_SCT_'s been out for 11yrs, yet there's NO great bodybuilder, strongman, or athlete who claims to owe his success to it. (Including the late great, Paul Demayo, featured in many of the book's photos, who was as muscular as he ever was -before- trying statics.) Do you really think you'll be the first great success story? ...Statics are good for solving specific issues with sticking points & holding strength. They are NOT a substitute for movement training, and SURELY not an improvement over it!
