Micro Weight System

Grayslake, IL

 

THEORY

The most important point of the Micro Weight System is to control the weight increases, so that the body is able to grow in size and strength without failure or injury. This system is only effective if the weight training exercise is being performed with proper form and with controlled movement. This system will not apply to any weight training exercises being done with improper form. With this system, as the weight you are using gets heavier (even if the weight increases remain the same), the percentage that you are increasing drops slightly every workout. For example, if I am working out on the bench press with 350# and taking 5 oz. increases, I am increasing .09% for the first workout only. This percentage decreases slightly, with each workout, as the weight gets heavier. 

Using this system allows us to find the weight increases that the muscle will be able to handle consistently without failure or injury. When you increase your workout weight the percentage of weight used is decreased.

When muscle gets to its maximum size for the amount of blood that it gets, your body will actually produce more blood vessels in that muscle. This is called Angiogenesis. This takes place when the body feels that the muscle is to the point where it needs more blood flow to feed and rebuild the muscle that has grown in size.

Through years of research this system was designed to work with the body to accomplish maximum performance from a muscle group without failure or injury. In our research we have discovered that the large muscle groups, such as the legs and back etc., are able to handle between 3 oz. and 5 oz. gains consistently without failure or injury. The smaller muscle groups, such as the forearm, hand, and triceps etc. are only able to handle small gains of between 1/2 oz. to 1 oz. per workout. In summary, we learned that by using this weight system along with having proper form and movement in the weight training exercises, the muscles could grow in strength and size consistently without failure or injury. This makes this system unique for the body and the mind. To date, we have been unable to find a point at which there is muscle failure using the Micro Weight System.

KEY

Failure - unable to complete full range of motion
Injury - damage to soft tissue ligaments, tendons, or muscles
