Strength training is the best way to remain strong,
young, and independent well into old age.
How does Super Slow work?
The latest research has proven that the intensity of a workout session is the most critical aspect. It’s not how many days of the week you go to the gym or how long your workouts last, but how hard you’re willing to work. That’s how only 1-2 workout sessions a week, each under 30 minutes, can have the quickest, most effective results. Working toward momentary muscle fatigue gives the body the stimulus necessary for metabolic adaptation, stimulating muscle growth, creating stronger bones, and revving up the metabolism. The Super Slow method was created in a lab researching osteoporosis. Scientists found that the quickest way to build stronger bones was to stimulate and demand the muscles that are attached to the bones, to work. They discovered that strength training is the number one way to remain strong, young, and independent well into old age. Slow, high-intensity workouts put very little force on joints and connective tissue, which is why it's also one of the safest ways to exercise.
