SUPER SLOOOOWWWW!!

All reps on all exercises will be performed in the 3-5 rep range. When you can perform more than 5 reps it is time to increase the weight. Rep speed is 10 seconds positive and 5 seconds negative.

On all pushing movements stop just short of locking out and begin the negative motion with a smooth turnaround. It is ok to pause in the contracted position on pulling movements for a second or two. When you reach positive failure on all movements keep trying to move the resistance for 10 to 15 more seconds.

Rest from 4 to 10 days in between workouts. (Check out the article called The Dose-Response Relationship to Exercise by M. Doug McGuff, MD on Mentzer site mikementzer.com)
