Hi Jonathan,

I'm afraid the entire site seems to be down right now - it isn't just the video part. Will try and find alternative ones elsewhere.

(Let me know if you come across any yourself).

Every time I try to click the link for the videos it says "redirected to many times" and wont let me see them. I have been trying to find these videos for hours.

Absolutely loved this video as well as Chris Duffins. Put their "wedge" technique (https://physiqz.com/powerli... to use and it boosted my deadlift dramatically. Did you see Ben's squat at record breakers? 4x his bodyweight in wraps should be considered freakishly insane.

Hit sucks.

“Typical response from a guy who made gains following Mike's principles and methods is what you should have written.”

Not many gains I bet if any. I’ve seen you hitters come into the gym. Make a big noise with your one set training only to burn out and not to be seen again.

“I am glad I stumbled upon Mike as I was not making any gains doing high volume as Arnold was promising I would make. I think you are clueless, and have probably struggled with high volume.”

Nope. I do volume and gain very well. Besides, the volume should be cycled. Sometimes I do lower volume but not low volume. Other times I do higher volume. Works very well. This was ho Arnold trained. He did lower volume in the offseason then trained with high volume during precontest. If you trained with high volume all the time that’s your fault. Not arnold’s. Should have used some sense and listen to your body. Plus try eating a little bit more. That helps.

“Have you seen the male gymnasts? They don't even lift weights, they use bodyweight and yet they look like bodybuilders.”

Yes and they do high volume and frequency that built there bodies.

“At my gym I only see one or two that look like they are making any gains, and they do low volume to failure.”

Hmm, on steroids perhaps? Or, of course, you could be lying. I’ve seen guys in my gym make gains on volume. Hit just burns people out.

“Myself, I am in and out of the gym within 45 minutes and I am worn out afterwards. You should try it for 6 months, what are you scared of? Hard work?”

I can guarantee you volume would be harder than mentzer’s Hit any day. Try doing squats followed by leg press and leg extensions for 5 sets each with only a minute rest between sets for 8-12 reps. That’s hard. Then get up the next day to do the next couple of body parts. That’s hard. Or I’ve seen guys do full body workouts 3 times a week for an hour and a half. They train hard too but still do a good amount of volume. Like I said the best bodies in the world were built by volume. Fact.

Captain Mantastic — Tue, 28 Nov 2017 11:21:59 -0000

Ha, but are they top champions? Nope. Plus they always end up doing a variation of Mentzer’s system which most likely means they do extra volume and a higher frequency. Not only that they’re most likely on steroids. This was the case back in the 80’s when they had supposedly drug free trainers do mentzer’s Hit only later for them to admit they were taking steroids.

You crack me up! There are competitive natural bodybuilders who use Mike's heavy duty method, and you dare to poo poo it? It's a reflection of your social intelligence that you are stubborn beyond belief, and you are?? Your opinion is of no value. Give up.

Because it works. Real world evidence proves that.

Captain Mantastic — Mon, 27 Nov 2017 16:54:54 -0000

Yeah, yeah , yeah. Typical Mentzer follower response. The training system is highly flawed. Can pregnant women do this type of training? Or an elderly person? Or someone with injuries or disabilities? No. This training would not suit them. You really have no argument but instead just a very dogmatic idea of training. There are way better ways to train and are way more effective.

You are a boring twit, you stick to your high volume, it suits you.

You don't possess a scientific mind, and can't accept that less is indeed more. It does work, but only for those who follow his advice to the letter and don't over do it. Heavy Duty does work, maybe you should.
