I wasted half my life exercising wrongly until I met this genius. Then my development became rapid and I was surprised by my genes.
Bro we didn’t need the treadmill this whole time, just stop eating sugar for few weeks
Do you increase protocol intensity, or rest longer between sessions?
Even Arnold admitted that mentzer was the smartest
I don’t believe Arnold would ever admit to such a thing, although it is true.
@@HEAVYDUTYCOLLEGETruth, and Arnie don't seem to be synonymous 😂
@@HEAVYDUTYCOLLEGEVery True
Source : trust me bro , Arnold is my training partner
Mike Mentzer was and still is a winner! 💪👍
The legend.
Just in time to start my cut. Lesss GOOOO, I love Mike Mentzer
LoL, I main-gained 33,06 lbs of muscle in 16 weeks, while slowly losing fat in the process. Mike Mentzer change my entire life for the better
@@marsares9733 pounds in 16 weeks that’s even impressive for being on gear. Mind if I ask what you’re current stack is?
@@marsares97which program you used? How much in surplus?
No matter what you think of his methods you cannot deny the development he possessed
I am Always for Mike N His Knowledge...❤❤❤❤.. Wherever you are I love You Mike..!
Thank Mike Mentzer for incredible knowledge.
Thank you John Little
You're very welcome.
Great info as always John best regards
All info on building muscle is the best but i don't think anyone's diet should consist of that much carbs. But he made it work 💪
Hi John, I was wondering if you could give me any tips on how to structure my split or if I could do any improvements.
For refrence, I'm 15 years old, been working out for 3 years on and off and since 1,5 consistently.
At the moment I'm working out on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and do 4 different workouts, meaning I get 9-10 days of rest inbetween each time I repeat a workout.
Day 1 : Chest + Biceps + Forearms
Day 2 : Legs
Day: 3 : Back
Day 4 : Shoulders + Triceps
I do 4 different exercises with one set each, each day.
Thanks in advance!
Wow he knew about level 2 cardio when it wasn’t even a concept back then! He was Way before his time
Of course it was a concept back then. Aerobics took off in the sixties.
hi man i have a question non about this video but about the MOMENTM or TIME UNDER TENSION of every rep. There is a specific video or you can tell me something about, please??
His first HD system book of the 70s included about the three strength levels, intensity and the 4:2:4 reps to alleviate momentum. When you look at the videos, training Boyer Coe for instance, these weren't meticulously employed. In essence, momentum reduces intensity so always move slower rather than faster if in doubt.
The rest pause videos warn of the risks of injury from momentum when using heavy weights.
At 15:00 he mentioned never more than 4-6 sets a body part, I’m just confused what he means, isn’t it just 1 set to failure?
This was recorded in 1980, while Mike was performing 4-6 sets per bodypart while in competition. Mike would later discover that this was too many sets for most trainees and recommend no more than two sets per bodypart but still one set per exercise.
@@HEAVYDUTYCOLLEGE I see, thank you.
Hello fellow Mentzers, I've just started the routine and I am not sure about implementing Cardio on Rest Days, the thing is I tend to do a lot of different activities on rest days, Yoga (Vinyasa), Dancing and Martial Arts. The problem is that, Dancing feels like a light cardio (I am just a beginner in it) but Martial Arts and Yoga suprisingly can get intense, (although Martial Arts are much worse) should I cut back on Cardio completely, or should I just see if I can still recover while doing those activities? What is the thought process here?
Thanks for help in advance :)
Forgot to mention, Martial Arts I practice are BJJ and MMA.
I hope you got on with this okay. What should guide you is your progress.
I do one rep more on each exercise every time following this routine( I do rest 4 days between each), do you think I need even more rest? Is that kind of progress enough, I feel like maybe it's supposed to be bigger
An increase in reps consitutes progressive overload, which is a positive result, so why change anything? If there is a stagnation or decrease in strength and/or reps after 2-3 cycles then include an extra rest day or two and reassess from there. Building mass is a slow arduous process.
No, that's how progress tends to happen for us mere mortals that aren't regaining nor using performance enhancing substances.
What you might consider is training more frequently. Growth can occur in under 25 hours.
His training recommendation around 15:00 is
The only thing you’re missing is the chronology. This was recorded in 1980, while Mike was still competing. During that time he was using 4 to 6 sets per body part. It was only during the 1990s when he began training clients - many of whom did not share his genetic tolerance for exercise - that he discovered that this was too much volume for most. By the end of the 90s, he had trained over 2000 people and found that the vast majority, particularly natural trainees, did not need more than one set per exercise and no more than two sets per body part.
It’s for cutting , fat loss . Building the muscle was different the 3-4 days rest program
Just one question when did Mike train the abs?? I didn't understand this argument. Can someone explain me this
I’m not sure what argument you’re referring to? When Mike was training for competition, he did train his abs. In his later recommendations for natural client seeking to gain muscle, he advised not to train abs directly as they were involved, indirectly in most of the exercises that he indicated and therefore represented activity that only further drained one’s recovery ability.
@@HEAVYDUTYCOLLEGE thx very much, I understood everything.
No worries.
The science of grating ripped. 1g of protein per lb of bw, find your maintenance calories, either increase consistent activity or eat consistently less, light weights. If you start dropping strength too much your deficit is too big. Increase calories or do less activity. Why is this still an issue for people? Losing fat is 100% easier than gaining lean muscle mass.
You forgot about the main thing....carbohydrates. You have to have carbs to lift weights.
