Mentzer Routines Explained

Mike Mentzer was a proponent of High Intensity Training as endorsed and developed by the Nautilus creator Arthur Jones.

However, Mike was blessed with a free-thinking analytical mind, which lead him to explore the muscle building methods used by his peers - an exploration that resulted in his own muscle building HEAVY DUTY SYSTEM that is successfully used today.

Bodybuilding Heresy

For a while many in the bodybuilding world considered Mike Mentzer's works bodybuilding heresy. Yet in time his routines - and the science of muscle building that informed them - were to find a dedicated and committed following, including amongst them, the 6 times Mr. Olympia Dorian Yates.

Consider how a typical muscle building workout consisted of MANY exercises for MULTIPLE sets and with workout times that sometimes lasted HOURS, and you can see how Mentzer's HEAVY DUTY methods were viewed with suspicion!

However, such skepticism could not last. Soon these SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES were embraced by the wider populace resulting in a legacy befitting this remarkable man.

HEAVY DUTY Training Secrets

HEAVY DUTY training works on the premise that for a muscle to grow it must first be significantly stressed.

Following this stress, the fatigued muscle must then enjoy a period of RECOVERY which in due course leads to MUSCLE GROWTH.

However, perhaps the most startling aspect of HEAVY DUTY in its most stripped-down form is the method's frequency!

Consider:

• ONE SINGLE set
• ONE SINGLE exercise per body-part
• THREE-FIVE days RECOVERY.

Can so little exercise cause such big gains? Bodybuilding heresy for sure, yet these methods work!
