Next time leave out the stupid animations; everyone hates them. See below.

Arnold also has had 4 heart operations, Dorian has had non

@@fishmud3264 that’s a stupid useless comparison...

@@darthsebio1726 Lol How so ? Arnold pushed himself beyond the limits and now is fkd, then you have Dorian Yates who trained smart and is living life to the full, healthy, no quadruple bypasses etc, it is the perfect comparison!

@@fishmud3264 not that I don’t like HIT ,I do..Dorian is my favorite bodybuilder ever..& btw he looked in person even more impressive than on video or photos..but look Dorian had his fair share of injuries..and the same argument can be made the other way..Mike & Ray Mentzer are unfortunately both dead..I just doubt this are direct results from the way everybody mentioned trained..maybe there will be some studies on the subject...

@@fishmud3264Arnolds heart complications has nothing to do with training too much Lmao. Mike mentzer did HIT and he died at 49 so what does that tell you😂

Same with me., but machines will work just fine

Get a friend its a game changer

@@principal4854 no one likes me

The only exercise that I can't safely go to failure on is the leg press. I get close but don't risk that last, most important rep. With every other exercise I don't have a problem.

@@T3merity then use a flat leg press machine., not a lay down one, or upside down one

Thx for the effort in the comment dude, I appreciate it

Appreciate the long in depth routine

The A B routine is great!

Are these done 3 times a week? Mon wed Friday?

Yeah are these done 3x a week?

@NattyLifeYT is a great channel that covers that extensively

Leon Edwards has the most aesthetic physique in the entire universe though.

They didn’t have a profound knowledge of training and nutrition at all😂 they had a very rudimentary understanding - Arnold used to carb backload ffs😂

Lmaooo Dorian Yates was one of if not the first mass monster☠️

Yates was the first mass monster...

They are actually 100% right

@@courtesywater6hi992 Nope.

more like 10-20% not 50% lmao

working out more does not mean better lol. You definitely shouldnt workout for 2 hours

@@dog-ye1st what is better? At my job in construction, it is quite benefitial that my body is used to large volume. So if you want your body to be able to handle 8 hours of hard af work, then you won't get that from high intensity low volume. 🤷‍♂️

@@juliehansen1716 who says u cant fit 2 hours of working out in 1 hour and its better that way. Imagine u did lets say 1000 pushups in 2 hours vs in 1 hour, which one is more beneficial?

@@dog-ye1stI get your point but thats not how it works

@@juliehansen1716working out more than necessary in the gym is only gonna give recovery issues and make you even more fatigued at work

Focus 😂

Lmao 🤣🤣 didn't even notice lol

Didn't even notice them

Yates basic program is 3 exercises per bodypart Ex 1 - 2 warm up sets , 1 failure set Ex2- 1 warnup set ,1 failure set Ex 3 0 warm up sets , 1 failure set

@@iang8169 thanks!

2 warm up sets. First one at 50% intensity, 2nd at 75%, then your working set to failure.

Or you simply don't train very intense once you start and increase the intensity as you adapt and get stronger

I still am. 64. Love the work. natural as well

"tearing down muscle" is bioscience. That's not how it works

@@leepooley3985 “When you exert stress on your muscles, it damages the muscle fibers, causing micro-tears”

You’re just being pedantic _at best_

You need to do all body parts ( Biceps, Triceps, Forearms, Back, chest, Shoulders, Quads, Hams and Calves ). For exercises, you can pick 1-2 or sometimes 3 variations of any old school lifting exercise. So for bench press variations would be Cable Press, Incline Press and flat Press ( I mean you get the idea by now ). That's basically it. I hope it helps!

For chest he did one superset (after a warmup, no hard sets before), this superset consisted of pec dec to failure followed immediately by incline machine press to failure. On the same workout he would do back, 1 superset with lat pullovers into close grip palms up pulldowns (pullovers preexhaust lats so biceps work less in the second part of the superset). And ending back with 1 set of shrugs or one sets of a row variation. Just one set or one superset per exercise and never more than 2 exercises per muscle. For arms NEVER 2 sets, but on triceps at most a superset. EVERY SET NEEDS TO BE UNTIL COMPLETE FAILURE, preferably eccentric failure as well if you have a spotter, but not neccesary

2 exercises for each body part, a compound movement where you can generate the lost amount of force and use progressive overload principles and a isolation set where you can get a great stretch and contraction of the muscle For chest you could do a warm up and a working set of flys and incline press, 4 total sets 2x10 and that’s your whole chest day, i do some push-ups and dips before hand to get a baby pump and give me the peace of mind to jump straight into heavy sets Shoulders would be overhead press, lateral raises, and rear delts (either laying chest for. On a incline or reverse pec Back here many more parts to it, but a seated cable row and lay pull downs are really all you need to develop thick lats, add a shrug variation for traps(i even like hang cleans to move a lot of weight explosively) and lower back/spinal erectors are best with rdls or deadlifts Legs would be squats leg extensions and lunges or leg curls for the hammies, the rdls and deadlifts hit your whole posterior chain Triceps i love French presses for the long head/juiciness, and cable tricep extensions for that horseshoe to pop, arms i love standing cable curls and been doing hammer curls but in a spider curl set up Add some calf raises, some functional movements and some calisthenics and that’s all you need

@@Rileyed there is super setting., I have Mentzers books., your wrong.!!

@@captainbc52 yeah well Mike said you don’t need to do Cardio., Soooo you don’t listen no to good now huh.,??

Yeah, I understand that it take time to grow. Cool now?

@@itzakehrenberg3449 YEAAAH BUDDY!

1 low weight warm up, 1 heavier rep pre exhausting, then the real heavy duty rep

warmup is not necessary when performing superslow dynamic exercises

@@declan5184yea I noticed that when I began implementing Mike mentzer’s plan today.

@@declan5184 I'm pretty sure he said in the past that he actually did some warm up sets, you can't simply go from 0 to high weight set to failure.. c'mon

@@declan5184 NOT true. Warming up is essential. I can tell you that from decades of training experience. I'm now 65.

Isn't classed as a "working set" tho

They’re not… at high intensity. The main focus is a set with the utmost weight you can move under full contraction, for the most amount of reps. Pumping up the muscle with blood via warmups to gage current max and stabilize for the main set…..

Warm up sets are for warming up with very less weights, low reps and short resting time like 45 secs-1 min

You could do three sets of 15 push-ups and make your last set your working set. Rest pause, going slowly. Making more difficult

Depends man. If you’ve been training high volume. Switch over to high intensity, like what you said. 2 “moderate” sets, then last to TRUE failure. The body only understands “oh hey this is hard I need to adapt”. I did this and saw great progress. But after about 6 months I hit another plateau as my body had adapted to the high intensity training. I switched back to volume training to provide a new stimulus. I flip flop back and forth like this every so often and it works really well for me.

Why?

Yep, he should have slowed down his cadence & not stayed with free weights the whole time.

Mike shouldve Won the year he retired tho, bit i get your point

He is wrong. Machines are safer and therefore because they are less likely to cause injury they are better. You can also push more weight because of the controlled path than free weights

@@CollaredConsulting He won 8 Olympias.

@@CollaredConsulting kzfaq.infopx1HD-RJvRQ

Spider man drwng

It depend on intensity of sets. If you warmup on 50% of intensity you can't count that as a set

Exactly

​@@filipnajev8449 Also, There's no warm ups on every exercises. Mike recommends doing warm ups on compound lifts and then perform an exercise that requires only that specific muscle and then superset it with the exercise you just did warm up. And that too is on very few muscle groups, only Chest, Leg & Back... And in Shoulders, only on Lateral Raises. He never recommended to do warm up sets on Bicep curls, Leg Extensions, Rear Delt flies, Chest Flies, Pullover, Tricep Cable Extensions and Shrugs. And these are literally half or more than half of the training exercises out of all what Mike recommended to do. So saying that "they do not count their warm up sets" is so hilarious... I mean, Even Arnold said that him and other golden era BBs used to do warm up sets before starting their workouts... So this way, if Arnold was doing 30 sets for Chest, and he already did like 2 warm up sets on each major exercises that he did - Dumbbell flies, Incline Bench Press, Flat Bench Press, Decline Bench... And all the other back exercises that were actually for back but he used to call them that they were for Chest 😂 like Dumbbell pullovers, Wide Grip Pull Ups... He was already doing like 10-15 sets of warm up lol. Then why didn't he count them. Also, nowadays you can find every influencer saying that they do Warm Up sets... While they are a Volume trainers and they too say that warm up sets are not counted.

You literally should be having some logical & factual explanation to what you just wrote... If you ever tried HIT, you know it literally finishes in 40-45 minutes... If you actually perform multiple sets on various exercises, you would, in no case, be able to finish your workout within an hour. Even adding a single more exercise than what Mike recommended would easily take your 5-10 minutes more in a workout.

@@visheshdeepgautam relax man, I am doing heavy duty program and I know what I am talking about. I only do warm up sets on first 2 excercizes after wich my body is ready for all other excercizes

@morgan14366 actually, yes. Tendons and ligaments do not have a blood supply so their growth is prompted by volume. Ask any doctor who's opened anyone up and they will tell you that the tendons and ligaments of runners feet and knees are far thicker and stronger than an average person.

@@bjf5027 So? Has this doctor you imagine looked at the tendons of HIT bodybuilders and found them thin & inadequate? Parts of the body that do not have a blood supply are prompted to grow by volume only? Quit pretending that you know what you are talking about.

The actual genous and the creator creator of HIT Arthur Jones was also the creator of modern machines

No he didn't.

Anabolic and recreational drug abuse probably contributed more to their health problems than their training.

That's not clear at all. I'm 59 years old and making great gains with it.

I think Arnold went very close to failure

Because they think they need to do this amount of work, so that is why they say it. I'll bet they've never experimented with such training out of fear of losing their gains with so much time off between sessions.

Volume absolutely didnt work to my satisfaction, hit already does just after a few sessions, to each their own brother!

What people don't understand is that this type of HIT training with high intensity with low volume and low intensity with high volume elicit the same results, it's just that HIT training takes less time to reach muscular failure and is more convenient .
