Super Slow Training For Growth
The theory is to hit slow twitch muscle to enhance functionality in us. The other idea is that this style of training will be safest in avoiding injury because there is no locking of joints, no jerking on joints ensuring proper form and full range of motion. Super Slow can be done several ways. Because of the slow motion your form has to be strict and being so slow you really have no choice in order to keep attention to your training. Here is a weekly workout routine for super slow training.

Workout of the Week - Get Massive Calves
There are two primary muscle groups on the back of the lower legs - the gastrocnemius and the soleus muscles. The soleus is a wide, flat muscle that lies beneath the heart shaped gastrocnemius. Both muscles contract to extend the feet and toes, but the soleus can only fully contract when your leg is bent to at least a 30-degree angle. Give this routine a try and you can always add extra sets and reps if you need a more intense workout.

Which Fat Burner Should I Use?
Q. I have been considering taking a fat burner to assist me with my diet. What type would you advise?

A. My honest opinion with the majority of the fat burners out on the market is that they are about 99% marketing and 1% effective. If you look at the ingredients, they mainly contain the same item active ingredient, which is caffeine. Caffeine is a drug and has ergogenic properties, which makes a very popular ingredient to add to any "fat burner". However, by adding other so-called "fat burning" ingredients, supplement companies can wrap a flashy marketing wrapper onto a bottle and make outrageous claims. There are much easier and cheaper ways to get caffeine.
