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.

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.

Can we Build Muscles without supplements

Fat to Fit Natural Bodybuilding without supplements is a new series on my youtube channel.I shall share my diet, training routine and progress. I have always been a Big fan of Mike Mentzer and I believe in his training methods. Can we Build Muscles without supplements you may ask, I say yes.
Like Arthur Jones, mike Mentzer, Casey viator and Dorian Yates I love the heavy duty training methods. I believe if you are able to create the intensity to stimulate the muscle growth then high volume is not necessary.The uniqueness of this series is I train without any supplements and train at home so it eliminates machines and its all about free weights. Thats where it deviates from mike Mentzer routine since machines are involved more in his routine, like the Nautilus machines.
This is Episode 1 od my Training. Please comment and share your feedback

Bodyhack Episode 1

Bodyhack is a new series starting in year 2019 where I change and challenge my body with HIT workout. Real old school high intensity kind of training. All you see is raw training and fly in the wall recording, no editing gimmick or shooting 4k stuff. Follow my journey and build your physique alone with me the old school way. I show you how to do a body transformation without steroids or supplements.

As I said earlier its a on the go fly on the wall kind off vlog on fitness,life , hardships and triumphs. I will not glorify my body transformation journey with crazy editing like top YouTuber's tend to do. I believe in reality than making it lavish and viral. I am sure you will like my journey and support me by watching and giving me constructive feedback.

Now let's talk about my training plan, the principle of my training method is that one should train brief, infrequent and with all intensity aka H.I.T or high intensity training. It was believed that training with high intensity and to a point where it would create muscular failure momentarily yielded great gains and results. Since its intensity, which is the key in this form of training, the training volume and duration of training is very brief compared to traditional volume training where one performs numerous sets and repetitions with low intensity. We all know that training stimulates muscle growth by recruiting new muscle fibers but rest and nutrition is what makes them grow. Adequate rest has to be provided for the body to heal and grow and endure the taxing from next intense workout. Hence a great emphasis is placed on rest and recuperation.

Here I present you Bodyhack episode 1.
