Omni Contraction Training Program `I know what you’re thinking; What is Omni Contraction Training?? No worries, I thought the exact same thing when I was first introduced to this type of training. Omni Contraction Training is an advanced, performance-based training methodology that strategically targets the three primary forms of muscle contractions – eccentric, isometric, and concentric – across a training week. Instead of relying solely on traditional dynamic & concentric-focused lifting, this method deliberately manipulates tempo, position, and intent to create more efficient, well-rounded, and joint-friendly gains in strength, explosiveness, movement quality and durability. By isolating and emphasizing each contraction type, Omni Contraction Training challenges the nervous and muscular systems in unique ways:

By strategically cycling through each of these days, in a structured 10-week plan, the result will be a stronger, more durable, and higher-performing YOU! Whether you’re preparing for an upcoming season or just looking to train smarter but in an advanced way, this plan was built to challenge you without breaking you!
