Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Triphasic Training? It is the pinnacle of sports performance training. Created by world renown coach, Cal Dietz, Triphasic Training breaks down dynamic, athletic movements into their three components (eccentric, isometric, and concentric), and maximizes performance gains by applying stress to the athlete in a way that allows for the continuous development of strength, speed, and power. Who uses Triphasic Training: Everyone! From elite level athletes to absolute beginners, the triphasic method of training allows for maximal performance gains in minimal time. For that reason professional athletes from all backgrounds seek out Coach Dietz each off-season to train with his triphasic system. Coach Dietz has worked with hundreds of athletes from the NFL, NHL, and MLB, as well as several dozen Olympic athletes in track and field, swimming, and hockey. What the book is about: Triphasic Training was originally a digital book with over 3,000 hyperlinks and 6 hours of video lectures, showing the reader exactly how to perform every exercise and apply the training methods.

Simply scroll in the PDF to the page that you are reading in the book and it will have every hyperlink and video that is on that page. The book contains over 350 pages, divided clearly into 2 parts: the “why” and the “what”. The first three sections go through the physiological basis for the Triphasic method, undulated block periodization, and general biological applications of stress. The authors will explain how to incorporate the Triphasic methods into existing programs, with complete descriptions on adapting it to virtually any scenario. Sections 4 through 7 are devoted entirely to programming, with over 3,000 exercises and 52 weeks of programs for numerous different sports. Included in the programming section are: Over 3,000 exercises, each hyperlinked to a video tutorial that shows you exactly how to perform the exercise. 5 separate 24-week training programs built for either 6 day, 5 day, 4 day, 3 day, or 2 day models.

Book excerpt: Find more similar titles and get a free catalog at www.StrongmanBooks.com The classic book on Muscle Control from one of the best ever at the art, Maxick, the oldtime strongman. If you're looking to develop tremendous will power, control over your muscles, the ability to tense and relax at will then this book is a must. Born as a small child and attacked with rickets, he shortly became a robust young lad through his practice of muscle control. He went on to become one of the strongest people of his time, while maintaining a very small bodyweight. Here are Maxick's Amazing Feats Of Strength at a Weight of less than 147lbs: Right Hand Military Press, 112 pounds Right Hand Snatch, 165 pounds Right Hand Swing with Dumbbell, 150 pounds. Right Hand Jerk, 240 pounds Two Hands Military Press, 230 pounds Two Hands Clean and Jerk with Barbell, 272 pounds. Two Hands Continental Jerk with Barbell, 340 pounds In a contest at finger-pulling, in which Maxick was "unbeatable," Maxick could pull a 200-pound opponent clear across the table that separated the two men. He pressed van Diggelen (185 pounds) overhead 16 times with his right arm, while holding in his left hand a glass of beer full to the brim, without spilling a drop. Earlier that same day, he had pressed Fred Storbeek (205 pounds), who was then the heavyweight British Empire Boxing Champion, 11 times with his right arm. Holding van Diggelen aloft on one arm, Maxick ran up two flights of stairs with him and then ran down the two flights. Then standing on his hands, he in that position ran up the two flights and down again. Pretty amazing stuff right? And Maxick attributes his strength to muscle control. Plus here is what Maxick has to say regarding the Mind-Muscle connection: "THE SERIOUS student of muscle-control will soon become aware of the fact that his willpower had become greater, and his mental faculties clearer and capable of increased concentration. Thus it will be observed that the controlling of the muscles reacts upon the mind and strengthens the mental powers in exactly the same proportion that the control of the muscles strengthens the body and limbs." Here are the subject headings found within this book: Myself My Early Years Attacked by Rickets A Weakling Among the Robust A Momentous Happening Muscle-Control My Health Improves Work, but nourishment Contraction How Muscle Control was Revealed to Me How Mechanical Exercise May Hinder Muscle Development The Case of the Stonemason Muscle-Relaxation What is Meant by Muscle Control Muscle-Binding I Become a Champion Passive Condition of Relaxation I Take Up Weight-Lifting I Win an Open Championship All Three Championships My First Pupil I Come to England Maxick's Lifting Will-Power and Muscle-Control A Few Hints You'll also find 21 exercises that cover the body form the head to the toes. Although this is the best and most famous Maxick wrote a number of other books like Great Strength with Muscle Control, How to Become a Great Athlete and Health, Strength & Will Power.

Download or read book ISOMETRIC and FLEXIBILITY TRAINING written by Rahul Mookerjee and published by 0 Excuses Fitness. This book was released on 2020-11-27 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dear Reader, The Great Gama of India needs no introduction, does he? Or Bruce Lee, perhaps. He needs no introduction either, does he? I dont think so my friend. But what is not known, or so widely known, is that Lee was an active advocate of the way the Gama trained, and an active advocate of the exercises I have put out in my books and courses. Hindu pushups. Fingertip pushups (which he is pretty much the only person that I’ve read of that came close to truly mastering this great, great exercise). Pull-ups. And so forth. But what is NOT known is that all these three men mentioned above, and ALL the strongmen of yore, or most – used a little known secret in their training that allowed them to catapult their already scary strength and fitness (and flexiblity) levels through the roof. This secret has been known throughout the ages by those that did it. In fact, it’s sheer efficacy is quite literally – the stuff of LEGEND (is it any wonder that the legends all practiced it?) It not only built freakish levels of strength, but strengthened one’s bones, muscles and tendons BEYOND belief. And above all, it … ah, but we’ll get to the REAL benefit and the reason YOU want this course the MOST soon enough! For now, suffice it to say that (much like a lot of the other training methods I advocate that are the best EVER when it comes to strength, health, fitness and conditioning from the INSIDE OUT (not the other way around! – it doesnt work that way!)) these methods have all been cast by the way side in favor of modern day “machine sheen” and boobybuilding. And the pumping and toning, and irrational “trying to outdo the other” in lifts that by their very nature are not just harmful to the body, but add little, if any, functional strength and fitness and benefit to YOU! Big mistake, my friend, and one I aim to rectify HERE, and RIGHT NOW. What is it, you might ask now. What are these methods? Well, I’ll tell you … but first, a bit of a blast from the past. This was known to me before, but a reader of my books and courses let me know what I already did in a manner way better than I could ever say it! I have to admit that I’m no “expert” when it comes to how Gama or any other Hindu wrestlers train/trained but I remember reading a book about Joseph Greenstein “the mighty atom” which details the conversation Gama had with Greenstein when they met in America when Greenstein was a young boy. Greenstein asked Gama how he got so strong and Gama replied that he wrestled a tree every day (isometric strength/endurance) and that he tried with all his might to throw that tree to the ground, to which Greenstein asked did you ever succeed in throwing that tree to the ground? Gama laughed and said “no” little one but, after you have wrestled a tree human beings are not a problem, which is probably a big contributor to why Gama retired undefeated. And it’s true, my friend! And whats more, the “Atom” himself did a lot of isometric training. For those not familiar with the Mighty Atom, here are a few of his feats – Pulling an airplane with his HAIR once Bending horseshoes for fun and at strongman events with his bare hands Driving spikes through … METAL with the PALM of his hand! Biting through NAILS Bending steel bars with his hand … He was also 5’4”, weighed in at 150 lbs soaking wet, and therefore got the name the “Mighty Atom” – and was pound for pound one of the STRONGEST men alive at the time, if not THE STRONGEST MAN! He was also a huge, huge advocate of isometric training. Alexander Zass, the “Amazing” Samson strongman of yore … and in case you haven’t heard of him? Zass was born in 1888. While still a young man, Zass’ strength training included “bending green branches” i.e. Tree branches! During World War One, heas taken as a prisoner of war four times, but ended up escaping EACH AND EVERY TIME! How? Certainly not by wining any pardons! As a prisoner, he quite literally worked out on a daily (and then some) basis by pushing and pulling against the STEEL bars of his cell (and they made ’em REAL back then to say the least!). And if you were to conclude that his escapes involved him ‘breaking chains and bending bars’ – – well, you’d be SPOT ON, bro! If it worked for the Gama, the Atom, Charles Atlas (him of the famous isometric training course), Bruce Lee, Alexander Zass and the Gama, will it work for you? Hell yes it will! You will not just build strength through these and get better at your existing exercises, rep counts etc. You will FEEL LIKE A BILLION BUCKS while doing it, and that alone is worth the price of admission! Not only that, you’ll feel more spiritually “connected” to the universe as you BREATHE right and “melt” into the stretches. Problems will fade away. You will become “at peace with yourself” and “at One with the Universe”. And just in case you think that was IT, here is a more exhaustive list of the BENEFITS you can expect from this course – Massive increase in brute STRENGTH over a period of time, and betteer performance in all your exercises. Increased FLEXIBLITY throughout your entire body, and vastly improved health and digestion as a result. Insomnia will be a thing of the past. Get on a regular program involving stretching, isometrics and LOOSENING the joints and you’ll sleep as well as you did when you were a BABY! (no, I’m not kidding!) Increased fat loss around the core and midsection. There is great truth to the saying “stretch and burn FAT!” Increased muscular definition all over the body. Improved bone strength. You’ll never have to worry about oesteoporosis or bone decay, for one, once you get on programs such as these! As stated above so many times, you’ll not only look good – great, actually – but you’ll FEEL GREAT – and you’ll radiate happiness all around you, but most importantly, YOU will be happy internally and relaxed! Yours muscles will become loose and limber – and STRONGER than ever at the same time, “coiled and ready”, “ready to pounce at a moment’s notice”, much like a tiger or other wild animals! Increased tendon and connective tissue strength and flexibility. It’s well known that this is a weak area for most, and is also the reason why there are so many injuries out there in many regards. Strengthen ALL weak areas. You’re only as strong as your WEAKEST link, my friend, and my programs/routines here will DO that, and then some. A sense of “sang froid” and “calmness” that attracts SUCCESS in all its shapes, forms and guises to you when you follow a regular stretching/loosening program such as I’ve laid out for you. It’s well known that excess stress in the muscles, joints etc affects not only the body, but the most important muscle the MIND as well, and when you get on this program – you can FORGET about stress, period. A few minutes of doing these movement will leave you feeling “loose and limber”, “light as a feather” and “cracking with energy” – and those are but a few of the descriptors I’ve used for myself after these exercises/routines! And much, much more my friend. You’ll find out for yourself soon enough! So, now it’s time to say what I should have at the start. Congratulations on your upcoming purchase, my friend. It truly is one of the best purchases you’ll ever make! Best, Rahul Mookerjee
