Not to mention that many heart attacks are caused by infection. I don't have Fixx's autopsy report available but I think it is pretty lame to make an assumption over one case-and no referrence at all to what actually caused Fixx to have a heart attack.
Randy,
- Thanks for the info. I have been thinking about doing more negatives and I was curious about your opinion as you are up on the research. I am going to use negatives as a big part of my training over the next 2 or 3 months and see what kind of results I see. Seems like in the past...
Re: Thanks...
DOMS still isn't totally understood. Some say it is damaged nerve endings that cause inflammation and swelling, others say that is unfounded. Here is a website that you can check out -

Acupuncture stimulates the release of endorfins and enkephalins-our natural pain killers. It also influences neurotransmitters and neuromodulators that alter the perception of pain.
many people think acupuncture works on the nervous system...it doesn't. it works on our meridians. The needles...
glad to see you are setting the story straight. We are all familiar with the media and law enforcement going overboard on issues like this. The best of luck to you and your family.
yeah, I have read some literature that indicates negatives stimulate growth better than concentric exercise. What I am very curious about is the ph levels.....as ph levels become more acidic oxygen is less available. I am thinking that the reason eccentric is better than concentric is that with...
After re-reading your post it appears as though you are asking if the muscle itself is actually lengthening.
It is impossible to lengthen our muscles. Muscles are connected to bones by our tendons....the only way one could be lengthened is by surgery, and even then I would think it is...
If you are experiencing the delayed muscle soreness (1-2 days after training) this is exactly where you want to be IMO.
If the resistance (the weight) is greater than the force developed (your muscle strength) this is eccentric (negatives) exercise which supposedly is better at inducing DOMS...
So far my research animal (ardvark...no shit!!) has only done 1.5g with no GH. i am thinking of getting some GH and slin, maybe Igf-1 also with 1.5g as a base.
I have never used GH, slin, or Igf-1, but yeah I think those products can make a significant increase in muscle.
Randy,
I have a question I have wanted to ask you for quite a while regarding resistance training.
I would like yours and others opinions about this. I am specifically asking you because I believe in a somewhat recent post of yours you mentioned something about exercise and muscle ph...
That is Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness-DOMS. it is caused by the microscopic tearing of muscle fibers...the harder you train the more soreness there will be (in most cases).
Soreness used to be attributed to Lactic Acid...but this was disproved several years ago. The lactic acid leaves the...
I get acupunture done about 4 times a year....just for preventative measures and to keep my meridians clear.
Acupuncture is great for pain management in many cases.
--I submitted an article to presser concerning acupuncture for the Ezine...lots of info in it. Maybe he can send it to you if you...
