Power factor Training and Static Contraction Training go hand n hand.

I bought this book years ago when I started doing partial reps for a powerlifting program I was on. When I stumbled across this book on a discount rack when we actually had book stores. I read it several times through the years and to this day I still work partial reps. I am not sure if anyone should use it for more that 6 weeks but your joints and age will tell you when you want to do some full range movements. From my experience this type of lifting goes great with of course the big movements like Squats, Deadlifts Bench press, shoulder press, close grip bench press and Shurgs. And anything else you want to do. Definitely allow enough rest between workouts and quality food. From my experience This is a program that requires a true diet carbs protein and fat . Extra joint supplements, fish oil, a good multi vitamin and good old fashion Dessicated Liver tabs to help make up protein needed in the diet all would highly recommend. You might want to do two body parts on this like; shoulders n legs for 4 to 6 weeks Then back n chest for 4 to 6 weeks Good luck Oh buy the way on my last chest workout I did first 2 sets of 5 at 255 and then 275 for 3 on my partial rep - benchpress at 52 years old - 3 weeks before this I was doing 3 sets of 65lbs dumbbells for 10 reps on my dumbbell benchpress and that's on an incline. Yea it works. Power factor Training and Static Contraction Training go hand n hand. Buy all the books you can find on both types of Training you will not go wrong.
