Neil struck up a friendship with Dr. Schwartz many years ago after reading how the doctor used Heavy Hands to decrease his pulse rate from 60 to 38 and his body fat from 14% to 4%.
Neil had only heard of elite athletes with numbers like that (not some guy in his 50s), so he contacted the doctor to find out more. That was the beginning of a lifelong friendship that would change the way Neil viewed aging.
Dr. Schwartz didn’t believe that the musculoskeletal system needed to decline as we age. He believed that working all four limbs at the same time, instead of just two, would allow feedback loops from the heart to the muscles to form and strengthen, preventing sudden overloads on the heart while also preventing muscular declines in strength and movement.
And in this audio, you’ll get an inside look at the inventor of the Heavy Hands® workout, Dr. Schwartz, from one of his friends, along with tips on the best exercises to do with the weights and how Dr. Schwartz intended they be used to improve life, throughout your life.
