Slow Twitch Workout
We have tried a different workout this summer. It is one I got from one of our trainers. It is a slow twitch workout and you do your workout on five different machines or lifts. You make each rep last 20 seconds - (10 seconds going up and 10 seconds going down). You have to discipline yourself not to go too fast. You do 5 repetitions on each lift and then you rotate to the next lift. By the time you get to your 5th rep you should be almost shaking if not. The five machines that we picked were the leg press, the seated row, the lat pull down machine, the shoulder press, and the incline bench. On your 4th or 5th lift you really start to feel it and it really works you. This only takes about 10-12 minutes to complete and you should do it once a week. We usually work the fast twitch muscles but this is a good mix up and works you good.
