The reason why your arms grew was most likely due to you inadvertently prioritizing them while cutting the volume for everything else. Increasing volume for your other bodyparts would likely grow them quicker but provide diminishing returns to your arm growth because your body can only recover from so much volume on a daily basis.

Along similar lines, he probably gave alot more intent and enjoyed this training alot more which often happens in the situation you described above. You add on that this constant speed is simply more stimulus as your reaching beyond failure (arms respond especially well to alot of stress) and lastly that most of the excercises on this type of cable allow for a lengthened bias (relative to freeweight movements) - my guess is he hasnt done alot of cable arm work in the past besides pushdowns. Theres multiple competing explanations here and don't think there's much magic going on re effective reps, smoothness of the strength curve, or a lack of an eccentric, but will be interesting to see where any research goes on isokentic training in a more controlled setting.

In time I also learned to use real weights now I can pullup with one arm from biceps (not using the back like most do on youtube) -like Alexey Voevoda did in the documentary Pulling John and biceps curl strict form my bodyweight.

It was from Lifefitness/Bally at the time. Bill Pearl was their spokesperson and came to the club to set my staff up on it. That was in the late 80's early 90's, so the technology was there even way back. Too bad it isn't more commercial in clubs now. Great video too! Thanks for sharing.

This is the best ad for these machines and it's literally just you talking about how hypertrophy guys would be right if this is replicable and if they adjusted their theories.

Always found kettlebell (ya, I know) cleans to be a very good bicep builder. Something about how turning the wrist out outwards while curling the arm in and pinning it, as well as absorbing it on the way down, seems to getting the bicep to work in a funny, holistic way. Probably explains why the kettlebell sport guys have serious arm considering their endurance athletes.

I mean, it's a universal cable machine that can sit in a rack and attach to the bar. I train exclusively at home, so yeah, I use the shit out it. If Dave Tate sold this exact thing and slapped EliteFTS on it, the same people pissed in the comments would be taking out loans to get it. My recommendation isn't "isokinetics are so cool you HAVE to get this!". I recommend if A.) you like spending money on your home gym and want to try this feature (your only options are this or ARX at $40k a pop) or B.) you are already in the market for a universal cable machine and see the value of these features as being worth a small upgrade (good universal machines that just use freeweights aren't cheap regardless).

Lately I've been trying very light preacher curls with an ez bar at the end of a biceps workout, I really sink into position putting most of my weight through my arm pits and fully extending my arms with extremely tight control at the bottom of the movement because the tension is immense and I don't want to rupture my distal biceps tendon. If elbow extension is impaired due to muscle tightness even doing this with the bar is intense and probably a good way to increase mobility provided the elbow joint isn't structurally blocked by bone formation. The elbows should be barely resting on the pad with almost no weight going through them. It's only a partial because as the forearms get close to vertical the tension on the muscle disappears, but its a very effective way of putting high tension under stretch on the biceps in a position where they don't usually get it.

@BBQDad463

I concur in your respect for the distal biceps tendon. I completely ruptured my right DBT during a rafting trip in Montana. It took seven months to rehab after the surgery. Doctor said I was lucky that it ruptured very close to the insertion, did not tear in too frazzled a manner, and the remaining tendon was sufficiently stretchy that he could reattach it at the insertion point without the use of cadaver tendon (!). The rehab was sheer torture. I dedicated myself to it and ultimately recovered 100% range of motion. After eight years of careful work, I have recovered 70% of original strength. Doctor said I should not attempt to exceed 80% of original strength, else another rupture could occur, and would be non-repairable. Be careful. Good luck!

11:47 is a really cool set up using the machine while benching!

A very entertaining comment section to read through lol. I'm definitely interested in hearing your thoughts on this again in a year or so.

That concentric only feature reminds me of the Torque tank sleds in which you push (or pull) but no eccentric component and thus I can recuperate faster using it as an accessory leg movement. Of course the basic model (the M1) is much more affordable at around $600-700. Yeah...really excited about this machine you shared with us.

When I was a kid, my parents had a DP rowing machine that used pneumatic resistance tubes instead of weights. Sounds very similar to what you're describing.

I still use the one that my mom bought back when I was little.

the ONLY TIME i experienced MASSIVE GROWTH of my arms was as an apprentice electrician pulling cable for several minutes at a time , enough to get massive arm /bicep pumps. SO it goes like this, sit down beside cable lean forward pull on cable while leaning back, similar to seated rows. this was a a time i was working out of town hundreds of miles from a gym, so my arms grew despite not working out , maybe 3 workouts a month in addition to pulling cables.

In the mid 90's I went to a gym that had some machines that used air pressure. It was the same as this plus the handles had switches on them to allow you to increase/decrease the air pressure during the reps. I really didn't notice any difference as compared to regular weights. I did however over trained on them a lot faster.

I finally decided to get my ACE certification after all these years. Revisiting the textbook and just read a section where it talks about isokinetics.

Strapping that thing to the barbell for benching, like at 11:30, was a great idea.

I actually noticed I started breaking through plateaus when I went slow through the whole movement as well. Lifting like I’m lifting a car off a baby. Flexing every muscle in my body with proper form of course.

Wait so how do I get same effect with free weights?

Interesting points about the tension variations. At the beach where I live, there's a park that has a fitness area. They have these hydraulic powered pressing and pulling equipment that looks lame, but it gives you the greatest pump ever. As you press (for chest and shoulders) and then pull (for lats), the tension grows and grows until it feels almost impossible to complete the rep. But the great thing about it is you're exerting incredible force without having to worry about failing under a heavy barbell. When I use that thing all summer, my shoulders and chest look amazing. I would guess these hydraulics are not delivering constant speed...or maybe it is, and its the muscle fatiguing which makes it feel more difficult as the rep drags on. But either way its great.

Looks nice on the joints

The "all you bro" setting

I've never loved heavy straight barbell curls, usually end up with some tendonitis if I go too heavy on them. Ez bars have been more tolerable. For heavy curls I resort to DB alternating hammer curls. Hoping to hit some freakish weights at some point (confuse all the other gym bros). I regularly do 5s or triples while warming up for weighted chins. 🙃 Would love to have some of those eccentric overload features become more common. Back in the day we'd have a little 'tug of war' at the machine preacher station... y'know with all the care in the world so we don't rip our arms apart. Good ol' isometric tug of war followed by a forced eccentric. DOMS? Yeah... 💪 Isokinetic is pretty cool because there's probably a number involved and I bet I can figure out a way to get that bigger with more effort. That's like candy for meatheads like me 🤣

Can’t recall if it was mentioned in the video, but going to say this anyhow. The problem with these machines and the constant speed setting is the benefit will only come if the person using it treats every rep as a maximum effort rep. One can lazily do the constant speed rep and have very little resistance. This isn’t to discredit the machines ability to adapt and follow the natural strength curve through the rom, but it would be awesome if you could combine the speed setting with like a minimum effort setting to keep some tension like free weights do.

Godspeed

I used to push a portable stage across carpet in a ballroom. We were supposed to do this with 2-3 guys but for “fun” I would push it alone. With small wheels and thick-ish carpet, you can simply NOT get momentum. I did this for a couple years, 2-10 times a week. Holy SHIT my legs were huge and strong. In fact, since then my legs have always been disproportionately bigger. Seems like a similar stimulus.

So in other words you did drop sets in slow tempo in the concentric motion. I'll try this for 6 weeks. Thanks coach 💪🏿

Machines like this will give us a new generation of data and observations and that is awesome. Really look forward to seeing what we learn from this, what we discover, and what we can do. Unravel the mysteries of physiology.

Check out the Beyond Power Voltra. I'm glad more of these machines are coming out now. Right now they are expensive AF, but the prices will come down as the early adopters buy them.

The number one 1 to improve a body part, is to put it under tension outside of your allotted gym time, and program….unless you’re in the gym 3 hours/day with food.

Many years ago (25ish) I read an article in a magazine about adding an inch to your arms in just 1 workout, but you'd lose it and more if you did it again within 30 days. I tried it a number of years later, and it worked! I doubted the warning and found out that it was true(-1.5" Rt &-1.25Lt). That was just dumbells/barbell for equipment.

Congrats on the arms growth! Were your arms 17&1/4 pumped before, or cold? Just checking because if it was a cold measurement before and pumped after, 1 inch wouldn’t be accurate. I love the concept behind the equipment you’re talking about. I’ll definitely have to listen again to make sure I’m really understanding. This reminds me of the way Jason Gallant trains constant tension, except with new age tech and no need to do partial. Would you gander that the next best thing to recruit (and keep recruited) maximum motor units through a set could be a shortened range of motion where the muscle is under the most tension?

Are you related to Aaron of Gideon's Tactical? You look and sound you could be brothers. Anyway, this is awesome information. I never really follow any regimen at the gym. I just throw weights around and mix it up. I do always concentrate on the slow negative and form, never swinging my torso for heavy curls for instance. Keep a straight posture and feel that burn. Also, I always do drop sets to failure. Seems to work I guess. Trying to get back up to the 400 mark on bench press and I'm always around 212-218 body weight at 5'11".

I guess the cheap way to get close to this type of training on pushing exercises (and deadlift) would be dropsets with accommodating resistance. However, you would still have a lot of eccentric contractions, and so muscle damage. 🤔

From. It working them out to crushing them makes sense on to why they grew. Powerlifting to bodybuilding

Maybe its not the constant rep speeds, maybe its because you have constant tension over the full range of movement from the cable as opposed to free weights. If you are using a barbell for curls, there is little tension at the top and bottom of the movements. But a cable, especially one that is adjusting for rep speed, allows for tension to be maintained over a wider range of motion. I always found that hooking my EZ Curl bar up to a pulley system (by using a D Shackle in the centre of the bar to provide an attachment point for the cable) gave me insane pumps as opposed to using free weights for barbell curls. Far superior in my opinion to a free weight barbell curl
