Don't Waste Another Ounce of Effort in the Gym With "Standard" Exercise Technique!

Learn How to Get Twice the Results From the Effort You're ALREADY Putting In!

Have you ever wondered how to REALLY maximize every single moment of every single rep of every single set to build muscle and strength FASTER? Standard exercise technique is NOT the answer!

Wouldn't you rather do ONE exercise and get the muscle-building benefits of MULTIPLE exercises with the same amount of effort?

It's a fact. Every single time you do a "standard form" rep, you're short-changing yourself on the results you're going to get! "Typical" form is simply NOT the most efficient way to work the muscles for maximum strength and muscle-building results. It's not because the exercises are wrong or bad for you... it's just that they don't fully optimize muscle tension from start to finish!

If you're a serious trainer, you NEED the information I'm about to share with you - it's going to save you days, months and even YEARS of wasted time and effort.

Because, as a serious trainer, I KNOW you will relate to the problems with these standard exercises:

• the Barbell Bench Press only allows maximum tension at the BOTTOM of the exercise (where you can lift the LEAST amount of weight) If you could lift 200 lbs at the bottom, you could probably lift 400 lbs or more at the top! Through much of the exercise, you're using a lot less weight than your muscles are actually capable of.
  
  
• when you're doing a Squat, you get practically NO tension at all on the quadriceps when you come to the top 1/4 of the exercise - this missing tension costs you leg development, no matter how hard you squat.
  
  
• on a Preacher Curl, when you get to the top of the movement, unless you really make an effort to squeeze your biceps hard, the weight is almost completely supported by your BONES, not your muscles
  
  
• when you do dumbell flyes, if you bring the dumbells together at the top for a full range of motion, you lose tension in the pecs - it all goes onto the shoulder joints
  
  
• the list goes on!

I'm sure you could think of any number of exercises where the limits of the type of resistance you're using (be it free weights, cables or bands) negatively affect how well the exercise works for you. Honestly, it means you will have to do MORE exercises to fully work your muscles for complete development and muscle gain!

If you're a fan of efficient training (I know I am!) and getting the most out of every single rep you do, you're going to LOVE the concept behind my new book "Hybrid Training"... using multiple types of resistance AT THE SAME TIME to more fully work the target muscle with NO ADDITIONAL EFFORT.

And just to be clear, when I say "no additional effort," I'm not saying for a second that these techniques are going to be easy...in fact, they're going to be MUCH harder than regular exercises simply because your muscles are going to get NO break as they do in regular exercises. The extreme muscle-building tension you get from this type of training is absolutely PHENOMENAL, and has to be experienced to be believed.

When I say "no additional effort" I mean that you're already training hard - you need something that will give you better results for the effort you're ALREADY putting in.

THAT is "Hybrid Training"

From: Nick Nilsson
Tuesday, 9:18 a.m.

Dear Friend,

I want to teach you one of THE single most powerful and "outside the box" secrets that I've discovered in my 18 years of training. It's not something I learned when I was studying for my degree in Physical Education (though the advanced biomechanics, kinesiology, physiology and anatomy courses did help!). And it's not something I learned in my 10 years of personal training either...

But it IS something I learned when I really started thinking outside the box and looking for ways to overcome the limitations of specific exercises, like those I mentioned above (bench press, squats, dumbell flyes, etc.). After all, they're great exercises...but why not make them better!

The secret I'm talking about is this: you DON'T have to limit yourself to using only one form of resistance at a time! Once you know how it's done, you can easily utilize TWO forms of resistance at the very same time, hitting your muscles nearly twice as hard with the same amount of time and effort.

This extraordinary concept is the foundation of "Hybrid Training."

So why is "Hybrid Training" so much more efficient and so much more powerful than regular training? How is it going to build more muscle?

First, "Hybrid Training" allows you to keep continuous tension on the muscles through their full range of motion. Continuous tension is one of the most powerful muscle building techniques in existence... your muscles THRIVE on tension and when they get no break, you get more muscle mass. It's that simple. Now, when I say continuous tension, with a "normal" exercise this means no lockout and no full stretch on the exercise, i.e. no break. For example, if you're doing a barbell curl, you would do only the middle 3/4 of the movement, never letting your arms straighten out and never coming all the way up to the top - just curling in the middle. By the end of the set, your biceps will be absolutely SCREAMING from the tension. But the downside is, to get this powerful continuous tension in a regular exercise, you can only use a limited range of motion and a reduced amount of weight. You have to stop short of the top and stop short of the bottom AND you have to use lighter weight to even be able to keep the tension on the muscles long enough to be effective. Not with "Hybrid Training"

When you put "Hybrid Training" into effect, you combine TWO forms of resistance that cancel out each other's weak points and allow you to apply continuous tension to the muscles through their ENTIRE range of motion. This also allows you to use more total weight than you'd be able to use with a pure continuous tension style of rep.

Want an example? Think of a dumbell press for your chest...the most powerful part of this exercise is near the bottom where your pecs are getting the most stretch and the most tension. But what happens as you come to the top of the press? When you bring the dumbells close together, you start to lose tension in the pecs and the stress goes onto your joints and bones. The weak point of this exercise is near the top.

In the graph below, you'll see as you move from left to right, you get high tension at the bottom of the movement (the bottom of the Dumbell Bench Press) and it tapers down to low tension as you get to the top.

Now think of the cable flye (lying on a bench between two pulley machines, using the two single handles to perform a flye movement). Because of the pull of the cables, you get very little tension on the pecs at the bottom of the movement. But as you bring the handles together over your body, the tension increases until it maxes out when you bring your hands together at the top. The most powerful part of this exercise is right at the top and the weak point is at the bottom.

In the graph below, you'll see as you move left to right, you start with very little tension, gradually building up to maximum tension at the top.

Now, using the techniques I'll show you in "Hybrid Training," you're going to COMBINE BOTH EXERCISES into one single movement (and this NOT a superset but you'll be actually performing BOTH exercises at the same time!). You will get maximum tension on the pecs at the bottom, stretched position (from the dumbell press) AND maximum tension on the pecs at the top, fully-contracted position (from the cable flye).

Note in the graph below, as you move from left to right, you start with high tension (from the dumbell press) then as that gradually decreases, the tension from the cable flye (that you are doing at the same time) gradually INCREASES until you get to the top.

So rather than completely losing tension at any point at all in the exercise, you keep tension on through the ENTIRE exercise and maximize it at the two most powerful points in the movement...full stretch and full contraction.

Just imagine how trashed your pecs are going to be at the end of THAT set! And just imagine the results you're going to get from that trashing!

Now imagine taking this exercise-combination technique and applying it to every other part of your body! You're going to learn...

• how to modify the barbell bent-over row to not only get vertical resistance (from the barbell) but horizontal resistance (from a cable). When you do a regular bent-over row, you only get tension as you're pulling the barbell up. But with "Hybrid Training," you can combine this with a cable row to get forward-pulling tension on the exercise as well. You'll get continuous tension that follows the exact optimum path of the bar in the exercise. Bottom line: HUGE pump in your back muscles! Even if you've never been able to feel your back working well before...your muscles simply won't have a choice with this!
  
  
• how to combine barbell lying triceps extensions with cable lying tricep extensions to maximize both the stretched AND contracted positions of the movement. With a regular barbell extension, you get full tension in the stretched position but almost noting at the top. When you add in the cable extension, you get full tension at the top as well! I can promise your triceps will be ON FIRE by the end of the set - it's one of the fastest ways to bigger arms you'll ever find.
  
  
• how to use the cable cross-over machine to attack the shoulders from an angle they've never been hit from before...at the same time as you're performing dumbell presses for the shoulders! You see, in a typical dumbell shoulder press, you lose tension at the top - the resistance is just being applied straight up and down. Add in sideways-pulling resistance while you're pressing (from the cables), and the shoulders are forced not only to support the weight of the dumbells but actively pull the cables together overhead. This exercise combination is the CURE for stubborn shoulders. Even the bottom of the exercise gives you no rest because the cables are STILL pulling the dumbells out to the sides. It's a killer cure!
  
  
• one of the most powerful lower-back building exercises you will EVER use. This combines a regular barbell deadlift with a cable deadlift so not only are you using heavy weights on the barbell, your lower back is forced to actively pull up and back against the cable resistance. Let me tell you, this exercise makes the regular deadlift feel like a walk in the park. And if you've never felt a pump in your lower back, you're going to be in for a surprise! At the end of the first set, your lower back is going to feel like it's made of spring steel.
  
  
• how to combine barbell Preacher Curls with cable Preacher Curls to effectively ELIMINATE the loss of tension at the top of the barbell version. Imagine doing a Preacher Curl that doesn't allow you a single second to rest your biceps. You get a great stretch at the bottom and a HUGE contraction at the top with FULL muscle-building tension from start to finish. You'll hardly be able to lift your arm to scratch your nose by the time you're done with this one.
  
  
• how to mash-up dumbell leg curls with machine leg curls to not only maximize the stretched and contracted positions of the movement but how to add an INCREDIBLE amount of tension to the adductors. This will hit your hamstrings extremely hard. And strong adductors? Critical for a bigger squat.

I could go on like this with multiple exercises for your ENTIRE BODY. The concepts of "Hybrid Training" can be applied WITHOUT MERCY to every single major muscle group in your body.

The bottom line: these "continuous tension" exercises will help you gain muscle and help you build strength at a DRAMATICALLY ACCELERATED RATE.

And the great thing is, "Hybrid Training" uses equipment you ALREADY have access to at any gym - cables, barbells and dumbells. If you don't have access to a cable machine, I'll show you exactly how to get around that as well, using other training tools such as training bands!

** Definitely keep in mind, because Hybrid Training utilizes multiple forms of resistance, to get the full effect of this training concept you WILL need to have access to not only free weights but another form of resistance as well (such as cables or bands) to add into the mix. **

And I can promise you, once you learn the secrets of "Hybrid Training," you'll be hooked!

Now "Hybrid Training" doesn't stop with the extraordinary results of continuous tension...it also demolishes another MAJOR limitation of standard exercise technique: changes in the strength curve.

A strength curve is something you're already familiar with if you've done any lifting at all. Even if you've never heard the name before, you know its effects - it's the change in leverage of your body and limbs as you move through an exercise. It's the reason you can use more weight at the very top of the bench press than you can at the bottom... you have better leverage at the top!

Because if you think about it, you can only use as much weight as your muscles can handle at their WEAKEST point! It's like the analogy of a chain being only as strong as it's weakest link.

Thank about it...when you're doing standard full-range reps of the bench press, YOU ARE LIMITING YOURSELF TO THE WEAKEST LINK and it's the single greatest limitation holding back your strength and muscle gains in that exercise!

In the graph below, you'll see the thick bar across the bottom. This is the actual weight you have on the bar. The Sticking Point is that point about 1/4 of the way up where your leverage is at it's worst. It's exact spot varies from person to person but when you fail, THIS is where you fail.

This means you can ONLY do full range reps with as much weight as you can handle at exactly that point.

But if you keep moving to the right on the graph, you'll see that the actual leverage and therefore strength capabilities of your muscles keep on going up! The problem you see here is that the resistance DOES NOT. You are still STUCK using only the same, minimal amount of resistance that you were able to push past the very weakest point of the exercise.

So how do we fix that?

That's where "Hybrid Training" comes in...it not only takes the specific strength curves of exercises into account, it also uses additional targeted resistance to more closely match the specific strength curve of an exercise. In plain English, it means you get ALL the resistance you can handle at the bottom of the bench press (through the weakest point) and ALL the resistance you can handle all the way to the top! This is something that is typically only possible with machines built with resistance-altering cams. But you're going to discover that it's also possible (and WAY more effective!) with free weights! So instead of wasting the majority of a bench press rep by using only as much weight as your muscles can handle in their weakest ranges, you're going to take FULL advantage of the ENTIRE RANGE OF MOTION from top to bottom.

This is achieved not only with combinations of different resistances (like I gave examples of above) but through the use of one of the best training tools I've ever come across...heavy duty elastic training bands.

If you've ever heard of Louie Simmons and the Westside Barbell Club, you know that they know SERIOUS STRENGTH. Their membership is like a roll-call of champion lifters. As part of his strength training protocols, Louie has also pioneered the use of bands (and chains) for changing the resistances of exercises to better match the actual strength curves of exercises.

So when we add training bands to the Barbell Bench Press, check out how the resistance changes...you use just enough resistance to get past the sticking point, then as you press up, the bands start adding additional resistance, challenging your muscles more and more as their leverage gets better and better!

Bands are among THE most effective training tools you can use...and bands are what I'm going to teach you how to use to get absolutely ASTONISHING results.

I'm not only going to show you EXACTLY how to train with bands but I'm going to give you all the tips that I've come up with for making these techniques better. I'll even show you how to adapt the band training to your own available equipment! This is a detailed "how-to" guide to help you get the most out of training with bands, not only as great direct resistance but also as assistance and even by ALTERING THE ACTUAL DIRECTION of resistance!

You'll learn...

• how to use bands to lift more than ONE HUNDRED POUNDS above your current one rep max bench press in a FULL RANGE OF MOTION. This technique seriously overloads not only the muscles but the connective tissue as well, which is one of the keys to building REAL BRUTE STRENGTH.
  
  I'll even show you the exercise variation (using the bands) that allowed me, at a bodyweight of 195 lbs, to bench press 455 lbs! And here's the best part...I have pretty much no biomechanical talent for bench press at all! It's one of my worst lifts. This stuff is absolutely GOLD if you're desperate to get a big bench!
  
  
• different methods for anchoring bands on bench press, squats and deadlifts to build extraordinary explosive power out of the bottom of the lifts. The bottom is generally the hardest part of each of those lifts - these band techniques will develop mindblowing strength to help you literally BLAST your way out of the bottom of each of those lifts. If you've ever found yourself stuck at the bottom of a big lift, you NEED this information.
  
  
• how to use bands to alter the direction the resistance is coming from. Imagine doing a normal standing calf raise...picture how, as you come up on your toes, your heels come up and forward. Now imagine using bands to add resistance to that small forward movement! You not only get the direct downward resistance of the weight on the calf machine, you get direct backwards-pulling resistance against calves as they also try to push the body forward. The effect on the calves is HUGE - it's a synergistic application of force that your calves will have NEVER experienced before!
  
  And this trick can also be applied to the flat bench press to throw WAY more tension on the upper pecs! Because when you anchor the bands in a specific way, the upper chest is forced do MUCH more of the work. It hits the upper pec fibers like you wouldn't believe!
  
  
• where you can get heavy-duty training bands at excellent prices. Forget those skinny latex aerobics elastics - these bands are designed for serious punishment. I constantly beat the tar out of my set of bands with tremendously heavy weights and they take everything I dish out.
  

But it's not just all about weights and massive strength..."Hybrid Training" can even be applied to bodyweight training!

With the right techniques, you can use bands, cables and free weight to add resistance to almost ANY bodyweight exercise. Because bodyweight exercises are, quite simply, some of the very best exercises for maximizing muscle fiber recruitment. For example, a chin-up will ALWAYS build a better back than a pulldown. It's just a fact. But what if you can't do a full chin-up on your own? You can use OTHER training tools (like bands) to help take up some of the resistance of your body, following the exact strength curve of the exercise - with proper use, you can get more help at the bottom (where you need it) and less help at the top (where you're stronger). It'll allow you to build up the strength to do full reps of the exercise completely on your own!

And if you can do plenty of reps on your own and need MORE resistance? You can not only use bands for extra resistance (in a way that matches the strength curve of the exercise - less resistance at the bottom, more at the top) but also use a cable machine to change the direction that the extra resistance pulls on you (to better match the optimal path of resistance of the exercise!).

"Hybrid Training" takes bodyweight training to a whole new level! It can be used with push-ups, crunches, lunges, chin-ups, and many more!

But don't just take my word for it...check out what these top professional trainers have to say about "Hybrid Training"...

So how do you learn how to do "Hybrid Training?" Is it hard to incorporate into your current workouts?

Learning "Hybrid Training" is extremely easy! When I teach you how to do "Hybrid Training," I'll not only give you extremely detailed descriptions of set-ups, exercise performance, why the exercises are so effective, as well as tips and tricks for making the exercises even MORE effective, but...

I'll give you "how to" pictures for EVERY exercise and TONS of videos (88 videos to be exact!) demonstrating proper exercise performance!

I leave NOTHING to chance. You'll know EXACTLY what you're doing every step of the way.

And it's extremely easy to incorporate "Hybrid Training" into your current training. You don't need to change a thing except the exercise you're doing! You can do a straight-across substitution of "Hybrid Training" exercises for regular exercises. If your program calls for 3 sets of bench press, you can directly substitute 3 sets of "Hybrid" bench press!

The transition is completely painless and the results you'll get just from these simple changes will truly blow your mind! Once you start using these techniques, it'll feel VERY strange when you go back to regular exercise technique. You'll wish you had learned these techniques YEARS ago!
