RESISTANCE EXERCISE METHOD AND SYSTEM
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for exercising comprising:
- an exercise bench to provide exercise resistance for an exerciser to perform one or more sets of exercise movements; and
a means for coaching or monitoring the exerciser'"'"'s use of the inclined exercise bench in a regimen of single exercise sets in a sequence progressing substantially from exertion of larger to smaller muscles;
wherein the exercise movements are performed substantially using slow movements.

Abstract
Methods and systems for exercise by performing exercise sets in a sequence progressing from exertion of larger to smaller muscles; with the exercise movement performed using slow movements. Each exercise set is performed to a point of momentary failure. The slow movement is at a rate of less than about thirty degrees per second. The exercise sets are performed with as little rest between each exercise set as global or central fatigue will allow. Resistance is applied during each exercise set to produce muscle failure within a predefined time under tension parameter.

3. A system for exercising, comprising:
-
an inclined bench to provide an exercise resistance for an exerciser using the bench; and a set of instructions for communication to the exerciser prior to and/or during use of the inclined bench, wherein the set of instructions comprises instructions to implement the method of exercising comprising; performing a regimen of sets of exercise movements to exercise one or more muscles on an exercise bench in a sequence progressing substantially from exertion of larger to smaller muscles; wherein the set of exercise movements are performed on the one or more muscles using movements that are slower than 30 degrees per second to maintain a sustained demand on the one or more exercising muscles in each set of exercise movements to minimize kinetic forces and wherein each of the exercise movements is performed for only one set of repetitions prior to progressing to the next exercise movement in the sequence; performing the exercise movements are performed substantially to a point of momentary failure; and performing each of the exercise movements with resistance applied that produces failure within a given time under tension parameter of 40 to 120 seconds. - View Dependent Claims (4, 5)
