19 Year Old Athlete Test Subject #3


This one is a college athlete. Training has to be adapted to the sport and the demands for time. Ht: 5'4" Wt: 189 5/15 initial Streamline tests: Close Grip 263 Bench..........211 leg press.... 641 toe press... 520


The subject was rehabilitating a broken leg. Her static leg strength was very impressive after a short amount of training. Her bench and close grip demonstrated powerful arms like one might expect from a division one athlete. Additional data to follow.


11-12-09: The subject responded well to isometric training. Static leg press went from 641 up to 1411 bs. Static bench went from 213 lbs to 256 lbs. The subject's weight fell from 189 to 184 although she looked even smaller. She also had a successful fall college season in softball. Photo did not change much.

First Test: Explosive Fitness Streamline Exercise Machine 7-19-10 Update

From the days of seeing Charles Atlas comics of bullies kicking sand in the face of skinny boys to the present, fitness has been a lofty goal that for many appears out of reach. Our first test review will be of Explosive Training Streamline Machine . This is an isometric exercise machine consists of a bench and bar which provides a digital readout of the maximum amount of force exerted on the bar. Pete Sisco , an accomplished author in the field of exercising with heavy weights in a limited range of motion, apparently helped originally develop the machine. While Sisco is no longer affiliated with the product, his theories provide the basis for the muscle building goals of this exercise equipment.

I Grip Isometric Fitness Product ~by Fitness Tester

The fitness market was surprised by the revival of isometrics a few years ago. The protocol we tested called for preexhausting of the muscles by isometrics followed by slow body weight movements. The results were favorable.  In a relatively short amount of time, once a week workouts produced gains.  (See previous articles and data.)
