I have no studies for you guys however I try many types and styles of training over many years of experience.... I often rotate training styles, and practice my own or a version of “fascia stretching” now for several years and suffice to say it has worked very well for me. Now days I train to maintain my current health, size and strength but I can testify to “fascia training” aiding in increased muscle size, adding a more dense mature look to muscle and overall it’s a great way to train. Be prepared to be SORE.
btw, I’m currently incorporating Yoga into my training and mixing up weight lifting with 10minute, 4 mile spin bike bursts... I love it... Im staying leaner with no changes to my food and I’m way more flexible than Ive ever been in my adult life. Currently, I’m on a huge push for increased mobility. YOGA is not for the faint hearted man, that stuff is brutal. The increased ability of breathing alone is worth the cost of admission, the benefits I am seeing training this way are nothing short of fantastic. If you’re looking for a new style or just want a fun way to train, I recommend stepping outside the box... the ol brainwashed methods are effective but there’s more than one way to skin a cat
