what the experts are saying
The slow cadence strength training movement began in 1982 after the University of Florida School of Medicine reported that extremely slow weight lifting improves strength, bone density and overall functionality. Since then this program has been endorsed by athletic trainers, fitness experts and doctors such as Fulton C. Komack, M.D., who is on the clinical faculty of orthopedic surgery at the Harvard Medical School. Articles in such well-respected publications as American Journal of Preventative Aging, Newsweek, Business Week and Men's Journal have all reported on the positive and amazing effects of slow cadence strength training.

In addition, a CBS 48-Hours Investigation (July 16, 2004) revealed that Leslie Stahl of CBS News and Barbara Walters of ABC News have "raved about the workout." Stahl, who has been using this workout program for 3 years said, "For me, it's maintaining my weight. I have a good metabolism, but I would gain weight if I wasn't doing something." Later 48 Hours spoke with Barbara Walters who said, "It's 20 minutes more than I usually do and I will stick with it."
