ORIGINS OF PROJECT X

136 comments written by Joshua Trentine

These are graphs of data that was collected for the MedX seated dip weight stack system early this year for friction measurement. Both graph the same data. One graph is zoomed in on the data. At the start of ROM the MedX seated dip stack has very low friction. At the end of ROM it peaks at a bit less than 2 percent. This was really the start of Project X. Project X will do this type of measurement while a person is training so we will know if the machine is functioning properly or not at all times. Unlike so many other force graphs out there these are by angle, not by time. The orange is the positive, the grey the negative. The difference between the orange line and grey line is the amount of force difference caused by friction.

Josh perhaps you should get join an association with fewer Pro BBrs and compete in contests with only 3 in your weight/age class. This way you can place in the top 3.

Unsubstantiated claims and quotes from text books doesn’t equate to intelligence.

It is you that needs to provide proof of efficacy. Long on talk and short on proof. I’ve noticed RenEx is great a promising the moon but I haven’t seen anyone, other than Josh, that even looks like they weight train.

Enough talk post your studies and include supporting documents.

avatar Jeffrey Muehl December 4, 2013 at 2:45 am

Joe H,

Are you serious?

What obligation does RenX have to prove their claims to as satisfactory level for you. If they haven’t done that for you then don’t buy RenX products and don’t train using the RenX method.

I almost feel like the issue is people like you worry that it does work, and are desperately trying to disprove it so that they/you can justify there own training methods and sleep sound at night. By disproving RenX for themselves is an attempt to somehow prove that what they are doing is best.

Why is RenX obligated to do that? RenX makes claims. sure. So do a lot of other people. Normally people just move on if they don’t buy in.

Joe H — No worries what ever training method you are using, and what ever equipment you are using it is far better then RenX. Please sleep good tonight. WINK WINK. Don’t forget to take your medications.

Jeff you sound as desperate as the other RenExers who are short on facts. Josh has talked and talked and talked. Talk is cheap, how is that independent study proceeding at the foremost researcher center in the world? Is it finished? Seems RenEx doesn’t talk about this any longer. Why?

Both my training and sleep are fine. As for the meds, it is you and the others that need to drink the Kool-Aid to feel a part of something not I. I’ve heard so much BS here it’s pathetic and your response it typical and empty of substance.

I’m enjoying watching the weight training community laugh at your fitness model leader guided by the original shyster of unsubstantiated claims and BS. Good luck with your training and I hope you’re using the RenEx method because a year from now you’ll understand that words and 12 minute workouts have not and never will maximize muscle.

I must admit that even though I have always considered myself a straight man I find myself strangely attracted to Joshua, of course I still think he is full of shit, but he looks like a real man.

After some initial discussions Joshua and I had a sit down with our lawyers out at Joshua’s estate in Napa Valley. BTW Joshua has a beautiful wine vineyard. Anyways after a lot of negotiations we came to an agreement.

We don’t have a non-discourse so I could tell you what it was….. Let’s put it this way…. I can use the Napa Valley estate and the RenEx jet when I want to. That was part of the deal……

Something you said Joshua, about “submitting” to the exercise. Some of the stuff about bracing. Some of Al’s comments about picking a weight and just getting to it. Gus’ comments about strength training not being about weightlifting.

Do you thank you are the heat? LOL.

I spent the good chunk of my day at a tool and die shop that is prototyping a cool way to retain linear bearings that I came up with. I will be testing them with LabView and Project X soon I hope. When I left the shop I called Joshua to discuss using the idea in different weight stacks. I have been working on various retention methods for at least five years now. I am chasing G.

Yesterday I spent an hour talking to the mechanical engineer working on Project X and sent various emails back and forth. I also discussed various aspects with Joshua, Al and Gus. We are really starting to get more of it pinned down. The current LabView code is much improved vs. the first version. I need to pick up Joshua’s computer that the engineer has and get it ready to send back to Joshua.

The idea of having computer assisted exercise is nothing new, but I think we are making some really decent refinements over what is available.

Joe H, curious when you say there is nothing new with weight training? I am working on all kinds of new stuff. Go to google patent search and look up my name. That is new — or relatively new. Look up Ken Hutchins patents while you are at it.

What training method do you practice? Ken has all kinds of different routines he recommended to people.

What do you think the differences are between RenXe and Nautilus method?

Your a good sport Joe H. I can’t wait for you to join RenXe.

Dusting off a failed protocol, changing verbiage, and dancing around spewing hyperbole as if you found a break through in weight training doesn’t make you anything more than an interesting side show to watch (which is what I’ve done).

You and your monkeys can make sport of those who disagree with you but the fact remains your method doesn’t work. If it worked you’d provide proof but you can’t, because it doesn’t exist. Stick with training old men, women, and the physically disabled where you can make more money in 20 minutes than any other job (remember that phrase?).

Josh why do you ask for pictures when none are posted from any of your success stories? If I post a photo will it prove you’ve failed if I’m in shape or you’re a success if I’m not? This last ditch effort smacks of desperation but I don’t blame you as your RenEx fantasy is already floundering in reality.
It is not me who has supposedly developed the best training method and equipment ever designed, that was you or are you trying to distance yourself from your previous statements?
It is your responsibility to prove efficacy of RenEx but you can’t and haven’t in the last two years. Your repeated average placing in regional (i.e. small) bodybuilding contests highlights the gap between what you say and the results you’ve achieved (be sure to avoid large competitions to avoid embarrassment).
I don’t expect this to ever change but it won’t stop you from babbling on and bullshitting each and every person you meet about the wonders of RenEx.
How does it feel to stand on stage with your superiors and kid yourself you belong there?

Right back at you Josh. Nothing but retread articles and text book passages have shown up on your website. Can’t wait for your clients to realize after a year or more that no gains have been achieved.

Josh I need not write anything. Everybody knows SS failed to build and maintain muscle in any but the untrained and infirm. So when you built your house of cards on SS theory it failed before it began.

Still waiting for any proof you can provide of efficacy. Here we are after 2 years of RenEx nonsense and no case studies or research. Why? Easy answer is because none exists and nothing will ever be available.

Joshua,
Are you going to make any changes in your training such as frequency, # of exercises or any body part specialization?
You may be at the point in time where you have to back off frequency a little. I find that the RenX A & B routine works with Mon.-Fri.-Wed. frequency. At times I do go back to the Big 5 every 4 to 5 days. I’ve been training this way since SS First Edition.
At the time I was about 40 yrs old and everyone, including my friends, thought I was crazy going so slow. They could not criticize too much because I was one of the strongest no drug users in the gym. Now I’m nearing 62 yrs old and in great shape and still going.
I think the RenX problem is it’s too much mental discipline for most and they still want to impress people in the gym by throwing weights up & down.
Is RenX 2nd Edition in the near future?
Brian

Josh, I’m emotional? Were you emotional when you had your hissy fit and threatened people on Dr.D’s forum?
Perhaps you should review Dr.D’s case studies and learn how to do you own or will you continue to hide behind words as you have for 2 years?
The only emotion I’m exhibiting is compassion. Compassion for those you are going to screw over with this failed protocol. Keep entering the Physique shows, that is your bread and butter not bodybuilding but prancing about and spewing empty words. Like your Master before you, your failure will be legendary.

Donnie:
1 or 2 x per week, after a warm up sets:
DL or SLDL (1 set)
Lat PD or Barbell Bent Row (2 sets) followed by Pullover (1 set)
Seated Press or Push Up (2 sets)
Abs (1 set)
I do this routine in addition to other activities.

Reply

avatar Donnie Hunt December 28, 2013 at 7:46 pm

Thanks for taking the time to post your routine Joe. I don’t really have a set routine. In most of my workouts I usually do some sort of chest press, pull down, leg press, and row. Some times I only do these three or four. Sometimes I add in more compound and/or simple movements. As far as exercise performance I try to do each exercise with the muscles doing the work. I have mixed thoughts on what I should be doing during the positive part of reps. The load is largely chosen by feel. I terminate a set largely by feel as well.

Reply

avatar Donnie Hunt December 28, 2013 at 8:26 pm

When I say I have mixed thoughts on what I should be doing during the positive, this is why. Granted I know the equipment I use plays a big part in all this:

I see the argument for moving at a pace that minimizes momentum. Using a load where you have to artificially keep the pace at the start of the set. You keep the muscles under constant tension, and they progressively weaken IF the tension is high enough. The forces coming back on the body are never much more than the load you’re contracting against.

I also see the argument for using a load that somewhat dictates pace or speed from the start of the set. I can also see the greater potential for injury with this.

If your an adult,I dont think anyone would know by the way you act here. Im not here to defend RenEx. Im just saying what im seeing. Looks like you found a way to train that you think works for you.(looking at your routine,looks like something I saw before,do you a trap bar?)Why not start your own blog or facebook if you feel strong about it and want to trash this place and talk about your methods?Its not that hard to do. But dont be surprised if you get about ten people,half who will disagree with you. But look at it as a way to talk about what is important to you. It will make you a better person maybe.

Vanilla? That makes no sense. The problem with you, and trainers in general, is to justify your business you must complicate weight training (the clinical side for Rehab is excluded from this comment). I agree with not using momentum, smooth turn around, etc but my goodness you guys act as if weight training is Neurosurgery and it isn’t.
Hard work on the basics is all that is necessary. It worked decades ago and works now but it requires more than 12 or 15 minutes per session with a paid babysitter standing over one’s shoulder.
As with all commercial based trainers you must move along at a reasonable clip to put butts in the machines to make money and like Nautilus this is the root of the 12-15 minute training session. Seems to me those who are attracted to RenEx are the same people that want to build muscle and be healthy that you seen on the informercials for P90x and such but don’t want to paid the dues required to achieve. RenEx will never maximize muscle development and the videos of your staff training proves this true. They’ve had 2 years of training and I don’t see any difference in the old vs. the new videos of the same trainer.

Round and round it goes.

Yes the weights go up and down. If one makes the weights go up and down they get stronger. So what? Prison weight training programs work great. Joshua never said they don’t.

Joe H are you a trainer or just a subject who applies training only to themselves?

Yea a person can get great result with no trainer, and make the weights go up and down. However, some people like having a trainer.

There are so many different angles/view points/dimensions to training.

You think it is all just a business model with turning appointments over and pushing people through a circuit to generate money. LOL. You must not have experience as a owner of a HIT studio.

What is your point Joe? Joshua and Ken are con men that are stealing money from everyone? Do you propose jailing them? Or just wishing them out of business is good enough? I don’t get it.

I had a real hard for RenEx for a couple of years and I really went after Joshua. Your attacks are funny and feeble minded. Somewhat entertaining to see what you will say next.

Your weight training program looks generic. A RenEx program is fundamentally generic also. The essence of weight training is pretty basic stuff. RenEx

Round and round it goes. Why don’t you find some CrossFit site to attack.. No don’t do that….. Go on the attack here. Let it rip. Give it your best shot. Are all your previous posts as good as you can do? Really? That is it? That is all you got?

A generic routine? and Joshua’s trainers don’t look fit enough to you?

I have witnessed people getting very fit using SS. But the one thing those people all had in common was a good diet. I have also witnessed those people letting it snap with the food, and wind up looking like they never trained in their life. Nutrition and sleep matters a hell of a lot compared to improvement with the stimulus. But if you have your nutrition and rest tweaked the stimulus becomes more significant.

How much do you weigh? How tall are you? What research do you have the proves the RenEx doesn’t work? Where are your studies that and other method is better?

Your kids stuff buddy. Easy pickings to blow out of the water . You really aren’t even worth the time to argue with. Your to stupid and ignorant. There is no point.

Further, as far as damage that you think you can personally do to Joshua or RenEx, don’t fool yourself into thinking that posting some messages on this site will do anything at all other than make a few of us chuckle when we need some entertainment.

You really want to play with the big boys, then post a solid useful argument. Other than Joshua’s trainers are out of shape. Is that the best you have got? I take it you weren’t on the Harvard debate team?

Further really who cares what you need to see or don’t need to see. Joshua is not obligated to prove anything to you. Take or leave it. You think it is shit, so say it is shit and move on. Or start a web site and spend money trying to expose the false hoods of RenEx. Spend your days, and time doing that.

Who cares what you need to see or don’t need to see. If Joshua convinced you RenEx was the best way to train in the world and you totally bought in. So what? Who cares. What is the value of your endorsement or lack of it. Some anonymous fool on the internet. It just doesn’t matter dude.

And either do any of these posts I am making in return to yours. Just liquid poo. No one cares. All of us just wasting life energy with this internet nonsense.

Either way, on Thursday I get back to work on Project X.

Jeffy the problem with you and all RenExers is that you’ll think talking means the task is accomplished. Sadly, this attitude is something you see every where in America currently. Discussing/addressing a problem to this group is fixing the problem. However, DISCUSSING and RESOLVING a problem are different. It is unfortunate that with all the brain power at RenEx nobody understands this fine point.
I give it to RenEx, and it’s founder Hutchins, for blurring the facts and never presenting anything factual concerning the efficacy of their training.

Quote: an experiment in rogue HIT. I am 6 weeks from a professional natural bodybuilding contest.I am under severe calorie restriction.I am not in a position to use this program in it’s entirety, but i did want to start to “feel it out”.
this is my first go at it, I’ve never trained in a style like this before.
i started the workout with one set of compound row then one set of supinated grip front pulldown.then bent- arm DB pullover:
65#x 30
80#x 20
90#x 15
naut super-pullover 110×30 hands only.
what a blast from the past, my only concern is that as i progress up the db will be limiting, clearing my head with bigger weights.
what do you think about switching to a short barbell?
i wouldn’t be surprised if someone fashioned a special apparatus to do these, i never bother with them too much because i have had various pullover machines for many years.
anyway it went well!

You are telling me that I am all talk. Go to google. Search google patent search. Click on google patent search. Search MedX linear bearing weight stack. Check out the alignment system, and adjustability. Do you have any fing idea what is involved in putting something like that together?

Ok, show me your chops. I showed you mine.

I am still doing work on that project. I am also working hard on Project X and getting product produced. It does involve a lot of discussions, takes a lot of time and costs a lot of money. Got some pretty solid builds for the weekend put together. Don’t know how that is all talk. There is a lot to getting a software project put together and pulled off. And there are never any definites that it will be a success or get done

I am pretty excited about Project X, I think it is very promising.

And there a lot of other moving parts going on in my life that produce product. I wish it didn’t take so much discussion, red tape and b.s. to get things done.

But only thing one can do is keep grinding through it.

You are mildly entertaining Joe H. You seem like a nice enough guy. Heck you are interested in RenEx.

Specifically the best weight training method ever devised and the build muscle faster than any other training method available line. Bold talk but still light on the facts. Why is it not possible for Josh to post a few case studies with some of his clients? Two years of training and not a single in house case study?

As I’ve requested time and again, I would like proof not lip service. If one says I have the best method of weight training ever devised I don’t think it is asking too much for proof of such a claim. So far Josh and company has gone out of their way to bash anybody and everybody that asks for proof rather than provide the facts.
