Arnold VS Mentzer: The Definitive Thread

[The RedMeatKid]

I'm ready to bring the Arnold VS Mike Mentzer (Volume Training VS HIT) to a conclusion for once and for all.  I hereby go on record saying that Arnold is The Man, that Volume Training is the best way to go, and Mike Mentzer was a weirdo.  End of story.

The mentzer way is best for naturals due to recovery from excercise. If you take roids then volume is ok.

I'm currently doing a cycle of Hot Stuff and doing Arnold's routine and I can't wait to get back in the gym tonight.

There's no set rules. Everyone is at different stages of training and being able to put stress on the muscle.

I would do more sets for a beginner because they don't have the strength or time in the gym to break down the muscle in only a few. Training heavier also helps with this. But as you get stronger you need less. The longer you train the better you can break down the muscle with a set so you need less. That's all there is, that's how Dorian did it.

Arnold doing that much in his prime says to me he didn't have enough intensity....but it was Arnold so i guess he did. So drugs definately offset things there. I know even when i was on gear doing even 10 sets per bodypart would have compeletely fucked me so i can only say he wasn't really putting everything into every set. You just can't do that for 10 sets for one bodypart if you are strong enough.

Yeah right.

HIT doesn't work for everyone and Arnold is the man

Sigh. Intensity will always stand triumphant over volume, this isn't even a debate. PROPER HIT training will give you the most bang for your buck.

To each their own. It works for me and at least a dozen other people I train with and have trained.

Of course I don't, I'm 21 and devoid of all drugs. I do however look better than all of the natural volume trainers at any of the gyms that I train at, especially considering how little time compared to them I actually spend training.

[PJim]

Might I add, I love Arnold AND Mentzer for different reasons.
