Can someone explain what LST is or point me to a thread

[DJ GreenThumb]

I know what FIM, topping, super cropping is but LST is new to me and the search function isn't coming up with anything.

THANKS IN ADVANCE

LST - Acronym for Low-Stress Training, the technique of manipulating the branches in order to reduce plant height, expose certain branches to light, and/or distribute hormones to lower branches of the plant to encourage larger buds.

So if I am getting it, it is basically like supercropping without fracturing the stems? More easing the taller branches over and tieing down to allow undergrowth to flourish?
