Check out Arnold in his prime below compared to his son Joseph, early 20s, hitting a double biceps pose. The resemblance is uncanny. Are genetics important in bodybuilding? Absolutely, as is the case in most sports.
Could Joseph attain his father’s ultimate bodybuilding prowess? Possibly. Lots of factors would be required, including persistence and drive—not to mention special “supplements,” which Joseph probably isn’t using.
But the potential is there. Look at Joseph’s long lats and arm thickness—and, of course, that jawline.
But even if Arnold isn’t your father (tip: Ancestry.com DNA test), you can still achieve incredible bodybuilding progress. Arnold used multi-angular training and you should too, but in a more efficiency-of-effort capacity for better recovery.
Positions of Flexion is full-range multi-angular training with built-in efficiency. For example, a POF triceps mass programs is:
Midrange: Lying extensions
Stretch: Overhead extensions
Contracted: Pushdowns
Notice how those three exercises each train a different triceps position: over the chest, overhead, and down next to the body. And that program not only trains the target muscle through its full range of motion, it also attacks the 3 key hypertrophy triggers, according to Brad Schoenfeld, Ph.D.:
- Mechanical tension (with heavier training: midrange)
- Muscle damage (via microtears in the fibers: stretch)
- Metabolic stress (by blocking blood flow—during sufficient tension time—for cell swelling: contracted)
That explains why POF is so powerful as the ultimate mass-building protocol, and…
That’s why almost all of our programs at our X-Shop are infused with POF for every muscle—either all positions at one workout or split-positions training.
