Slow motion resistance training has been in use for decades, and its popularity has continued to grow over the years. Television celebrities like Barbara Walters and Lesley Stahl use this type of exercise, as do many doctors, fitness professionals, and athletes. Several books have been written on the slow motion resistance training protocol including “Slow Burn” by Fred Hahn and “Power of 10” by Adam Zickerman. Both of these authors were personally trained by Ken Hutchins, the founder of the slow motion type of training, who also personally trained and certified Jan Champion, one of the owners of Shortcut to Fitness.
