Escalating Density Training by Charles Staley

The basic concept of EDT is a relatively simple one. It's density training, meaning you're attempting (over the course of successive workouts) to do more reps within a set time period, gradually increasing the DENSITY of your workload, i.e. if you do 40 reps in 15 minutes then do 50 reps in 15 minutes the next week with the same weight, you've increased your training density.

So basically how EDT works is that you take a 15 minute block of time and select two exercises. Charles recommends two antagonistic muscle groups like back and chest in a block. This helps prevent fatigue and actually helps activate the nervous system more effectively - working antagonistic muscle like this is a VERY powerful training technique.

In that 15 minute block of time, you attempt to perform as many reps of both of those exercises as possible, going back and forth between sets of each, e.g. 5 reps chest, then 5 reps back, then 5 reps chest, taking as much or as little rest time as you like.

Here's the key...you're NOT training to failure. You're staying AWAY from failure so that you can PERFORM better and get more reps. When you stay short of failure, your body doesn't accumlate metabolic waste products as quickly and you'll be able to perform more reps for a longer period.

You'll accomplish by training volume what other programs attempt to accomplish with training intensity.

The other main benefit is that your muscles will be able to generate more average power of the course of those reps than if you went to failure.

That's the beauty of the EDT system. It can be used by absolutely ANYBODY, from the total beginner to the very advanced athlete, the EDT system adapts to whatever workload you're capable of.

Bottom line, your muscles not only get trained with a good amount of volume, they also get trained for more power, which makes you STRONGER much faster than with conventional training. It's a potent combination, which I can tell you from experience is VERY effective.

I have been using the EDT for quite some time and find it to be the most practical, time efficient and effective program there is. When you look at some of the other muscle building programs online today they are (with the exception of a couple of tweaks here and there EDT in disguise). As I mentioned before Anyone can use EDT. A beginner one PR zone set it for 15-20 minutes, pick 2 exercises, go for it your done. Stay on this for a few weeks move on to 2 PR zones.

15 minutes 3 times a week AND get results.

The price for the full EDT video training guide is $77 and you get an 8 week guarantee try it if you dont think it will work for you get your money back.
