Why Strength Train Slow?

In traditional weight training, people spend many hours in a gym to lift weights. Weightlifters use momentum and gravity to help lift heavier weights and lift them faster. In doing so, they run the risk of repetetive trauma to the joints, ligaments, and tendons.

With the Slow Motion Strength Training method, the philosophy is to be safe, effective and efficient. The primary emphasis to building strength quickly is exercising slowly, while minimizing the effects of momentum and gravity. The deliberate slowness forces your muscles to work harder.
