Co-Author of Static Contraction Traing and Power Factor Training
The fact is, MOST PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA how strong they already are
nor do they realize how strong they can ultimately get. _MAXIMUM
STRENGTH_ will show you my SuperRep(tm) Static Contraction technique
of lifting weight in only your strongest, safest range of motion. If
you are an average male you'll soon be lifting weights like this:
* Bench Press: 500+ lbs. (230+ Kg)
* Deadlift:: 600+ lbs (270+ Kg)
* Leg Press: 1,500+ lbs. (680+ Kg)
Think those weights are impossible for you? Don't. I know regular
people who can double all of those lifts.
_ MAXIMUM STRENGTH_ will make you stronger than you've ever been in
your life because you'll be training a new, super-efficient way using
ultra high intensity but very brief workouts.
As a consumer it can be a little confusing when looking at different
ways to train for strength. The truth is any training method that
involves lifting heavy weights will work to some degree and for some
period of time. What _MAXIMUM STRENGTH_ offers you is a method that
requires the minimum possible time investment and, because of
meaningful measurement, the ability to sustain your strength and
muscle mass month after month and year after year.
_ MAXIMUM STRENGTH_ is loaded with revolutionary, proven knowledge
and techniques that will allow you to quickly and efficiently
transform your body to whatever level of fitness and muscularity you
desire and then maintain it.
In a moment I'll tell you how I came to know so much about how a
human can get very strong very quickly. But first I want you to know
what I mean by "stronger than you've ever been." I MEAN, MALE OR
FEMALE - ANY AGE - I CAN SHOW YOU HOW TO GET STRONGER THAN YOU WERE IN
HIGH SCHOOL, STRONGER THAN YOU WERE IN COLLEGE, STRONGER THAN YOU WERE
THAT SUMMER YOU SPENT WORKING IN CONSTRUCTION, OR ON THE FARM OR
WHATEVER!
And I'll guarantee you this, too. On every exercise you've ever
performed, from bench press to barbell curls to lat pulldowns, you
name it...you will achieve new personal records in all of them.
And, ladies, please don't be intimidated by the foregoing. _MAXIMUM
STRENGTH_ is every bit as much for you as it is for any man, from
total beginner to powerful athlete. In fact, Chapter 3 is called
_"WOMEN, MUSCLE AND FAT LOSS"_ and it specifically talks about how
women have been lied to on the subject of strength training.
WHO AM I, AND WHY SHOULD YOU LISTEN TO ME?
My name is Pete Sisco and I am the co-developer of POWER FACTOR
TRAINING and STATIC CONTRACTION TRAINING and the co-author of six
books on rational, scientific methods of bodybuilding. It is estimated
over 200,000 people worldwide have trained using my methods.
These best-selling bodybuilding books have been written about in
all of the best fitness and bodybuilding publications. Over nearly 15
years I've conducted studies on athletes from bodybuilders to golfers
to determine what exercises and training methods really work in the
gym. Every step of the way I've applied the laws of physics and the
analysis of mathematics to objectively measure what works best!
I also created a training website called MyStrengthCoach.com where
thousands of my customers have used my training methods to lift over
1/2 a billion (yes, billion!) pounds of weight. It's hard to imagine
how much weight that is...it's like lifting over 66,000 GMC Suburbans
loaded with 500,000 people! Who cares? The point is I have accumulated
a lot of data over the years and I've tested every important
hypothesis in order to find better and better ways to build strength
and transform your body in the most efficient way possible: with
shorter workouts spaced farther apart.
So everything I'm about to show you is backed up by real data that
proves its validity. But I think you'll see the common sense of it
without going through all the data and explanation that is in those
six books I mentioned. Because it's really very simplebut:
WITHOUT HAVING THIS KNOWLEDGE YOU'LL FAIL IN THE GYMAFTER WASTING
MONTHS IN FRUSTRATION AND LOST MOTIVATION (does that sound familiar?)
Yet this strategy is so simple, because it's based on three
fundamental laws of human muscle growth. And I'll tell you exactly
what those three laws are:
LAW #1: Muscle grows in response to high intensity overload. That's
why we lift weights. Because just pumping your arm up and down all day
won't increase its muscle size or strength. But if you hold a heavy
weight in your hand while you pump up and down, your muscle has to
work at a higher rate of intensityand that triggers new growth.
That's easy to understand, right? So if you want to increase the
size, strength and tone of, for example, your chest musclesyou'd do a
high intensity chest exercise. But guess what? Nobody seems to know
what exercises really deliver high intensity. Why can I say that?
Because I actually measured the intensity of the ten most popular
chest exercises and I know which ones really deliver. _LOOK AT THIS
CHART:_
This chart shows the relative intensity of the ten most common
chest exercises. Every time I go in the gym I see guys doing number 2
"to really blast the chest." And number 4 is probably the most
recommended chest exercise of all time! What a joke!! As you can see
for yourself, numbers 2 & 4 deliver only a fraction of the intensity
of the best chest exercises. So doing the others is a waste of your
time and effort because they can't possibly deliver the results of the
top exercisesand this isn't my opinion, it's a law of physics!
I also used multiple test subjects to scientifically determine the
most effective and efficient exercises for biceps, triceps, forearms,
upper back, lower back, shoulders, traps, abs and legs.
Knowing the importance of intensity and the exact exercises that
deliver it best is the first step in engineering the ultimate training
program. Now we need to know the second law:
LAW #2: The higher the intensity of muscular output, the shorter
the duration must be. This is another easy principle to understand.
For example, humans can run really fastbut only for about 100 meters.
Or, humans can run for 26+ milesbut only at a slower speed. Fine.
Nowcan you guess how this law applies to maximizing the intensity of
muscular output during a workout in the gym? Since I absolutely love
graphs, I'm sneaking in another one
If you want a very high intensity workout, it MUST be very short.
But how many times have you been told to do an enormous workout
routine that takes 1+ hours? How can that possibly have the level of
intensity of a routine lasting a total of 1 MINUTE ? It can't. Again,
this is not opinionthis is a universal law.
OK, do you see where we're going so far? First you need to know the
very best exercises for delivering the highest overload to each muscle
group. Then you need to use those exercises in the best possible way
to maximize overload and minimize the time spent doing it. And that's
very good news! It literally means short workouts are more beneficial
and efficient than long workouts. Wow! But it gets even better when
you learn the third law:
LAW #3: The more intense your workouts, the more rest you need
between workouts. And since the way you keep progressing toward your
muscle size and strength goals is to increase intensity on each
workoutthat means you train less and less frequently. Again, look at
it visually:
With a low intensity workout, you don't need very much rest time.
That's why so many people can start out lifting weights two or three
times per week and make some progress. But as you get stronger, your
workouts get more and more intenseand you absolutely, positively need
more time off. Yet how many times have you been told to keep training
three days a week? That strategy must ultimately failit leads to
"plateaus" "staleness" thinking you are a "hardgainer" and all the
other maladiesincluding fatigue and susceptibility to colds and
fluthat bodybuilders and athletes fall prey tobecause universal
biological laws cannot be broken. Ever. (P.S. The truly desperate turn
to injecting illegal drugs as a means to cheat their body's metabolism
and safeguards. Ultimately, that will fail also. It has to.)
Why gamble on testing gym lore and bodybuilding myths? I've just
shown you the 1-2-3 of rational, effective and efficient strength
training. Yet there is so much "advice" offered in gyms by people who
have never scientifically tested any of the advice they give out. By
listening to the free advice you can become paralyzed and totally
frustrated!
PRINCIPLES PROVEN BY OVER 200,000 PEOPLE LIKE YOU!
These aren't principles I've just worked out "on paper." These are
principles proven in the gym by over 200,000 bodybuilders, athletes
and just regular folks. Take a look at the results of one of the
studies using Static Contraction Training.
In just 10 weeks of Static Contraction, trainees (who were
hardcore bodybuilders who had been lifting "heavy" for a long time and
averaged about 38 years of age) achieved the following average gains:
(If you are younger or have been training less than these hardcore
lifters, you'll likely do BETTER.)
* a 51.3% increase static strength
* a 27.6% increase in one-rep max in full range of motion!
(without doing full range lifts for 10 weeks!)
* a 34.3% increase in ten-rep max in full range of motion! (see
above)
* gained 9.0 pounds of new muscle (one subject gained 29 pounds of
muscle!)
* lost 4.9 pounds of fat
* gained 1/2 inch on each biceps
* gained 1.1 inches on chest
* gained 1.2 inches on shoulders
* lost 0.4 inches on waist
All of this was done with workouts containing less than 2
