Arms looking great there mate
Thanks bro
And good news about the diagnosis
I wish to fuck I could do Omni reps they are intense as fuck but you need a training partner to do them
In Omni-Contraction training Mike would make each a maximum effort. He would do his one all out maximum positive rep, followed by a maximum negative, but during the negative he would stop the weight and actually try to raise the weight again (which was impossible). He would do these static holds at three different points during the negative rep, the first was at the top, close to the fully contracted position, the second was halfway down and the third was close to the bottom position. Each position was held for a count of 3.
When performing omni-contraction training, did Mike perform just one rep per exercise? Maybe he did a few rest-pause reps using omni-contraction?
Similarly, any reason for not performing just one rep with a maximum contraction and maximum negative?
Really hope to hear from you,
Peter

Hello Peter,
With rest pause Mike did about 4 reps with 10 to 15 seconds in between.
So I am sure since Omni-Contraction training was even more intense he would have done less, maybe 2 reps or 3 at the very most.
Of course it is possible he just did one rep and then moved on to another exercise.
