About this ebook
A PAPERBACK ORIGINAL
High-intensity bodybuilding advice from the first man to win a perfect score in the Mr. Universe competition
This one-of-a-kind book profiles the high-intensity training (HIT) techniques pioneered by the late Mike Mentzer, the legendary bodybuilder, leading trainer, and renowned bodybuilding consultant. His highly effective, proven approach enables bodybuilders to get results--and win competitions--by doing shorter, less frequent workouts each week. Extremely time-efficient, HIT sessions require roughly 40 minutes per week of training--as compared with the lengthy workout sessions many bodybuilders would expect to put in daily.
In addition to sharing Mentzer's workout and training techniques, featured here is fascinating biographical information and striking photos of the world-class bodybuilder--taken by noted professional bodybuilding photographers--that will inspire and instruct serious bodybuilders and weight lifters everywhere.

Reviews for High-Intensity Training the Mike Mentzer Way

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Mike Mentzer was the big man before Arnie came onto the bodybuilding scene. He is as much philosopher as he is bodybuilder and his ideas on the mind/body balance have been pivotal in the way many of the great bodybuilders operate. His ideas on intensity and speed being one of the most important aspects of the workout have evolved my routine to great benefit. If you like your slow, steady, grinding workouts, don;t read this book.
