>I saw you lifting at the gym 6 days a week, multiple sets and not going to failure. You need to take a week of buddy. I'm worried about you son.
How do you react?

>I saw you lifting at the gym 6 days a week, multiple sets and not going to failure.
But Mike bro, I do a body parts split with a weekly frequency of one day per muscle and always go to failure
Stop taking drugs or you'll die when you're 50.
I take my meds because dead people are talking to me, again.
>again
every time I kill mentzer he comes back
Take it easy with those roids Mike, I barely go twice a week if that, though sometimes I complement it by home exercises. Would be pretty embarrassing to have a long-lost twin who went to the gym 6 times a week.
Mike???? I thought you were dead
What's HIT in a nutshell? Just pick one exercise per muscle group and do one set of each to failure until you cry tears of blood and you do that twice per week?
Am I missing something (other than the roids and meth)?
I read his book and don't buy it. No way you can do in 2 hours, once a week, what everyone else is doing with 8-10 hours over a week.
I think he was lying to sell books, he doesn't even seem to mention warmup sets. just lifts a huge amount 6 times, over a few compound lifts, and goes home...?
>No way you can do in 2 hours, once a week, what everyone else is doing with 8-10 hours over a week.
There are a million ways to build muscle and most of them are suboptimal especially if you're roiding the like 2 hours a day 6 day a week roidmonkeys.
Hypertrophy training is literally idiot proof, of course you can yield results with HIT. I have no issue with the debate of "what is optimal" but anyone saying "it doesn't work" is a legit moron.
>No way you can do in 2 hours, once a week, what everyone else is doing with 8-10 hours over a week.
you cant. But the difference is minimal enough that its not worth the 4× time investment. Granted Mentzer takes it one step further and says all that extra time and volume actually reduces your gains which is not scientifcally backed at a but it remains true that unless you are competing you shouldnt really be spending all those hours in the gym.
Post body
lol that pic. Being American truly is easy mode unless you get a hospital bill.
Nah based Biden signed a law where not paying hospital bills doesn't affect your credit score. Frick 'em lol
Muscle isn't built while you're lifting. It's built while you're resting. What would lead you to think that taking less rest would build more muscle?
post your body to show us then
Train hard to absolute failure (concentric failure followed by assisted reps if you have a partner, concentric, isometric and eccentric failure if you don't)
Rest until you reach full systemic recovery (usually 4-8 days for a natty, could take longer depending on lifestyle and genetics)
Get a hobby outside of the gym to fill the other 6 days a week. Based Mike literally recommends touching grass and having sex.
Repeat.
Enjoy life and the optimal gains that follow.

Literally impossible for the average ISTizen to do that who is a lonely incel. Even lowering his gym days is risky enough since they have nothing else going on
This is the absolute dumbest shit I've ever read. Unless you're doing 12 second eccentrics for 3 reps you're achieving no where near the proper amount of tension in your muscle to grow.
>not pictured is the 5 ~~*warmup sets*~~
And this is why this dumb manlet Black person got mogged by arnie and died a nobody
Read his book homosexual he literally said that reps don’t count
your homosexual methed out manlet got mogged into obscurity
>better arms
>better legs
>better moustache
bad picture for proving your point
>Mentzer retired from competitive bodybuilding after the 1980 Mr. Olympia at the age of 29. He maintained that the contest results were predetermined in favor of Schwarzenegger, and held this opinion throughout his life. While Mentzer never claimed he should have won, he maintained that Schwarzenegger should not have. Nevertheless, the two eventually had an amicable relationship
cope and seethe manlet kek
I don't know if you know this but OP is not actually Mike Mentzer.
Who is it then?
This amount of cope is just sad. It's objectively true that height is a key part of aesthetics. No amount of manlet 3-icnh ROM reps will change that, stumpy.
History will always associate Mentzer as the little ball of rage who lost and took his ball home while crying. Hilarious he died seething about something that happened 30 years ago.
You are the most angry person ITT by far. Post body with timestamp and put us all out of our misery, otherwise keep seething at a dead guy because he told you to have sex.
Height makes no aesthetical difference unless you have stunningly longer legs in proportion to the manlet
Are you israeli?
Reminder that they wouldn't even air this Olympia because it was so controversial. I love old school Arnold, but regardless of Mentzer's placing the judging was beyond nerfed. One of the more obvious cases of politics in a sport.
It's the idea that less exercises/reps at a higher load yield better results
There is a video were he talks about meeting Dorian Yates and he says that while he preached it he did more exercises but he could go back in time he would do less lol
I mean it was the 80's. No competitive sport still follow training regimen built 40 years ago. IMO, he was right on track but knowledge evolved a lot and you'll get better results following guys like John Meadows, Scott Stevenson, Dante Trude and Jordan Peters
I'm gonna be honest, I started his program 2 weeks ago and have gained muscle mass and have a 6 pack for the first time in my life.
I think he was right.
Didn't you go insane in the last decade of your life and die of a drug overdose? Mind your fricking business, ghost.
Mike... I have to be stronger. You don't understand! I need to do this now or I fear I'll never be able to make it...
honestly boring meme OP, you keep spamming but the butthurt potential of it is too low
You can't tell me what to do, you're not my real dad, daddy!
metzner gay are all dyel and resort to posting picture of a gay dead dude because they themselves are dyel i know thats a little redundant cause when you say metzner gay you automatically think dyel anyway
cope and seethe more gymcel
HA, roidtroony!
