Cybergenics was before my time basically but Someone once posted a scan of the original Cybergenics workout plan.   I remember looking at it and realizing it was nothing but a complete CNS burnout method.  It was wild.  I remember the quad workout being something like :

Start off with drop set squats and each set with your heaviest weight you can do for 10 reps, 5 assisted reps, 5 negatives.   Immediately reduce the weight by 50% and with no rest immediately do another 10 reps, 5 assisted reps, 5 negatives.  This drop set counted as 1 set.

You had multiple sets like the above to complete.
What I remember thinking is you could squat a decent weight how the hell you going to find someone to spot you when they got to haul you up when you are doing negatives.  I bet everyone in the gym would avoid you after you roped in some unsuspecting person the very first time.
