The 6-Week Sprinting Solution
by John Romaniello -

A 6-week program that will get you beach-ready in record time. Oh yeah, it'll also increase your endurance and power and make you fitter than you've ever been, if that matters.

Khaine: (cont) This is just risk:reward to me; if you want to hypertrophy your abs maximally, you need some sort of trunk flexion and extension. Whether that goal is worth the risk of all the hernias and back pain this could lead to is going to be up to the individual. The article should acknowledge this.

Khaine: @Todd: would you agree though, that this kind of training would lead to more hypertrophy than isometric training? As *strong* as heavy deads and squats will make your abdominals, the lack of any change in length in the fibers throughout the movement means that there won't be much *growth* to speak of. (cont)

Paceman: This article is weak. All you have done is extend the range of motion of bad exercises.

Sergio Merino: @MytchBucanan The WTH effect is strong with swings. Swings can have a great influence on the endurance capacity of the lower back but not much in the strength department.

Sergio Merino: @R Fisher - agreed

MytchBucanan: I didn't deadlift for 6 months and after kettlebell swings my deadlift was actually stronger. But, I could tell that it was my glutes and hamstrings that really improved. So even though my deadlift was stronger my lower back was now the weak link.
