I never ceased to amazed (or constantly reminded) that a comparitively
P-R-O-L-O-N-G-E-D recovery time is necessary when training w/ the high
intensity level which is possible w/ PFT/SCT w/outs. It is SOOO easy
to overtrain w/ Sisco's methods for me that my overzealousness to get
larger/stronger seems to always end me up in an overtrained condition
(such as today's w/out). I've reached a point in my training that
currently a PFT w/out requires 4-6 weeks before I can lift again and
expect to progress. Does anyone else have this problem?

Hi, I never quite understood the prolonged recovery times of 4 to 6 weeks so many HIT users are claiming or advocate. It makes perfect sense to me to wait...
Alex Thanks for the in-depth response! I do, however, have to politely disagree w/ you totally. In fact, Platz made this "discovery" in 1988 saying it had...
Can you say the same that Tom Platz said about himself? Do you really loose no muscle mass ins 4-6 week period? I agreed with you that the strength increase...
Here's the quote from Tom Platz. ... TP: Not really, no. I don't think there's a tremendous loss of muscle mass. In fact I haven't trained legs for eight...
I don't think comparing recovery abilities of elite professional athletes known to use enhancement drugs with regular people with stressful jobs and training...
As I previously posted - I have gone 18+ weeks w/out touching my weights and yet I lost (0) size or strength, in fact in my first w/out post-layoff I lifted...
Your personal experience with long recovery times is more substantial to me than the study on recovery you added to Files section. May be one day I get to the...
I just watched the video of your last bench press workout - why do you keep on pumping the barbell up and down - aren't you supposed to lift it just a bit and...
Thats Power Factor Training. Its Sisco's forerunner to SCT. I don't think my 7.5 in wrists are ready the weight SCT would require in the floor press,...
I've never had any elbow pain w/ PFT or full range foolishness. If you look close I'm wearing wrist wraps though. Without those I'd most certainly have long...
I started with PFT (Train Smart) years ago, then progressed to purchasing an XF Streamline primarily because I maxed out on the leg exercises and had some...
Thanks for the kind words. My form was pretty good in that video. I'd like to add another 1/2in. to my ROM. I think a relative degree of ROM is necessary for...
Full range "skill" must be learned if someone has exclusively trained PFT or SCT so an immediate transfer of gains (for me personally) is not possible. I'd...
If you do it on a machine, most of the skill is removed. If you do it on an isokinetic machine virtually all of the skill is removed. ... From: sct765...
I forgot to ask - what exercise equipment you use for MIT and how do you measure maximum number - just at one attempt of max out on each exercise or trying a...
