Mike Mentzer style of Training - EP 7
Welcome to the episode 7 of Mike mentzer style of training. Mike mentzer is an huge inspiration in terms of not only a great bodybuilder but a great mind who went against the grains and came up with his own system of training. I feel his method of training is very good for general public and bodybuilders and athletes.
yes, there may be few points which i disagree, but overall he was correct. likewise I like Arthur Jones too. Arthur jones was the one who came with this style of training. He said training should be brief and intense and not long like marathon. There has always been debate whether this form of training can yield great results, well the answer is yes. but again there needs to be little bit of twicking.In terms of bodybuilding many have trained this way, like mike mentzer, Casey victor, Dorian Yates and many more.
For past week it's been raining heavily and can't even go out without getting drenched. so i started working out from home whenever I can't make it to gym.

Mike Mentzer style of Training - EP 6
The transformation is going good and one thing i would like to point out is whe. I start to lift weights i tend to put on muscle quick. Ofcourse, you do gain fat with that as well. There is no way you can just gain muscle and not fat. This episode on my YouTube channel i share and talk about best training methods, what's worked for me interms of training, rep range and sets.
If you are not aware high intensity Workout or heavy Duty Workout style was started by aurther jones, followed by Casey viator and then by Mike mentzer and he add his own observation and recommendation to it. He made it popular. Train Less and make gain more muscle and cutting down the frequency of workouts.
I did a leg workout today, now this my own spin to the method keeping the principle the same which is training to failure, breif and infrequent. When I want to build muscle this is something I follow and has served me well.
So here is my workout.
leg press and few other exercises are the only ones i do multiple sets to warm up and get the body ready and avoid injury.

Body Transformation Leg and Conditioning workout
Build muscle, cut fat and stay jacked. Well, that's what I intended to do. Most of the times we ignore the conditioning of our cardio and body and just focus on one form of training or exercise routine or diet plan.We need variety and fluidity in our approach, sure, use what's worked well for you but always be up for change.
If you follow me be it on YouTube, where I have ton of fitness and bodybuilding videos or Instagram where i share my diet and travel and food and body transformation pictures. You will know I like to train smart and time efficient. This week I did leg day and cardio, jumping rope for good 45 minutes. I did functional fitness and dumbell thrusters.
mixing traditional bodybuilding workouts with functional fitness is great and can yield great results. Diet has been pretty clean and cut down on sugar and junk food. My transformation is going good so far and will keep you friends updated.

Mike Mentzer Style Training - Workout 1
mike mentzer heavy duty training has been a great way to train for me personally and i am happy with the results so far.
High intensity training full body routine is a 15 to 30 minutes in the gym is all it takes and it can be as infrequent as once in 8 days based on one's recovery and ability to train intense.
The workout uses 80/20 principle to
breakdown traditional weight training into its minimalist element that are essential for muscle growth.
1. Progressive overload
2. focus on negative part of the moment.
3. safe on joints and tendons.
4. one set to failure
5. saves time while builds you tremendous muscle based on one's genetic potential.
