no it actually makes perfect sense. by keeping the resistance on the muscle longer, more of it needs to help to get the weight up as more of it fatigues. so if i can push 250lbs on bench the way i described, would i get better results (size is good, but mostly interested in strength) if i used less weight and did it as you described?

I will put it this way, I always use a 4/1/4/1 cadence. Four second positive, 1 second pause, 4 second negative, 1 second pause. For obvious reasons some movement will have a faster cadence for the mere fact that the ROM is short (like wrist curls or calf raises).Originally posted by MDAM21

What would happen to alien8r then if they did? Personally I think it's a waste of space since I don't use it. But I guess 90% of the board does. Plus it helps to bring in new blood.Originally posted by MDAM21

What does everyone else think!
Hey, did you get the pic out of Monster Muscle? Scot Mendelson is nuts. The Sept. 2003 magazine says he went from 269 to 300 lbs in less than 12 months by consuming an extra 7500 calories ON TOP of what he was already eating. wtfComment
