Decrease oxidative stress and increase anti-oxidant production

When Dr. Philip Alexander over exercised before he found SuperSlow™ he created high levels of oxidants, free radicals, that damaged his body. That’s why he felt like he had been run over by a truck after those over training exercises.

But happily he found SuperSlow™ and now when he exercises wisely he no longer creates that oxidative stress on his body. In fact weight training can increase antioxidant production in the body that helps nullify free radicals that we daily encounter in our environment.

The next study was done with a slightly different type of high intensity training regimen, known as high-intensity interval training (HIIT). Eight fellows who were very active entered into a cycling training program. They peddled as hard as they could for 30 seconds then rested for four minutes. They repeated this cycle of 30 second high intensity peddling followed by 4 minutes of slower peddling 4 to 6 times during each HIIT session. After only three weeks of training their blood levels of antioxidants increased significantly and their blood markers of oxidative stress decreased significantly. Amazingly enough this all occurred after only nine training sessions and only 22 minutes of high-intensity exercise. The authors of this study concluded that short term HIIT has a positive “effect not only on physical conditioning but also on health promotion”.25
