Wisdom of Mike Mentzer

More than any other bodybuilding writer or authority, Mike Mentzer single-handedly changed the way bodybuilders the world over have looked at exercise. A logical (and necessary) companion volume to MentzerĹźs last book (High Intensity Training The Mike Mentzer Way, which was also co-authored by Little), The Wisdom of Mike Mentzer goes much further. Whereas the former book revealed the fundamentals of MentzerĹźs revolutionary ĹźHeavy DutyĹź training system, the latter presents not only MentzerĹźs final and most recent discoveries and innovations, but also never-before-released ĹźadvancedĹź training techniques that were known only to MentzerĹźs inner circle and personal clients. Illustrated with the most motivational photographs ever taken of Mentzer (in the gym, posing, and at work) as well as a gallery of his greatest inspirational physique shots, The Wisdom of Mike Mentzer is THE definitive book on the exacting science of building muscle-- fast. Some of the materials revealed for the first time within the pages of this book are: Ĺź How excessive training is slowing down your progressĹź The importance of working to the "point of failure" Ĺź MentzerĹźs pioneering use of the early Nautilus machinesĹź A complete ĹźHeavy DutyĹź seminar Ĺź Mike MentzerĹźs ĹźMost ProductiveĹź Routine Ĺź Advanced ĹźHeavy DutyĹź training techniques Ĺź A workout of two sets performed once a week Ĺź and why Mentzer thought it worked Ĺźlike magicĹź compared to any other bodybuilding program. Ĺź How to push past mental and physical plateaus Additionally, the Mentzer estate has made available to the author never-before-released written, audio and video materials (including MentzerĹźs research into a revolutionary workout that consists of but two sets performed once every seven days that caused one client to actually ĹźdoubleĹź his bodyweight in one year!) from the Mike Mentzer archives, which, when combined with LittleĹźs unique personal history with Mentzer and full understanding of his training methods, have resulted in startling new insights and novel applications of MentzerĹźs revolutionary ĹźHeavy DutyĹź training method.
