What is SuperSlow?

SuperSlow is an exercise protocol that gives you a deeply demanding workout in about 20 minutes. A typical workout involves four to six weight machines, each targeting a specific muscle group. Weights are slowly raised in 10 seconds and lowered in 10 seconds until the targeted muscles reach total muscular fatigue in about 1 to 3 minutes per machine.

When a muscle is pushed past total fatigue, a growth stimulus is produced in the body: "Make more muscle." With adequate rest, the body will produce more muscle. Adding even just a few pounds of muscle on to the body can result in an increased metabolism, improved body shape, and an overall feeling of well being.

The SuperSlow protocol of lifting and lowering weights ten times slower than traditional strength training does two things: 1) it makes the exercise harder on your muscles 2) it's safer on your joints

1)Harder: While making the exercise harder might not seem like a good thing at first glance, it truly is a tremendous advantage. The reason is that harder exercise is a more effective stimulus for the body to make positive changes, and therefore, you only need one to two exercise sessions per week to get the best results.

2)Safer: The real danger for injury during exercise is not from the amount of weight being lifted, it is actually from the amount of force. Force is a product of how quickly the weight is lifted. Even a light weight that is lifted quickly will produce far greater impact on a joint than a heavier weight lifted with minimal acceleration and velocity.

SuperSlow is unique because it's the only exercise protocol in existence that allows greater intensity (and better results) without a greater risk of injury. Men and women of all ages and abilities can benefit from SuperSlow.
