This method works fast and without injury and saves lots of gym time. I've been been training with wights for 25 years and have just about tried everything. Thiis book was very well presented and easy to understand and execute. I have been doing the "Slow Burn" version of a slow motion wieht traing routine for several years and this is another version.
The funny thing is, in high-school we sometimes did reverse lifts (we called "negatives") that basically did what power-of-ten does and everyone agreed they were more effective (and far more painful, because of the burn) than traditional lifting. I've been doing a one-hour a week workout following the power-of-ten guidelines and I've never felt stronger. There are also some excellent sections on how to work multiple muscle groups in the same exercise and some good work-out ideas for people who travel or who may not have easy access to equipment. This book explains the science behind why the burn is good and how you can maximize it. As background, I lifted weights for four years in high-school, and on-and-off later, using the 4-set per muscle group, three times a week lifting technique that is traditionally taught. I feel a bit foolish to learn that I could have expended 10% of that effort to better results (and averted an annoying tricep pull my senior year).
This was all I did for 12 weeks, my diet was ok, and I still won the women's division of the body transformation contest at my gym. A few years ago, I started using the Power of 10 workout. I started with a trainer to understand the method, but then I pretty much followed the program in the book.
It provides step by step details on how to produce the kinds of desired results. The book is easy to follow and it works.
