay the same or possibly decrease. That is
Rational Strength Training and that is what you learn
in this book.
Casebook
Bonus!
Included are over 20 pages and 20 case
studies of fitness enthusiasts and professionals who have demonstrated
