I agree.

I've been dieting and increasing my cardio. I also have been rehabing a torn rotator cuff. I decided to take some time off from all shoulder related training for a break. After over 2 weeks, I hit a workout and was warming up on the bench. The weights felt SOOOO light...I just kept adding weight. I ended up working with the heaviest poundage I've used in 8 months!

I am now benching and deadlifting only every 2 weeks with the off week being used for legs and arms.

Mentzer was a genious.
