Review content:
First a word about "Super Slow" training. I've been doing it for four years now (three in L.A. and one here in Marin at XGym) and it's been kind of a miracle for me. The gains in strength and lean muscle and energy have been tremendous as have the gains in a particular kind of confidence. This is a very challenging workout both physically and mentally and it offers the person training a great opportunity to use/experience mind of over matter. Each rep can be it's own little journey of staying focused and calm (not always easy to do while pushing or pulling with all of your might) and the experience of breaking through a mental block or a moment of fear about finishing a set to suddenly doing another rep (or 3) with a kind of ease that can't really be described (especially on the heels of struggling a split second before) can be a truly empowering experience.
As for doing this training at XGym... it's been tremendous. Each trainer there is very dedicated to their own fitness and besides doing the Super Slow workout themselves they all have martial arts backgrounds which helps with the intensity of focus this workout requires. Also from the owner and most senior trainers to the most junior (in Super Slow) trainer there's an ease and calmness that helps me get into the proper mental space (there's also an understanding of that space) along with the willingness and ability to push me to (and beyond) my limits.
Finally, for anyone thinking that 20 minutes twice a week is too good to be true... it's not (and many reputable studies back this up). That said, you have to put everything into it to get the most out of it and the trainers and ownership at XGym are great allies/support should you choose to go on that journey.
