why it works
3 key reasons
Short rest + compound lifts = EPOC effect. You keep burning calories hours after the workout.
The offset center of gravity fires more stabilizers each rep than an equivalent dumbbell.
4 days doubles frequency per muscle group: more weekly stimulus without compromising rest.
