Power Factor Training : A Scientific Approach to Building Lean Muscle Mass

Narrowly-focused weight-training book. Recommends partial reps while disregarding every other weight-training technique. Mathematical formula used to measure workload requires a lot more record-keeping than most lifters care for. Narrow, not revolutionary and certainly, not scientific.

There are several reviews that sum up the quality of this book, so I will not add to that discussion. I just wanted to encourage people not to waste their money here. Part of becoming well-read in this area is sifting through all of the !@#$ and wasting money here and there. I truely believe you can get something out of any book you read; but this book place a stretch on that one. The only excellent to come from reading this book is the opportunity to have a positive effect on the effort of others to learn a bit more about strength training. Time is a valuable commodity that you should not have to waste on material like this in your pursuit of information. There are lots of other excellent books (about strength training) on Amazon like stuff by Siff, Komi, Poliquin, Tsatsouline and others.

The authors’ concept that partial reps using heavy weights provide maximal stimulation to muscle growth is groundless as is their arbitrary training measures ie power factor. A misguided and potentially perilous work. They also take the words of other authors eg Fred Hatfield out of context in attempts to support their program. Despite their claims to developing a quantitative and scientific method of bodybuilding, their program provides neither. Read with caution.

Okay, this system worked for me. Before I had knee surgery, I had a personal trainer help me with making a program based on their methods. I then got the surgery and it helped with my recovery. This is a excellent thing. . . . So, what does this mean? It means it can work for some people, but not ALL people. The reviewers who place this book down are the same type of people who reckon they have the answer for all of the worlds problems!!! That is YOUR opinion. Just like the Atkins diet works for some people and the Zone works for others. No one system can address all factors contributing to weight loss or gain for that matter. Most of it is genetic anyway! Okay, so to my point, CHILL OUT! You don’t have to buy the book or follow its principles. Some of them are probably incorrect, but so are a lot of mathematical calculations. Question John Nash. . . I reckon in trying something new, that person opens themselves up to a lot of criticism, most of which is what the GenX generation would call HATING!! I reckon most of the reviewers here are just squawking hens that don’t have a excellent thing to say about ANYTHING! Hell most of the people here would question Einstein’s theories. WHAT MORONS! In closing, this is my advice. Try it out. If it doesn’t work, you can always e-mails the gods that have reviewed this book to find the TRUTH! Peace out. . .
