Keith Im in total agreement with what you wrote. I used the cue "drop" into the catch and some colleagues got on me for it. I know that dropping under the bar may not be the best cue but I think it helps some athletes. I use multiple cues drop/pull/drive under, whatever gets the athlete to get under the bar efficiently.

My caution would be - one cue doesn't fit all. Make the cue work for the current technique and where you want the athlete to go.

Dynamic Variable Neuromuscular Stimulation Systems

I met with a company called, "The Facility" It is a gym only for trainers to train there clients in, if the trainer does not have his or her own studio......While there. I was advised that if I wanted to train some of The Facility's members or clients, I would have to take their course in DVNS System.
I was also given a very small demo. This was done doing the bench press, the first thing that I noticed was that the trainer was sort of in my face, standing very close, making personal contact almost from the begining. He adivsed that I should do three sets of 10 reps, and when that was done, we did half rep, one arm reps, other motion reps, the idea was to lift the bar to his hands, so the trainer was in constend fontal contact with you. When it was done I noticed a pretty good burn in my chest. Oh one other thing....when you pressed on this chest press machine your whole body moved srt of up and fowards, very strange movement, but smoother than any other machine I have ever been on
Here is the question.....Since I am 71 years old, and specialize in 50 year old clients and above...I have what they need. I was promised that they would be able to supple me with all the clients I wanted, but I had to take there 16 hour course first for a fee of 500.00
Has anyone heard of this system? Does anyone have any clinical studies, or even other not so clinical studies on this system. Before I pay to do something I may totally opposed to I would love to get some information from any who may have it. From my short time with this, my feeling was that the trainer was very, very, very, good at what he did. He made contact, and pushed...very close to me at all times, almost as a training partner would be, and that made me work harder. It is mostly muscles under tension.. is there any science that shows that the long the muscle is under tension the more hyperthrophy happens. Anyone have any knowledge about this.
I am from the old school. So many reps and a % of a one rep max, depends on whether you want to build endurance, muscle, power and strength
Any insight, help would help a great deal.
