For Dorian Yates = 35 minutes.

He was on a very specialized HIT training program known as "ALL DRUGS", then he would write about it in FLEX magazine as if we could all apply those same techniques drug free and make gains.  ::)

For me, around 90 minutes.

its not how much time is spent in the gym that matters


only one thing matters and that is total pounds lifted per day

you maybe happy if you reach a new strength level for a max or complete a high volume workout. but what matters is the total number of pounds lifted in your workout was more than any other time you have lifted in your life. if you simply do not reach your personal best on total amount of weight lifted then expect the same in return. if you lifted 200 400 3000 more pounds than anyother workout you have just set a new standard for your body . in natural bodybuilding that means expect to grow and expect to make adjustments in diet to produce and even higher level next time you want to push yourself

anything less is simply maintenance and submaximal effort dont expect to get more muscle even if you did set a maximum bench press record in reality that couldve came from a number of circumstances, form, speed, not training the day before and being fully loaded for a one rep max, none of these equat to muscle gains only a consistent number of pounds lifted over a period of time does day weekly monthly ect.

So if I curl a 1 pound dumbell for 14 hours straight that is the greatest muscle building workout?

db2431  if you did a 1 pound dumbel for 10 min 1 rep a second thats only 600 pounds

BODYBUILDER A  now if you benched 135 for 10 min at 1 rep every 2 seconds for 10 min that is like 6,800 pounds big difference

BODYBUILDER B  what if you benched 450 like some juicers 1 rep a minute  for 10 minutes thats only 4,500

so do what you CAN do and dont be stupid and lifting heavy because if your total aint higher your not doing a damn thing

Do you Juice, yes or no?

no but i have smoked crack before like 3 times in my life and snorted coke about 8 times in my life, did extacy 2 times, did around 20 hits of acid in my life over a span of two days and thats it. smoked weed nearly every day for the past 4 years and off and on for about 5 years. never done meth or heroin. i have tried special k once and that was scary ill never do that again

i would never juice because i like the way i look facially , and every person ive seen that has done juice doesnt have the greatest face and many have that permenant head growth or facial structure change or bad skin

of course im striving to push my body to its limits and ofcourse i have lots of room to improve thats why i go to drastic measures to make any little change in my body that is possible naturally
