Is this true?

4 sek for a more productive workout by Ian King and TC ( from T-nation)

If it is true shouldn `t we all change to a cadence like 5 sec neg. and 1 pos. or something like that. (the 5010 is from DC training)

I'm not sure if it really answers your question, but I think it is interesting.

A recent article by Johnston is available at JEP, this article looks at different speeds of contraction and the force output.

Pretty much it coincides with what has been seen in crossbridge kinetics, but if anyone wants to read it here is the link.
