Please Note: This is a required technical manual for understanding the principles of SuperSlow® Exercise Protocol. It provides the necessary information to apply to all reasonable exercise tools. Except for leg press, it does not detail how to perform each exercise. These particulars are explained in the SubProtocols and in the Video Series. Eventually the videos will replace the SubProtocols. The general program is outlined in the Supplement to the 2nd Edition, available elsewhere on the website. The most complete rendering of SuperSlow® is best obtained by acquiring the Technical Manual and the videos.SuperSlow®: The Ultimate Exercise Protocol is much like a dictionary. You may not have read or remember everything in your dictionary, but you continually refer to it over many years. The Technical Manual contains a table of contents that highlights the less technical chapters for those readers who need a gradual progression into the more technical. Please purchase the book and take its study seriously. No refunds.

Supplemental Super Slow Articles
Articles are $1.50 each, or $14.00 for the complete set of 11.
1. Intensity vs. Work in Exercise
Presents a mathematical model demonstrating that although less altogether weight and work is performed when rest is denied between sets, deeper inroad and more-certain growth stimulation occurs. This article is now presented as a chapter in Super Slow® The ULTIMATE Exercise Protocol.
2. Maximizing Skill for Musicians and Athletes
A complete discussion of motor learning, a discipline often misunderstood by coaches, athletes, musicians and teachers. Motor learning is the discipline of how to practice to most efficiently enhance motor skills. Most of what laymen and researchers conclude as improvements in physical conditioning are actually unidentified improvements in motor skill. This article is now presented as a chapter in Super Slow® The ULTIMATE Exercise Protocol.
3. Requirements for Functional Ability in Athletes and Musicians
This logically concludes that muscular address in the key to all aspects and benefits of exercise. This is the most important biological concept ever applied to exercise. Its original deduction is the work of Arthur Jones. This article is now presented as a chapter in Super Slow® The ULTIMATE Exercise Protocol.
4. Hyperextension of the Back - A Vague Concept
Explains that "hyperextension" is often ill-defined and misapplied by everyone who uses it, including most physicians and therapists. This is the treatise that was the acid test in deciding several exercise-related, malpractice court decisions.
5. Proper Exercise and its Role in Reducing Fat
The most important concept fat-loss concepts for exercise subjects and instructors alike. Thoroughly explains that exercise is essential for a true fat-loss program, but for several major reasons often overlooked.
6. Feeling, Fat, and 40
This article, by Brenda Hutchins, is not about "Feeling Fat" - note the placement of the commas. It explains why women seem to have a sudden increase in clothing size after years of maintaining their weight and clothing size. An important article for any woman trying to control her figure.
7. The History of the Nautilus® Lower Back Machine
Is a technical narrative about the pedestal that was prototyped for the original Lower Back machine and then abandoned just before production to save time and retain customers' deposits. See why this miracle tool fell short of its expectations only because its production commenced in haste.
8. The History, Design and Function of the Nautilus Biceps Curl Machine
A long (16 pages, 10 pictures) technical article detailing the design arguments for the Nautilus Biceps Curl Machine. Included are the ideal approaches toward the Compound Position Biceps as well as the extensions of the arguments to the Omni, Duo-Poly, Multi and Plate-loader designs. these arguments are now proved to be incorrect except for some bizarre medical applications.
9. The First Definition of Exercise
Goes into greater detail on the years of work and thought that arrived at The Definition.
10. Exercise vs. Recreation
These two articles are stand-alone reprints of chapters by the same title in Super Slow: The ULTIMATE Exercise Protocol. They are available in bulk quantities upon special request and pricing.
Condensed Sub-Protocols for Selected Exercises
Sold only as complete sets for $21. No additional shipping charges when ordered with SuperSlow®: The Ultimate Exercise Protocol.
Each of these one page sub-protocol articles includes a 1,000 to 4,000 word technical explanation of a particular exercise. Previously, Nautilus and other equipment companies merely posted a sketchy outline of how to use each piece of their equipment. Nautilus withheld detailed technical information because it was believed to be too arcane for exercise buffs and instructors. Also, most of this information was never available to the very persons who designed, produced, delivered or sold the equipment.
These articles are, by far, the most detailed explanations ever written regarding the proper techniques for the various exercises. However, we refer to these articles as "condensed" because they are brief versions of the comparable material including the design theory and arguments as witnessed in the Supplementary Article entitled, "The History, Design and Function of the Nautilus Bicep Curl Machine". Eventually, SuperSlow® Systems will also supply such unabridged versions for every exercise.
There are 21 sub-protocols now available. They include the following exercises: Calf Raise, Hip & Back, Lower Back, ABduction, ADduction, Leg Extension, Leg Curl (prone), Pullover, Behind-Neck Pulldown, Front-Grip Pulldown, Chin-up, Double Chest (Chest Fly/Chest Press: two separate sub-protocols), Rowing Torso, Compound Row, Deltoid Lateral Raise, Barbell/Dumbbell Biceps Curl, Multi-Triceps, Neck & Shoulder, Cervical Machine, and MedX Leg Press. These Sub-Protocols serve as study materials for the Super Slow Certification Practicals Level I and Level II.
