VRT: Bi-directional or One Direction only?

Much controversy has come up with students of the VRT system doing the imaginary weight training in one direction, or in both directions...i.e., tension at the outset, and tension in coming back to the start of the movement.

In my original development of this course, I recommended that the movement most clearly be a facsimile of reality; in other words, the movement imitate a real lift, both in the vision, sound, touch, even smell (if that's possible). And that is tension in one direction. But John McSweeney's version, which John Peterson called the Miracle 7, recommended tension in both directions.

I leave this to the individual practicioner. I have done both. I think one direction is the most "megapumping", but one may find more comfort, vigor, and energy in practicing tension in both directions.
