SLOW TRAINING METHODS

Power of Ten: The Once-a-Week, Slow Motion Fitness Revolution book by Adam Zuckerman (Once-a-week? ... sorry had to add that comment)

Slow Burn: Burn Fat Faster by Exercising Slower book by Stu Mittleman

The Slow Burn Fitness Revolution: The Slow Motion Exercise That Will Change Your Body in 30 Minutes a Week book by Fredrick Hahn

The Super Slow Exercise Guild (Official Website) and Super Slow: The Ulitimate Exercise Protocol book by Ken Hutchins

BEWARE: Superslow training facilities with limited equipment charging $60-$80 for a 20 min session. Programs don't work enough muscle groups in just 20 minutes. Try doing a 90 to 120 minute full-body workout (or at least 60 minutes) with six to eleven different exercises including more muscle groups. Don't totally drop traditionally paced workouts over the long schedule of fitness routines. Watch out for programs that try to supercede all other methods. Variety is good. Telling you what you want to hear is just that. NOTE: Slow training in progressive resistance exercise routines can be a successful method of building muscle or causing hypertrophy. Slow or lower intensity training in cardiovascular routines may burn fat more efficiently, but it probably does not burn as many total calories, wherein the percentage of fat calories burned may be lower as well. Again, variety is a good thing.
