Tips for Master Amino Acid Pattern (MAP) Users
The Decreasing-Resistance Technique.
This technique can be implemented alone or in combination with the Movement-Segmentation Technique (B). The purpose of this technique is to vary the degree of weight resistance for a specific muscle group, beginning with the Maximum Resistance* and progressively decreasing to the minimum resistance. This technique can be used for any muscle-group exercise. *Maximum Resistance (MR) is the maximum weight that can be actively moved as a result of a muscle contraction (pull) or extension (push). Proceed as follows:
1. Warm up the muscle group you are going to work out for about 15 minutes; use only 25% of that specific muscle group’s Maximum Resistance (e.g. weight).
2. Start working out by using the muscle group’s Maximum Resistance, with a smooth, slow and controlled movement. Then return to the starting position. If you indeed use the Maximum Resistance, you should be able to perform no more than two repetitions.
3. After resting 2 minutes at most, decrease the resistance by 10% and perform as many repetitions as possible.
4. Repeat number 3 for as long as the exercise requires muscle effort.

"Since I have started using MAP I have noticed improved recovery between training sessions. In the last month I have been doing large training loads and the benefits have been noticeable. I look forward to using the (BodyHealth) products through the demanding racing season."
Kevin Moats - Ironman Champion
"With MAP, I find I can train harder and recover better. I have been able to build muscle mass and minimize tendon soreness with MAP."

Through all the training and intense racing, I managed to stay healthy, fit, and strong — all things I can attribute to the BioBuilde (MAP) and BodyHealth Complete."
