What is Slow Movement, High Efficiency?
As we age, it is the loss of muscle that leads to our chronic pain and deteriorating health. That is why STRONG Studio focuses on building and maintaining muscle. Strong muscle supercharges your metabolism, increases cardiovascular endurance, makes you leaner and stronger and reduces the risk of obesity, diabetes, and osteoporosis.
So, what can you expect from a STRONG Studio workout?
MUSCLE GAINS
To start, this method maximizes muscle stimulation and growth through its emphasis on intensity and controlled movements. By pushing muscles to near failure in a shorter duration at a slow pace, high-efficiency training triggers greater muscle fiber recruitment and adaptation, leading to accelerated strength gains and hypertrophy.
TIME SAVING
Secondly, time efficiency is a significant advantage. Unlike traditional workouts that may span hours, slow movement, high-efficiency training condenses effective muscle stimulation into shorter sessions, typically ranging from 20 to 30 minutes. This is ideal for individuals with busy schedules, enabling them to maintain consistent training without sacrificing other commitments.
JUST THE RIGHT DOSE
In addition, the reduced time commitment minimizes the risk of overtraining and burnout. By focusing on fewer sets performed with slow movement and high-intensity, the body is allowed ample time for recovery and adaptation between sessions. This approach not only prevents excessive strain on muscles and joints but also supports long-term sustainability in fitness routines.
What Else?
HEALTH BENEFITS
Slow movement, high-efficiency training promotes a multitude of health benefits such as reduced body fat, lower heart rate and blood pressure, improved blood sugar levels and insulin sensitivity, immune system boost, stronger bones and muscles, improved cognitive and mental health, reduced stress, metabolic benefits and more.
FORM FIRST
This method emphasizes proper form and technique using MedX machines, reducing the likelihood of injuries compared to workouts that prioritize volume over quality. The controlled and precise movements and focus on muscle engagement enhance neuromuscular coordination and stability, improving overall functional fitness and reducing the risk of imbalances or muscular weaknesses.
GET STRONG
Slow movement, high-efficiency weight training stands as a scientifically grounded approach that optimizes workout effectiveness, time management, metabolic benefits, injury prevention, and overall fitness outcomes. This method offers a balanced and sustainable path to achieving fitness goals efficiently and effectively.
There is no way around this simple fact:
You cannot build muscle unless the workout is sufficiently intense.
Why MedX Machines are THE Best
STRONG Studio is designed not just for optimal exercise, but for health transformation, where every piece of equipment is curated to help you achieve more than you thought possible.
MedX has more scientific and evidence-based research than all other exercise equipment manufacturers combined for increasing human strength, endurance, and range of motion.
WHAT SETS MEDX APART
Arthur Jones is the legendary founder of Nautilus. In 1986, he founded MedX to perfect the testing of human strength, endurance and range of motion. After years of development and testing, MedX applied the knowledge gained from its medical machines to the design of a full line of exercise-only machines in 2002. These machines incorporate MedX's patented compound weight stack which produces less friction and enables several hundred levels of available resistance in increments of 2-pound increments. This reduces user strain and, for the first time, made it possible for individuals to select the exact level of resistance required regardless of their strength.
FEATURING THE CAM
MedX machines and their decades of experience and millions of dollars of independent, university-based research also feature one of a kind cams that achieve training efficiency through resistance curves matched to tested and proven strength profiles which alleviates strain on the joints.
The resistance is easier at the beginning and end of the exercise, and harder in the middle, but the resistance feels consistent on the muscles being taxed throughout the entire movement since it follows the body’s natural strength curve.
The result of this meticulous attention to the body’s movement is that the point of failure occurs when the body it truly fatigued instead of being dictated by the machine’s mechanics.
