Super Slow or super crap?
Super slow training method------
This sounds like super crap to me! 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 Workout 1 squats, dips, pull downs or chins, shrugs. Rest 4-10 days Workout 2 squats, dips, pull downs or chins, shrugs Rest 4-10 days Workout 3 deadlifts, overhead press or incline press, one arm db rows, curls optional. (Ab work is also optional on workout days) Repeat the cycle.

Any program you do at 110% with a proper diet will put muscle on you and give you strength, there is no one program for everyone, as you get older and see more you will find this out and trying other programs you will see for yourself...

SUPER-SLOW training does not work for putting on muscle....I wasted a year of my training career finding this out for myself some years ago.JnJ23, fortunately you're young enough that if you wanted to try this style out for 6 months or so it won't set you back too much but EVERYONE I know that has dabbled with this training style has lost muscle
