Learn how to train - High Intesnity Training

Ive used this way of training for years and its one of the best protocols there is for building size and muscle. If you can't get a spotter simply go with dropsets over forced reps..........watch and learn and listen to Dorian because its priceless

Mates excuse my ignorance as I have a stream of naïve questions here:
What I understand is each vid from the above represents a training day, so this means that the reps displayed are THE OVERALL REPS FOR ALL TRAINING WEEK? just these reps? 4 days a week and 3 days rest?
I'm kinda surprised as for ex. I used to do 16 reps for chest twice a week (4 flat, 4 incline, 4 decline and 4 fly on the chest day twice a week)

NOW all I have to do is ~8 reps for chest a week?!

**songdog** · 10-24-2012, 04:06 AM

Great info

2 warm up sets and one working set is all whats needed, some do 2 working sets but once you have worked the muscle to failure and beyond by using max weight+forced+negs etc there is nothing more whats needed. All tjose ests and reps are being wasted incorporate them into one/two working sets and your done

chest and biceps

**gearbox** · 11-15-2012, 10:44 AM

Thanks Marcus
I started doing this on Monday. I did one warm up set then two working. I have a spot so I did forced reps/negatives
Mon-chest tri
Wed-legs shoulders
I am ridiculously sore. that is why I am doing 1 day on 1 day off.
Love feeling the pumps
Love the shorter work out

**gearbox** · 11-16-2012, 12:59 AM

Still going great! Wish I would of implemented sooner.
Marcus - do you see anything wrong with 1 on 1 off work out days. Two muscles each work out day

No not at all, one major muscle group and one minor is fine 1on 1off, what ever works for you and so long as the results keep on coming..

thanks for info OP

**krugerr** · 11-20-2012, 11:14 AM

Id forgotten about these videos. I just rewatched these, and since I have just finished reading Ellington Dardens - 'The New HIT', I have a firmer understanding of why the negatives are so important, and why that failure set is vital. When I followed this routine before, I did get bigger and stronger, but my working set I just hit 8-10 reps, I never went to complete failure. Its something Im going to incorperate in my new years course.

Thats correct, negs are very important and so are forced and drop sets - you want big thick set muscles incorporate them and use the principles in the above videos

**krugerr** · 11-21-2012, 02:28 AM

Yessir!

Nice AVI by the way Marcus!

**krugerr** · 11-27-2012, 07:29 AM

So I have just read 'The Wisdom of Mike Mentzer' and I have another Mike Mentzer book in the post. I'm really starting to understand and appreciate HIT. It's weird to see that this information has been around since the 80's and yet, it's still not widely used.
I think I'm a convert, although I can't see myself training MM's condensed workout of 2sets every 7 days, anytime soon at least. I want to build a gym filled with oldskool nautilus machines.

**copaaz** · 12-12-2012, 10:10 PM

I have been running HIT (DY style, no gear) for about 6 weeks now and I'm seeing very nice gains.
