RMJ is Definitely a volume guy.

Volume works. That's why.

Here is the BOTTOM line....

Despite 50 years of the theory, HIT theory has failed to produce the promised results. HIT was tried by almost every gym rat in the 70s-80s because, lets face it, who doesn't want the same or better results with less time in the gym? Only problem is..it didn't work well for people.

Look at how the modern bodybuilders who are winning contests train...is it like HIT? or...higher volume? HVT only exists as an ex post facto..meaning, no ones goal is to train "high volume". That is simply what the optimal routine looks like for most people after the routine is planned out. I don't know one person who says "I'm going to do high volume just because..."

Effective routines just happen to look like "HVT" when all is said and done. Volume rules.

Looks like Rod "the animal" Koontz..  was Rod a volume guy?  Other than his wildly creative tattoo,  I wonder how he earned that nickname?

Larry Pollock said he was surprised how quickly Mike responded to training during this time. Said Mike would get hopped up on dexidrene a hit the gym. I think he said the training wasn't anything extraordinarily different than what everyone else was doing.  No extreme heavy duty bullshit.  Standard warm up stuff and a few sets to failure.  Pollock also said Mentzer was confirmed homosexual by that stage of his life.

Hit-tites

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hittites

The Hittites (/ˈhɪtaɪts/) were an Anatolian Indo-European people who formed one of the first major civilizations of Bronze Age West Asia. Possibly originating from beyond the Black Sea,[2] they settled in modern day Turkey in the early 2nd millennium BC. The Hittites formed a series of polities in north-central Anatolia, including the kingdom of Kussara (before 1750 BC), the Kanesh or Nesha kingdom (c. 1750–1650 BC), and an empire centered on Hattusa (around 1650 BC).[3][4] Known in modern times as the Hittite Empire, it reached its height during the mid-14th century BC under Šuppiluliuma I, when it encompassed most of Anatolia and parts of the northern Levant and Upper Mesopotamia.
