man, i've been backing off from the multi-day ltmp squatting for a while now, maybe 3 weeks.. i'm jumping pretty good but, i'm not as amp'd as i was when i was doing the 3-4x/day ltmp before.. i lost that "always amp'd up feeling".. every time i go multi-day squatting, heavy, i re-gain that feeling..
anyway, at this point in my performance, i'm not someone who can just lift heavy 2x/week and make gains, it's impossible, i'm already well past my natural limits, and i'm at a point where every inch is just extremely hard to gain.
"Now Cornell University neurobiologists, studying the adrenal glands of rats, have discovered how chronic stress cranks up the intensity of this adrenaline response. The key to this so-called molecular memory resides in a donut-shaped protein on the surface of cells that secrete adrenaline, the hormone also known as epinephrine."
for many people this style of training is not feasible, but for myself, it is, no excuses.. it is damn hard to do though, lifting becomes a job almost, a chore. As long as I stay relaxed on my heavy singles though, no psyching up/amping up, it should only have a positive effect on my cns.
anyway, i guess i can consider the last 3 weeks as a "deload" of sorts, time to get my adrenaline levels back up. I'm going to utilize ltmp-singles mostly, because ltmp-volume under my current diet is just too difficult.
the beauty of this kind of training is that it kicks in immediately..
peace

I read your stuff on ltmps but need to read it with greater detail... interesting stuff.
I think single leg work might be a way to get that high frequency work in as well...
But it seems that (based on your sig about rat adrenals)... that the idea is to get a greater adrenaline response...
Is this the main purpose or is it more to provide low impact muscle stimulation to as many MU as possible and ovoid any OTraining...?
I have the article instapapered to read it more thoroughly ... but you'd still need to initiate that adrenal response before you were able to benefit from it in routine training right?

bump, reminder, answer later..
heh sad i know my bad.
