Description: Deepen your knowledge of the historical and current distinctions you can use for exercise and equipment analysis. Enhance your skill understanding of how these relate to effective muscular loading and efficient inroading. Throughout the class discussion, we will consistently link what you have learned, and/or deepened what you already know, to relevant discussions in your work with clients about this topic.
Purpose: From SuperSlow Master, Dan Carter: on the value knowing of the ten requirements of full-range exercise:
In my opinion the 10 requirements of full-range exercise are about exercise equipment contribution to the efficiency of muscular loading and thorough inroad.

Thorough inroad is achieved by fatiguing the muscle as deeply and quickly as possible. How can this be achieved most efficiently?

1. The subject’s (client’s) responsibility to thorough inroad efficiency is minimizing discrepancies therefore minimizing rest in order to maximize muscular loading during exercise.

2. Understanding the remaining requirements of full-range exercise, helps in designing, choosing, and using exercise equipment that is also most efficient at maximizing muscular loading.

3. When subject and equipment are operating most efficiently, muscular loading and thorough inroad can be optimal.
Objectives: To review and deepen these key concepts, distinctions and principles:
1. Rotary Resistance
2. Direct Resistance
3. Variable Resistance
4. Balanced Resistance
5. Positive Work
6. Negative Work
7. Stretching
8. Pre-Stretching
9. Resistance in the Position of Full Muscular
Contraction
10. Unrestricted Speed of Motion
Outcomes: Learning Outcomes – at course completion, the student will:

1. Increase your skill to speak effectively about
analyzing all types of exercise and exercise
equipment to clients to ensure you can have them
better understand the value of their SuperSlow work
out.

2. Increase your skill to speak effectively to
clients, and others, about the impact of ‘no
negative work potential’.

3. Increase your skill to speak effectively to
clients, and others, about the value of ‘full-range
exercise’ principles.

4. Increase your skill to speak effective examples to
your clients about what SuperSlow Master Dan Carter
has to say about this topic, stated above in
the ‘Course Purpose.
Topics: The teacher will use a variety of teaching options to guide the students through the following topics focusing on 1) accurate and thorough understanding of the topic 2) advancing the students knowledge by having the student relate the topic to their real world of SuperSlow strength training and business.
To review and deepen your understanding of, and communicating about, the following distinctions and principles:

1. Why did Arthur Jones invent the distinctions that
comprise his ‘ten requirements of full-range
exercise’?

2. Why did Ken Hutchins list them as he did?

3. What does each of these mean according to the Tech
Manual [i.e. not in your words, rather as stated in
the Technical Manual] and are they, or are they
not, valid today?
a. Rotary Resistance
b. Direct Resistance
c. Variable Resistance
d. Balanced Resistance
e. Positive Work
f. Negative Work
g. Stretching
h. Pre-Stretching
i. Resistance in the Position of Full Muscular
Contraction

4. Rotary Resistance:
a. ____________ joints enable us __ ______ ___
___ ____ and what is their function?
b. Many conventional exercise tools operate how and
why is this a problem for efficient inroading?
c. When you view a joint and limb in their plane of
rotation, the rotation proscribes what and how
does this mislead your perception?
d. According to Ken Hutchins, is there such a thing
as ‘rotary resistance’: why or why not?
e. What are we really talking about that rotary
resistance was trying to get at and what does it
mean according to the Tech Manual?
f. It is proper to say an exercise such as a
pullover provides ____-_____ ________.

5. Direct Resistance:
a. In many conventional exercises, the targeted
musculature is what and why?
b. With a ‘chin-up,’ what muscles are you trying
to target, what muscles do you actually
target, and why, and what is this called?
c. How do you solve the problem of indirect
resistance?

6. Variable Resistance:
a. Why must a proper exercise machine vary the
resistance?
b. What is the real problem that almost all
exercise equipment has regarding variable
resistance?

7. Balanced Resistance:
a. Why is not enough to say that variable
resistance is required in an exercise?
b. Most, if not all exercises do vary the
resistance but inappropriately to the needs of
what [two things]?
c. Properly balanced resistance can only occur
with what?

8. Positive Work
a. This is also known as what and means what
according to the Tech Manual?
b. What is the muscle doing in this work?
c. Do most exercises have this?

9. Negative Work
a. What is the result of exercise equipment
devoid of negative work potential [two things]?
b. This is also known as what and means what
according to the Technical Manual?
c. When doing this work, a muscle is said to what?
d. Why is negative work included in SuperSlow
important?
e. To what type of client/patient is negative
work especially important?
f. Without the potential for negative work in an
exercise, which of the ten requirements would
be obviated?

10. Stretching
a. Under what conditions does true muscular
stretching as a result of exercise occur?
b. What does not occur if negative work is
missing in an exercise machine?

11. Pre-Stretching
a. What does this ‘brief twitch’ evoke in the
body and then activates what?

b. Why is negative work in an exercise machine
important to pre-stretching?

12. Resistance in the Position of Full Muscular
Contraction:
a. What level of resistance does the targeted
musculature have when in a fully-contracted
position?
b. Does the potential for meaningful resistance
occur for the targeted musculature when fully-
contracted with rotary-form exercises and, if
so, why?
c. What happens in a rotary-form exercise about
this if there is no presence of negative work
potential?

13. Unrestricted Speed of Movement:
a. Why is the requirement ‘not so secure’ and open
to debate?
b. From your experience of working with clients,
what do you think about this requirement
remaining or not remaining and why?
c. What is the philosophy of isokinetic and why
are we opposed to it?

14. Connections To Note:
a. Simple Movements = Single-Joint Movements =
Rotational Movements = Possibility To Satisfy
Full-Range Requirements: what does this mean
and why does the possibility for full-range
exercise exist?
b. Compound Movements = Multiple-Joint Movements
= Linear Movements = no Possibility for Full-
Range Requirements: what does this mean and
why doesn’t the possibility for full-range
exercise exist?
