"Occasionally revolutionary ideas disrupt the physical sciences. Such is the case with Power Factor Training." -- Flex magazine "After using the Power Factor Training system, I can't believe I ever used anything else. All the training I used in the past is now obsolete." -- Chris Duffy, Nationals Heavyweight Champion "Power Factor Training has picked up where Arthur Jones, Ellington Darden, and Mike Mentzer left off--and carried high-intensity training to its furthest possible level. I recommend it to all of my students who are interested in building maximum muscle mass--drug free!" --Dr. David Staplin, University of Minnesota In Power Factor Training: A Scientific Approach to Building Lean Muscle, bodybuilding and fitness pioneers Peter Sisco and John Little introduced a revolutionary new bodybuilding system that showed you how to develop your muscles to their fullest potential in the shortest time possible. Based on effective, scientifically proven principles of exercise, startling new research on recovery ability, and the importance of high intensity for stimulating muscle growth, the Power Factor Training system revealed how building a massively muscular body need not take years to accomplish. The response to Power Factor Training was overwhelming, so much so that readers demanded fuller Power Factor Training programs to isolate exercises for specific body parts. Power Factor Specialization: Abs &amp; Legs provides exact, meaningful measurements for all shoulder exercises and back exercises and compares the intensity, or Power Factor, of each exercise. Complete with charts, graphs, and photos, this book enables you, at a glance, to see what exercises are truly the best (and which ones are the worst!) for stimulating maximum muscle growth in your shoulders and back. For example, for your back workout, why perform bent-arm dumbbell pullovers when they provide only 34 percent of the intensity of close-grip underhand chin-ups?

Static Contraction Training

Little,John

Golf is a sport that has largely overlooked the critical role of strength training. It's a law of physics, however, that greater strength drives the ball a greater distance and that a stronger golfer is a better golfer. From a subtle wink of an eyelid to a thunderous 300-yard drive, muscles are responsible for our every motion and for generating all of our power. Now, using a totally new and amazingly successful training program, golfers can add up to 30 yards to their best drive after just six weeks--with a total workout time of only 24 minutes! Based on the extensive research of health-and-fitness authorities Peter N. Sisco and John R. Little, The Golfer's Two-Minute Workout is a super-productive and lifestyle-friendly fitness program. It takes basic, familiar exercises and illustrates how to perform them in a way that maximizes conditioning for success on the links. Certainly the quickest exercise regimen ever recommended--a mere two minutes of actual exercise time--this program is nothing short of revolutionary. Peter N. Sisco is the editor of the Training with Precision Newsletter and the author of many fitness books, including Power Factor Training. John R. Little, a fitness writer for more than 15 years, is the author of numerous fitness books, including The Warrior WIthin and Power Factor Training.
