Why
do we recommend “SuperSlow® ”?
See the PowerPoint Presentation for more Info.
It
is Safe: SuperSlow®
is a form of High Intensity Strength training which was
developed in the 1980’s by Ken and Brenda Hutchins as part
of the Nautilus Osteoporosis project for frail older ladies with
decreased bone density. Because it is slow it is safe.
It
is Effective: Because
it is intense, SuperSlow®
provides the stimulation needed to cause the muscles to get
stronger and often bigger. We will gradually increase the
amount of weight in the sessions to insure that you continue
to make progress.
It
is Timewise: The
most common reason people do not exercise, besides the fact
that most “exercise” does not produce the results we want,
is lack of time. When
you are doing proper exercise, it is amazing how little time
it takes to get results.
Two 20-25 minute workouts a week is really all it
takes.
It
Combats “Sarcopenia”:
Quite
possibly the most significant silent epidemic facing
our aging population is “Sarcopenia’ or the age related
loss of muscle mass. As
we lose muscle we gradually lose our ability to perform what
are termed “Activities of Daily Living”.
This leads to various levels of functional disability.
In addition, loss of muscle lowers our Basal Metabolic
Rate and if we don’t change our diet we gradually gain fat!!
For anti-aging purposes, muscle mass maintenance and
strength are critical!
Your
Metabolism Will Improve: Increasing
your strength and muscle mass and losing fat will greatly
improve your lipid profile, glucose tolerance, bone density,
Basal Metabolic Rate and combined with the Zone Diet, you will
markedly reduce your risk of chronic diseases.

SuperSlow®
Seminar Description
The
1 ˝ hour
PowerPoint Multimedia Seminar includes the following topics
and detailed handouts of the seminar are included. It is
intended to explain the "Whys" and the Science behind SuperSlow®
Strength Training.
"Why
all Physical Activity is Not Exercise"
You will be perfectly clear about what the definition of
effective exercise is after this seminar.
"Why
Muscle is King"
There is no dispute, to avoid loss of functional ability as we
age we must maintain
Muscle
Mass.
This
seminar nails this point!!
"How
and Why Genetics Limit Us"
This seminar explains the Known genetic factors which limit
our strength, size and body habitus. It explains why
most of us, no matter how hard we try, will ever grace the
cover of a Muscle Magazine.
Answers the question "Are you White or Dark
Meat" and everything you ever wanted to know about muscle
Fiber types.
"The
Physiologic Why" The
ins and outs of ATP production and why it is so important to
improve our ability to burn fat as a energy source. You
will understand the adaptations our muscles undergo in
response to intense strength training.
"Finally,
How!!"
A review of the SuperSlow® Philosophy of Strength training
based on the principles outlined by Ken Hutchins, founder of
the SuperSlow® Guild. A video of a generic workout is
shown. "Train to near death, rest,
repeat."
