Has anyone tried this type of training? From the info ive read about it, it can put an half-inch on ur biceps in 10 weeks.
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Static Contraction Training

- Start date
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Vigorous beat-off sessions will put .5" on a newbie's arms. There's no replacement for weight training.

Your supposed to use weight. Take for example: When doing bench, instead of doing the full range of motion, only push the bar 1 inch off ur chest and hold for 7 secs. Keep in mind ur supposed to use 100% or 200%(i think) more weight than usual so ur muscles reach maximum intensity.
The best answer is to try it. I am familiar with what you are writing about. Pete Sisco has a book on it, I've read it at the local Barnes and Noble.
I haven't tried it yet. I believe that it will cause overload. So many people worry about the full range of motion, but you can stimulate the muscle pretty well even when working withing a limited range of motion.
My advice: Try it, but be very careful about injury as you are using heavier weights.
I've been training in a HIT fashion, one set to failure, getting great strength results, but I went a bit too gungho, and hurt my shoulder and my back in the same day. (Shoulder from bench presses, Back from squats).
I am shifting for a while to a non-failure approach as I heal. Slightly lower weight and low reps, but more sets.

What I'm saying is a lot of things will work. But freeweights are the best, PERIOD. You can incorporate static training, I believe that kind of isometric training makes you more muscular even when you're not flexing. But you shouldn't rely solely on static training. You aren't hitting near the amount of muscle fibers as you would with full ROM.
"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

My thoughts on static contraction
1. Static contraction is undoubtedly effective but requires a buddy to spot you. And we know most people go to gyms soloflight.
2. I'd say this is a great program if you don't have so much time on your hand and really wouldn't like to miss a workout.
3. Yup, I also saw those guys in Tony Robbins video tape (Sisco et al) and I would not consider them as poster children on fitness.
4. A lot of people go to gyms and would consider that their only way of social interaction. That means practicing static contraction program will cut down at least 90% of their daily shindig.

Static
I've been doing Static Contraction training for a while now, and it's been working. I only go to the gym once a week, for the most part.
For our first two sets, me and my friend do regular sets and for the third one we do static, this is done for every type of workout. We put on the heaviest we can lift and hold it for up to 10 seconds. Most of the time, when I bring the weight down on that last set, as I bring it down, I get sort of a shock in my arms. We haven't been injured yet. I dig it.
That is the whole idea behind static contraction training, going to the gym less. We only go once a week because of the heavy weights that we lift. Such weight stimulates muscle growth and our muscels need more time to heal, so once a week is good enough.

Loverman,
Could you briefly describe how you do static contraction (I understand how it would work for bench press and shoulder press), but how do you apply it for biceps?
I have read a bit about it. How many different exercises do you do it for?
I would try it if I had a reliable lifting partner or spotter.
I like his ideas in Power Factor training too.
I think if you are in the gym less for lifting, you can do more cardio instead which is where more chicks are anyways.
How was the Tony Robbins video on it?
