Accommodating Resistance Strength Training

"Accommodating resistance and accentuation for increased power" Jason Shea
"The effectiveness of this method of training is clear, but one should maintain great restraint when training in this manner. The demand on the joints and neuromuscular system is very high."

"Accommodating resistance: How to use bands and chains to increase your max lifts" Dave Tate
"The use of chains and bands has been a major breakthrough for many coaches, trainers and strength athletes throughout the world. By implementing these methods into their training programs they've begun to see the average lifter become a great lifter and the great lifter get even better."

"BBC (broad biomechanical correspondence) technology - the effect of varying pin settings on the operation of MyoQuip machines" Bruce Ross
"BBC technology is an easily adjustable form of accommodating resistance. The rate at which the effective resistance changes is varied by selecting different pin positions on the machine's adjustment bar."
The MyoQuip Blog

"Can you build muscle using resistance bands?" Yuri Elkaim
"As the resistance band is stretched it stores a tremendous amount of 'recoil' or kinetic energy, much like a outstretched spring. The natural tendency then would be for the band to 'snap' back to original length, much like a rubber band that has been stretched. This provides an incredible eccentric or 'negative, load on the working muscles that can produce amazing gains in strength."

"More use of band and chain with PTP, kettlebells, and pullups" Craig Culver
"In this article I am going to cover to use band and chain on Power To The People exercises which are deadlift and side press. I will also cover the use of a band for deloading a kettlebell and on pull-ups."

"Rubber vs. iron: band training for accommodating resistance, variable resistance, and max acceleration" Christian Thibaudeau
"Let's take the squat ... You accelerate when you first start to lift the bar, but acceleration quickly diminishes and deceleration starts as you stand above parallel. And the faster you attempt to lift the bar, the shorter the acceleration phase and the longer the deceleration phase. "
T-Nation.com

"Training: bands and chains" Louie Simmons
"There are many keys to success, but two invaluable ones are accelerating strength training and accommodating resistance by adding chains or bands or sometimes both. Chains and bands are used in all of our training, be It the dynamic method for speed strength and acceleration or the maximum effort day to develop absolute strength."
