Slow the Aging Process Now

Being physically fit may extend your life regardless of your body's fat content, according to a new study. Scientists looked at more than 2,600 men and women, age 60 or older, who were physically fit and active. The researchers found that the least-fit adults had a death rate 4 times higher than the fittest group.

Seventy percent of aging is voluntary, not biologically mandated. We can skip some aspects of aging until the very end. 50 percent of all serious illness and accidents from age 40 to death can be avoided. We can take control of the pace at which we age.

As we age, we send signals to our bodies. Either we grow or we atrophy and decay. As we get older the signals are to atrophy. But we can send growing signals to our body through physical activity.

What is Super Slow Resistance Training?

There are many different forms of resistance training. One form of resistance excercise that has drawn attention is superslow resistance training. Evidence of increasing interest is becoming more apparent with the rise of internet references and the availability of superslow certifications. This form of training has been presented as a safe and effective means of building strength in both beginning and advanced weight training. Superslow training, originated in 1982 by Ken Hutchins, was developed through an osteoporosis study with older women because of the need to to utilize a safer speed for subjects to perform the resistance exercises. The result was the beginning of a new resistance training technique, which became known as superslow strength training.

In a standard Nautilus Training protocol, 8-12 repetitions are performed. Each rep represents a two-second concentric action, a one second pause, followed by a 4 second eccentric action. The total time for the set requires approximately 55-85 seconds for completion. The superslow protocol represents 4-6 reps consisting of a 10-second concentric phase followed by a four-second eccentric phase. This protocol also requires about 55-85 seconds for completion. One possible advantage of superslow training is that it involves less momentum, resulting in more evenly applied muscle force throughout the range of motion.

Participants work with a trainer to lift weights 10 seconds up and 10 seconds down - on a half dozen or more machines. No jogging, aerobics or other strain is required. Compared with conventional workouts, superslow is super fast.
