Title: Why such low weights when training with Milos???
Post by: Bluto on July 05, 2007, 08:40:51 AM
I'm pretty sure they would get far better result if they starting training more like Ronnie!

How come they all look like they want to throw up after a training session with Milos?

I would think that it would be hard to put on a bunch of muscle whilest training in the manner of Milos, but it would be good for refining a lot of bulky mass.  I personally would enjoy the training and that is what it is all about to me.

I think it works. I've tried heavy -- remember I trained for strongman for about 4 years. Went to WSM '98 in Morocco as a stand-in. So, I think I have a bit of experience training low-volume, heavy compound weight movements.

This is much, much better for size.

And last week when I did the pink dumbell workout for shoulders, I pushed it so far that my eyes teared up...that was a first for me. But imo, my shoulders are getting jakked.

he just doesnt wanna give away his secret.

When you lift a submaximal load for many many reps you recruit the SLOW twitch fibers and thus result in Sarcoplasmic hypertrophy.... however when you use 90% or more of your percived 1rep MAX you RECRUIT the FAST TWITCH fibers which result in Sarcomere hypertrophy... most responsibly for muscle growth and myogenic tone.

For best results always cycle HEAVY loads in your training.

Most bbers dont do this.... the very reason you should NEVER listen to the advice a bber gives in reguards to weight training.

You are somewhat right. Muscle fibers are recruited in order: from slow to fast. When you perform a lift the slow fibers come in to play first, always. When the load is too heavy for just the slow fibers to handle, the faster fibers come in to play.

The difference between sarcoplasmic and sarcomere hypertrophy has nothing to do with the difference between slow and fast fibers. With sarcoplasmic hypertrophy the volume of the tissue that supplies energy to the fibers (all fibers) is increased. To put it simpler: your muscles hold more fluids. This kind of hypertrophy accurs from lighter weights, higher reps trainig.

With sarcomere hypertrophy the volume of contractile machinery is increased: the volume of the actual muscle tissue increases.

The fast muscle fibers are much more susceptible to damage from weight training and that's why heavy weights, fewer reps is indeed the way to go for sarcomere hypertrophy.

Still the muscle fluids count for something like 20% of a muscles volume so you shouldn't discard sarcoplasmic hypertrophy neither.

And puking is a very effective weight control method - they really don't use drugs like T3 or clen -- just barf it up. Ask any pro...or Adam.

And who's to say that, for those particular bodybuilders, the methods they are currently aren't the best (or among the best).

How many guys bench lots of weight yet have lousy chests?

As one bodybuilding writer put it, "One type of training and one type of diet cannot and will not build a championship body".

There are times to lift heavy and there are times to lift lighter. Arnold himself has said much the same, specifically with arms. He wrote that he's seen bodybuilders do curls with 100-lb dumbbells; yet they are dumbfounded as to why their arms are still 18"; but they see Arnold using 60s, sporting his 21" guns.

As for the "puking", that's certainly not intentional. When reading about Milos and the guys he trains, the only I recall puking was Luke Wood (But, Wood had the flu for about a week or so).

in this thread this particular training is discussed.

as for puking, yet it seems intentional. maybe you need to watch some of the episodes from the fit show. training to you puke seems to be part of milos macho attitude when it comes to training.

the same attitude he displayed when asked on the radio what he thought about failure, where he said they always do it and you have to make up your mind if you want to train hard or some shit like that.

Puking has nothing to do with being macho. More often than not, it's simply a guy, getting dizzy or not getting enough rest between sets. I used to puke when I trained legs. Turns out, I kept holding my breath, while doing reps with heavy weight. So, I deliberately inhaled and exhaled, with a super-deep breath on the inhale and a big blowout on the exhale.

No more dizziness, no more puking!

Plus, it appears the bodybuilders are quite advanced. So, they have plenty of muscle, likely obtain from earlier years of more basic (and likely heavier) training.

In any event, it certainly isn't the first time, bodybuilders have switched to training, using lighter weights and more supersets and giant sets, after they've built their physique, to that point, with heavier weights for years prior.

Post by: WhiteCastle on July 05, 2007, 12:55:38 PM
If I'm correct, I think his training methods use lower weights because they basically do 6-9 different exercises targeting that specific muscle group with no rest in between.  So it can come out to around 90-120 reps with little to no rest.

How come "manly-men" like you didn't show up at Milos's seminar and put yourselves on the line by actually going through the training session.

I can promise you doing 6 -12 exercises in a row with no more than 5 to 10 seconds rest is a lot harder than it looks.

Bingo.

I think it's good for bodybuilders looking to refine muscle, but it's not for building muscle necessarily.

Bodybuilding and powerlifting are completely different.

Milos could take a powerlifter and make him a decent bodybuilder, no doubt.

But I'd take tips on form for bench, DL, squat from a powerlifter over Milos.

While your statement may be correct, it shows that you completely misunderstand Milos’s training method.

It is not doing sub-maximal load for many reps.

On the first exercise you train to max for approximately 10 reps, your rest 5 to 10 seconds while getting into place for the next exercise which is the maximum load at THAT time.

Since you have been pre-exhausted by the first exercise, you then proceed to each exercise repeating the process training with the maximum load at THAT time, each time.

The shoulder exercise that everyone like to make fun of is a leverage movement and not a press. It is done as the 7th exercise in a giant set.

At my gym I took three guys who are all capable of doing seated front presses with 225 pounds for 8 reps and had them do this Milos shoulder exercise, with NO pre-exhaustion exercises. None of them could get 10 reps with a pair of 5 pound dumbbells.

The difference between sarcoplasmic and sarcomere hypertrophy has nothing to do with the difference between slow and fast fibers.  Wrong, Performing sets of 15 reps will target the SLOW TWITCH ( TYPE I) and also promote Sarcoplasmic hypertrophy, And at the other end of the spectrum performing sets of 3 reps will RECRUIT TYPE IIB FAST TWITCH fibers and also promote Myofrybl(sp?)

Well I can do this later but don't have the time right now. The challenge is that some of the exercises are a bit out of the norm so it will be difficult to describe them without demonstrating them. I'll give it a shot later. The loads will be an individual matter AND a matter of conditioning to THIS type of training.  

Let me say that part of the reason I like this method is that it allows me to train with maximal load DESPITE injuries.

There must be several paths to maximum hypertrophy. Does Milos have such a path? He says he does and those who try his method seem convinced. Sergio did something like what Milos advocates way back in 1971-2 under Arthur Jones. Sergio never kept that size when he returned to Chicago and his old methods.

I have a different idea to what Milos advocates. Perhaps there is a equivalence if the muscle is triggered to grow.

How come "manly-men" like you didn't show up at Milos's seminar and put yourselves on the line by actually going through the training session.

I can promise you doing 6 -12 exercises in a row with no more than 5 to 10 seconds rest is a lot harder than it looks.
no shit your dumb fuck.... go run a marathon and youll see its harder than it looks what were discussing here if its effective... dam your such a dumb fuck

  i have done giant sets, tri sets ect.. and yes, the pain is great.. but, my issue is why we equate pain with hypertrophic results..?  yes.. milos has some painful sessions but, pain does not equate hypertrophy.. that is the logic i can not understand.. i am not saying it does not work but, can not understand the logic..
  as far as using max loads using this method.. that can not happen.. one can not use his max load because the build up of fatigue products.. it may "feel" like you max load but, the muscle is not being as taxed because of the weakened state by fatigue products.. so the perception of using "heavy" loads is just that.. a perception.. not the muscles "reality"..
  i would like to know milos logic using this method based a physiology.. again.. not saying it cant work.. just confused on the logic.. i see some doing steve michalik's training and saying they are getting great results doing 50 or more sets a bodypart ect.. the problem i have again is that some of them are loseing to those who are doing 10 sets a bodypart and they are not any bigger or more conditioned than the low set group.. then why endure the "pain" and beating if it does not translate into much larger gains??

I quote Milos's saying :
THE MOST IMPORTANT for a bodybuilder: DON'T EVER THINK, CONSIDER, MENTION, BE FOCUSED ON....etc...etc - ON AMOUNT OF WEIGHT...ANY  AMOUNT...rather - focus on STIMULATING THE MUSCLES REGARDLESS OF THE WEIGHT USED...
MY BODYBUILDING doesn't ever considers numbers and poundages...Weight is absolutely NOT IMPORTANT...
Title: Re: Why such low weights when training with Milos???
Post by: Vince B on July 05, 2007, 09:45:43 PM
The logic must make sense.....eventually. Even in Milos's system there must be progression for gains to accumulate. That is probably true for all systems. The subject of load vs intensity seems to confuse people. I suppose some feel there must be a lower threshold below which no hypertrophy will occur. Milos might suggest that this threshold gets lowered when you do his training.

Larry Scott recommended quick training using partial reps and ascending and descending sets. Up and down the racks for biceps and deltoids. Many of us have tried that protocol with varying success. Few sustain that kind of training. Perhaps it isn't that easy to do it in busy gyms.

Should there be lactic acid pain when training to grow? Not necessarily but probably. The question is can you sustain growth with sub-maximal effort? It may be unlikely. Question to muscle? Why should it grow?

All hypertrophy training is an attempt to trigger growth. If you can do it in 1 set, as long as it is safe to do so, then why do more? That is what HIT asked. The trouble is there are no HIT champions. Not one. Therefore we can accept that some kind of volume training is required. Is it necessary to train quickly as Milos suggests? I don't think so. Will training quickly induce growth? There is no doubt about that. Will it sustain growth? That is unknown but Milos is confident it does.

I approach hypertrophy from the results point of view then try to reverse engineer training programs. I assume that rapid growth is accompanied by delayed onset muscle soreness. No soreness and there is no rapid or substantial growth. This is not accepted by the bodybuilding community and that doesn't surprise me because most have no idea what to do to keep growing. If they did they would already be huge without drugs.

Okay, this is the test of the DOMS theory. First you have to use whatever protocols you like to get your biceps really DOMS sore for several days. If you can achieve that state you should be 1/16 to 1/10th inch larger. Then you retrain your biceps before the soreness disappears. That means retraining every 3rd or 4th day. It may be possible to train more frequently but not beneficial or necessary. The trick is to do only what is sufficient at any time to generate maximum hypertrophy. Practically speaking, we are most pleased if we can measure our growth and it is positive after every workout.

If you get your biceps sore and they don't grow, and you have a positive nitrogen balance and are gaining weight then the DOMS theory is false.

No, it's not from the shake. Cuz the people I saw puking weren't drinking anything during their workout. 

Plus, the shake is made so it doesn't really suck energy from your system for digestion. It's aminos and dextrose -- neither really require much digestion.

I ALWAYS drank something w/ my workouts w/ Milos...even before he told me anything about his "shake" (its more like Cool-Aid). I started drinking a similar mix about 6 months earlier just cuz it made sense to me. But even tho I always drank something, and always kept up in the workouts, I never puked.

Considering that you've never tried the method how would you know its effectiveness?

You do not understand the simple concept that there are dozens of ways to achieve high intensity and results... not just one method as certain writers have influenced you to believe.

Dumb is someone who reads the rules and accepts them blindly. Genius comes when someone is willing to question the rules and experiment outside them.

Vince, serious question; why train before soreness disappears? Conventional thinking might suggest this is "overtraining."

Will this not prevent you from executing exercises with maximal exertion (either in reps, amount of weight, or volume of sets?)

So the squat ALWAYS has to be the first exercise and not the fourth or fifth? You could never do extensions, lunges, hacks and then squats?   

Hmmmm... I'll have to remember that.

If you’ve built quality muscle with conventional training and heavy weights why do you think that it is just going to wilt and dry up with a month or two of experimenting with something else?

Do you really think that muscle development is THAT volatile?

I’m not even arguing that one should completely switch over to Milo’s type of training (and by the way he did not originate the method, Steve Michalik has been training people like this for years. Arthur Jones, Gironda, Larry Scott and many others all had their own variations of this method).

allright ive took a quick look at the video again, hard to see what their first exercise is, but let's say the first set is the hardest and the rest is without rest then it wont come down to strength it will come down to endurance. the more endurance you got the better off you are. otherwise you will not be able to get very far, end up puking etc, not because your muscles say stop - but because your endurance say stop and your conditioning.

so let's say it's 1 set heavy and - 3-4 sets for endurance
why this would be better than 3 set heavy is beyond me.

looks like your cheating yourself off 2 heavy sets (or 4-5 or even 6 sets if you're into volume, like for example lee priest)

someone like ronnie wouldnt do ver well since he wont have the heart and conditioning for this type of training. on the other hand, those who who do would have a hard time training like ronnie because theyre not used to that kinda weight for several sets.

My problem with milos style of training is the volume. You should do the least amount of volume possible to stimulate muscle so you can recover quicker and hit a muscle more frequently so you can get more growth phases. Milos style takes longer to recover from which means less growth phases.

I do the Arnolds Encyclopedia Bodybuilding routine though it takes me 2/2 to3 hours to do 6 days a week 3 muscle groups a week it works well though compared to Milos routine i take 1to 2 minute rests per set.Some of what Croatch said is true you have the androgens in your body you grow like a weed if you stimulate the muscle groups in any manner.I use the dark side of the force sometimes and thats when im balls to the wall Heavy and change my routine to core lifts heavy with fewer reps and sets.
But i have found natural with volume is your best bet be it Milos way or Arnies way you get the best results and i truly believe if you followed Milos routine you would grow to your natural genetic size.But than can be said of half dozen routines put out by the gurus you just have to be intense and fanaticle about your training.

Let's do it the other way around - you can come to Prague and train with me.

First we'll do breathing squats - 20 reps and 10 sets. no rest between.

Then we'll do hill sprints.

Then we'll go swimming.

Then we'll go bowling.

Then we'll go pushing a car in a parking lot.

After that we'll go to Burger King and bench the fattest person there for reps.

I'm sure eventually we'll both get tired and possibly puke. What does that tell us about putting on muscle mass? Nothing.

But it sure would be hardcore and I guess that's what counts right?

Getting stronger=Getting bigger provided nutrition and rest are adequate, simple as that. You can dropset, super set, giant set, etc. all you want but if the weight doesn't increase or increases slowly gains are going to be little(slow weight increase) to none(no increase). This is common sense.

Getting stronger=Getting bigger provided nutrition and rest are adequate, simple as that. You can dropset, super set, giant set, etc. all you want but if the weight doesn't increase or increases slowly gains are going to be little(slow weight increase) to none(no increase). This is common sense.
haha, omg...ok, so that must mean that all pro bbers would murder all pro powerlifters and/or strongmen in strength contests since pro bbers muscles are like 3x as big.

Common sense, eh? Some deep thinkers on this board, there are.

chris is right. stronger does equal bigger, your muscles get bigger by getting stronger. not by getting weaker. but as usual confusing this with 'x person will automatically be bigger than y because he is stronger' which is not the case of course. all bodybuilders regardless of whether smaller one is stonger or not, got stronger when they got bigger. when kevin levrone shrinks down to his 150lb or whatever size it is, he gets weaker, not stronger and doesn't keep any of that strength. no coincidence he also is a hell of a lot smaller. when he gets bigger, HE gets stronger. not the turd who can deadlift 500lb at 140lb, but Kevin himself .. just like eating more calories than you take in will lead to weight gain but this doen't mean there aren't people who can eat junk food all day and not get fat. same thing and all relative to someone else. and to look like a bodybuilder you must train like one so of course it's not enough just to be strong. otherwise everyone who could lift the most would look the best. but if u want to be a big bodybuilder, then yes you must get stronger, while training like one.  i cant recall anyone looking ripped to shredds ie stage ready by doing 900lb deadlifts once a month. Can you?


hope this helps you!

Its not about the weight, tis about intensity.

really? ok

guy 1 - does 3 sets of squats with the bar only, no rest between sets
guy 2 - does 3 sets of squats with 4 plates per side 2 minutes rest between sets

you say guy 1 will have better development.

Guy 2 is actually training the muscles more intense, where as guy 1 is training the cardiovascular system more intense. So as long as he didn't confuse the difference in intensity, than he would be right.

Yes but i doubt from doing 35 pound shoulder presses etc.. If course you are going to get injured. The key to to avoid it. Those types of work outs are the most efficient. Notice how all Milo's guys are lean year round. Most, if not all are placing very high.

Hmm if your stupid azz has done real research, you'd know that Milos trains very heavy. Go watch him do legs at his gym. It's always a great idea to switch things up and go for very high volume and extreme failure sometimes. You should try it. It does work great. Milos trains guys like this sometimes becuz, truth is, way too many bodybuilders (advanced or rookies, including Bluto) can't leave their ego at the gym door. They go heavy all year round because they feel like a pussy lifting light weight. In the process, they cheat themselves of muscle growth.

so what made you injure yourself at 10 plates? wouldnt your legs be weaker this time around and because of that there's a risk of injury at 8 plates?
if you can get away with one plate why would you do 8 plates per side?

and having people do your workout would prove what? that people eventually get tired? i can have you and 10 guys getting tired at my gym in prague and i wont charge you either!
would that make you  believe that my methods are the best because i would make you outta breath?

ive watched the 17+ pages or so long thread from garreths workout at milos gym and of a hundred pictures posted maybe 1-2 has heavy weights. the rest is barbell only or one plate a side etc.
the lack of rest between sets and the numerous exercises makes people eventually get tired - but is it optimal for hypertrophy?

i can get tired squatting up and down at the toilet with no rest but i have no reason to believe that would build more mass to my legs than any other training program. in fact, im pretty convinced it wouldnt.

quite the opposite, the better body you have the less you potentially know bout training.

Milos's legs look pretty damn big in those pics, some of the best legs of any pro ever IMO.

Pretty much. Bluto's just trolling now...typical for him.


I'm trying to discuss training methods.

With you it's pointless since you know nothing and are unable to think for yourself - you just seek up a guru and do what he tell you. That along with steroid and synthol abuse shows us what a tool you are.

Milos seems to be unable, or unwilling, to go into details rather he plays it safe and says "come to my gym and train!" like that would prove anything. Stupid reasoning.

Why don't you go and post another 500 pictures of you using 1 plate per side regardless of exercise? (and let's not forget walking lunges with NO weight!)

Yes Milos' legs look awesome, but then again so does his abs.  

I've noticed a lot of the stuck forever at 180lb guys around here knock his training because they are affraid to go against what they see in the videos and lift anything other than heavy weight.

Truth be told, whatever this guy does works.  He's craking out top quality physiques.  I'm curious to try his workout.  I've done various forms of training from powerlifting to all machines over the past 13 years with a majority of the lifting being heavy weight training which has built some good size but has left me with some busted up joints.  

I'd be curious to see how it would work at this stage of my development.  This morning I was 243.  I've heard that his offseason to contest ready have resulted in some of the lowest drops in weight but greatest overall change in quality of physique.  I'd love to train with him but right now it's financially and geographically impossible.

whether it works is debatable. clearly he hasnt always trained that way or he wouldnt have injured himself at hack squats with 10 plates per side.
and even if it does work for him, would it work for others, especially non-pros? what would the benefits be to other types of routines?

unfortunately nobody is interesting in discussing this.

You are a FREAK!!! I was just with Milos last week!! I finished training and we were talking in his office in Koloseum gym! At this stage he had not trained in 2 weeks and he showed me how he was looking!!! SHREDDED seratus and quad separation and striations as good as they get!!! i was just shaking my head in amazement at his conditon!!!  And i can honestly tell you as i have seen with my own eyes that this is no DIET at all!!!

Once again Milos took me and 2 other guys through a leg workout and as i had not done giant sets on legs for sometime now, Milos took it easy on me!! of course Milos BREEZED through it and i was struggling a little to say the least!!!
But it was awsome and i cannot wait to be back there!!!

I have been doing giant sets for every workout now since i did this workout with Milos and just after 1 week you can literally see yourself growing all over!!!

Looking incredible Luke.

thankyou!!! That pic was back in 2005! the pic of me struggling with the lunges was last week!!!(Im only a little 265lbs now-resting and HAPPY!! ;D) As i said i had not done giant sets in over 5 mths but now its everyworkout! I was able to pack so much size last year doing these giant sets that Milos showed me. After doing them for 3 mths straight i reached 285lbs at only 7% BF. I was growing and getting leaner and my calorie intake than was 6000 cals! i needed to feed the muscle as these workouts will make you eat as they drain so much out of you!

so what made you injure yourself at 10 plates? wouldnt your legs be weaker this time around and because of that there's a risk of injury at 8 plates?
if you can get away with one plate why would you do 8 plates per side?

and having people do your workout would prove what? that people eventually get tired? i can have you and 10 guys getting tired at my gym in prague and i wont charge you either!
would that make you  believe that my methods are the best because i would make you outta breath?

this isnt an intelligent reasoning.


Hmmmmmm?

Did you think first who is Milos and why do we even talk about his training principles?

Let's see:

Maybe - top trainer who is hired by many athletes to make them IMPROVE their performance (various sports) and/or appearance (bodybuilders).
If we look at his bodybuilders list - we could see long list of guys who were improving dramatically FAST...much faster than others...so people started wondering WHAT IS HE REALLY DOING?

Well, as it normally goes - MAJORITY will conclude - IT MUS BE DRUGS!

Than Milos posts MAXIMAL AMOUNTS that MOST of his athletes will use - but is taken as a "joke"...
Milos must be lying....but nobody really see a reason why?

Well, for those of you who actually believe IN GOOD...I explained my TRAINING THEORY and NUTRITION PROTOCOLS....on my "Secrets of the pros" DVD...
On purpose I didn't even attempt to sell my supplements at first - as people would conclude - that's all I want to do...

Than more than a year ago after 34th episode of the Fitshow when two of my exceptional drug free athletes from Malaysia - Sazali Samad and Teck Liaw Leong came to train with me and were taped for the Fitshow and everybody realized they are taking some special "Milos drinks" - everyone started questioning WHAT IS IT?

When Hidetada Yamagishi and Silvio Samuel entered Ironman and other pros would ask them "what is the secret?" - and they told them - come and train with us and try the drinks...buzz went around...

Off course - now when it is here (on getbig) - we would have what we have here if majority would just COMPLAIN and ATTACK...

Funny thing is - it is DEJA VU for me...
In the early 90's when I was telling top pros what to do - they would not believe me - and they would not even try things I was suggesting - as they thought: I want to "screw" them giving them a wrong info....SO NOBODY EVEN ATTEMPTED TO TRY...(and Nasser was just one of the perfect examples who had a 'formula' from 1993...but scepticism made him wait until 1995 when I reinsured him that IF he tries - he will shock the world....which he did just few short moths later...

Now, I am telling AVERAGE JOES what PROS are doing and Joes are laughing...at my supplements, training protocols...etc...

Keep laughing...I stopped long ago...as I know "the joke".

If I have exact map of the biggest treasure in the world and post it here for everyone to hurry up and get there fast - and grab some fortune - nobody would even bother...
And what's worst - they would tell me to F-myself for being rude A-ole for posting it...

Go figure.

But - to ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS:

1)"if you can get away with one plate why would you do 8 plates per side?"

NONE of my exercises is done with LEAST AMOUNT OF WEIGHT POSSIBLE - BUT WITH MOST!

Even those 'pink dumbbells' you see on the pictures are THE MOST AMOUNT OF WEIGHT guys could possibly lift in that particular exercise!

Just ask Max Rep - how did he feel lifting pair of 6 pound dumbbells in GIANT SETS for shoulders?

So, as far as 8 (20kg) plates per side on a hack squat is the most we can do in that particular segment of the giant set...and one plate just wouldn't do the trick...
At the same time - after we finish 8 plate drops set on hack, do maybe sissy squats right after and ended up on Smith Machine Squat doing alternate lunges with plate per side - most of you will ONLY SEE that particular photo and think: Wow, lunges with one plate on Smith machine is NO BIG DEAL...even I can do that...so Milos and his guys train like sissies....
Did you consider maybe that we did barbell squats, leg press, leg extensions...3 more exercises, than hack squat with 8 plates and sissy squats BEFORE?
And I am talking NO REST BETWEEN EXERCISES (or to be exact 5 to 10 seconds in between).

2) "and having people do your workout would prove what? that people eventually get tired?"

People doing my workout TO GET IN THE BEST SHAPE OF THEIR LIVES - not to get tired Bozo.

And if you live in Prague (one of my favorite cities in the whole world) - I will come to your gym next time I organize appearance there and show you what INTENSITY IS ALL ABOUT...Start training...to be ready for me...
I will offer you two solutions:
 I can do all the exercises with triple amount of weight you will be doing or I can do three times the reps (if you do 10 in each set...I will do 30)...

And WHY would I be able to claim that I can beat you so badly - as I don't even know you?
Well, I can't tell you that yet...as you don't deserve the answer.

However, you can ask some other guys who trained with me...like maybe Troy Alves who in pat 3 days trained 3 times with me and Hide...

ive watched the 17+ pages or so long thread from garreths workout at milos gym and of a hundred pictures posted maybe 1-2 has heavy weights. the rest is barbell only or one plate a side etc.
the lack of rest between sets and the numerous exercises makes people eventually get tired - but is it optimal for hypertrophy?

i can get tired squatting up and down at the toilet with no rest but i have no reason to believe that would build more mass to my legs than any other training program. in fact, im pretty convinced it wouldnt.

EVERY EXERCISE IS DONE TO FAILURE OR ALMOST FAILURE...regardless of the weight used...

"EGO TRAINERS" (obviously YOU) focus on amount of weight rather than WHAT IS BEING DONE...
I can make ANY WEIGHT be impossible to handle IF I just change some training variables...

I tried your style per say in my last leg workout and I have to say I am hooked. My legs felt far more worked then when I trained heavier. I am just sick of loading up lots of plates and putting that stress on my body, I find it far more exhausting and less joint stress to train using light weight and giant sets. I admit though I have not been able to bring my self to train that way for any other body parts though.

Low weight, high reps work wonders for legs.. Not so much the upperbody.

Yeah I haved trained a little bit of every way, I agree but the giant sets (right now I am just sticking to 3-4 exercises depending on how crowded the gym is) are what really has me loving the light weight now. I was almsot passing out and puking between some sets and had to take a 10min break after my main giant set. I am doing good going moderate to heavy on upper body so I just want to stick with it.

Well, for those of you who actually believe IN GOOD...I explained my TRAINING THEORY and NUTRITION PROTOCOLS....on my "Secrets of the pros" DVD...

I've seen your parts on the Fitshow and I can't remember you going into great detail about your training theory, at least not when it comes to reps, sets, whether to go to failure etc. maybe I've missed a couple of episodes? For the most time you showed slow movements, but then again - you also said explosive movements were good to so it's hard to draw any conclusions other than anything goes.

Yes I did. But what is it that makes one stop? Is it because he's beat because of no more strength or no more endurance? You said yourself that you are performing better than one of your training partners, even though he is stronger than you because you're USED to that type of training. So when he's trying to keep up, he'll stop because he get winded - not necessarily because his muscles are done.
And if his muscles aint done, he hasn't worked them 100% - he has worked his cardiovascular system 100% hasn't he?

But intensity is so many things. 5x5 squats can be intense. so can 10x10 or just 1 set of 20 reps breathing squats. but if someone doesnt have the condition to do 20 reps of squats he will stop before the muscles will.

whether you can do more reps or more weight than me doesnt prove anything. thats like someone criticizing dorian yates methods and all he says is "well i lift more than you" thats not much of an argument is it?

I have no interest in who can keep up with whom during workouts. However, Milos agrees that information should be shared. Now, he posted that his version of what the pros take re drugs is a lot less than what gh15 claimed. My point is any drugs should be unnecessary for hypertrophy. What I would like to know here is if the giant set protocol works on natural bodybuilders? I have my doubts. Using drugs contaminates training theories. Milos also said that the body often doesn't produce optimal amounts of hormones needed for growth. Surely that is not a justification to supplement those hormones?

While I am all for rapid growth I do not endorse taking additional hormones. If hormone supplementation is part of optimal hypertrophy, according to Milos, then I won't debate hypertrophy training with him.

The bottom line is, is that everything works................... ......Arnold didn't do Milo's worout, but he still won with what he did. Same for Dorian, Haney, Zane, Coleman, Cutler, even NPC competiters.........so this isn't the "only", or even the best way to train.........it is simply another theory, that works. Now, if all of Milos' guys start winning every show, then he may be on to something, but as it stands, it is probably no more scientific, and no more of a  "new training breakthrough", than what you, yourself is doing right now. Truth.

I trained with the Mentzers and now I've trained with Milos (if only 1 workout) and there are few, if any commonalities in thier routines. Milos is high volume-high intensity and Mikes was low-volume high intensity.

Learning HIT directly from training with Mike and ray was WAY more valuable than reading about in a magazine or a book. For everyone that opportunity is gone since Mike and Ray are gone.

You now have an opportunity to learn directly from Milos a completely different concept. He’s offering it openly and I’ve heard every excuse in the book… well I’d have to fly, well I don’t think it will work, well my shoes are to tight, well the sun is in my eyes… jeez I could get drunk on all the whining.

Get on a plane and fly out and train with the man, go home and use his methods for two months. If it doesn’t work for you… so what? You gave it a shot and you can go back to your old training methods. If it does work, you save yourself years of frustration.

That's a good question, since a lot of volume, high intensity, little rest, always going to failure etc would work for pros with their genetics and people on drugs, however, for a natural, and amateurs with genetics nothing like the pros it might be a totally different story...

Actually by not shutting up and keep on discussing and asking questions is the way to learn, where as you just buy anything just because a pro says it. You're the dumb one.

As for legs, that's one of my stronger body parts, I currently train them two times a week (not counting MMA training and hill sprints)

Since the weight being used isn't the same for everyone, but individual, it all comes down to cardio - not strength. That means any sprinter, marathon runner etc won't have a problem keeping up - and beating you.

Their cardio is superior.

I think it's great that Milos give people the chance to train with him, anyone in his area would be a fool not to accept. However - I think it's silly when it's used as some macho bullshit to show how big, strong and tough he is - that he will triple the weight for each excercise etc.

That's just a variation of the good 'ol "oh yeah come to the cage and I'll fight you big mouth!"

Also it looks like Milos is getting a cult following here, anyone questioning anything he says and they snap. I hope Milos isn't religious or garraeth might move into some compound before we know it.  :-\

I believe that a "nattie" who is on diet and train that way may shrink his muscles in record time.

But to bring the (steroid)hormomes to the receptors it will work excellent. I doubt that "his pros" get there general musclemass by this way of training. I believe they all build there muscles the same way (progressive overload over a long decade...+ food, nutrition, genetics, med.). To get in shape & and show the striations this "pure feel" training will work. But i don`t believe that it will work for years in a row....

  yeah.. i woukld like milos to explain the physiology behind it.. not the point that it is painful and will put ya on your knees.. pain does not equate hypertrophy. that is why i am interested in hearing the reason why it works.. not that it is the most "painful" workout you will do.. not saying that it wont work.. just want more information..

Answer me this though, 'garraeth', do you really think this kind of traing works for natruals? How many natruals train this way with Milos? If so what were the results?

It worked for me.



Aside: everyone is kinda everywhere. There's nothing Milos can do right. If he's training pros, he's juicing them with mad amounts like GH15 suggests. If he's training naturals, he's burning them out.

Think about it for one second...why does he keep getting repeat clients and tons of new referrals (naturals and pros -- you just don't hear about the naturals, but I SEE them)? Cuz he's killing pros and burning naturals out? Obviously not.

The lack of brainpower on this board is really surprising sometimes (not you UK Gold, I've read your posts and they are intelligent). And/or the desire to troll rather than learn shows some scary insite into who you really are...

...I gotta get back to work. I'll be training with the #1 bodybuilding trainer in the world in about 3 hours, so have to get some programming done...

it worked for you? what you accomplished so far besides losing weight?

have you got stronger in the big 3 lifts? if so how much stronger in what time period?

are your arms bigger, or cant you tell because you used synthol?

are you even a natural or "clean" at the moment?

Since the weight being used isn't the same for everyone, but individual, it all comes down to cardio - not strength. That means any sprinter, marathon runner etc won't have a problem keeping up - and beating you.

Their cardio is superior.


Not real bright are you?? Aside from being wrong about "it all comes down to cardio"........you can't compare a sprinter to a marathon runner. After you learn energy systems 101, then maybe you can come back speak with a little intelligence.

Luke what else did Milos show you in his office besides his massive legs? Did you get a chance to try some of Milos shake? I heard it's really popular. Good stuff


SGT. D

Absolutely 100% Sarge!! I did try the new KNS supplements that Milos himself formulated!!! The most ADVANCED AMINO ACID supplements ever put together!!!  I have been using the AMINO PRELOAD 45 mins before every workout and the AMINO XXPLOAD during training.

Im sure this was the answer you were look for right Sarge??

im not comparing them, im saying theyre generally have good condition.

are you saying it doesnt matter how good your cardio is for this type of training? even milos admit it is.

so what exactly is it that i say that you disagree with? let me hear it!

No, that's not what I'm saying, but you seem to be talking along the lines that you have to have the conditioning of a sprinter or marathon runner to do this program. Remember, he's going giant sets (there really not giant sets, it's circuit training) with the SAME bodypart not the entire body.

I run my clients and athletes throught power circuits ALL THE TIME especially in season athletes, the difference is I run my circuits with the entire body. When I get back, I'll give an example.

no thats not what im saying.

what im reacting to is the macho bullshit that you need to be a big ape to hang with this kinda training when in reality the better shape you are condition wise the easier it is since you'll be outta breath before your muscle is fried.

the weight youre lifting is individual. so there's no strength challenge there - you're not going for any new PR's. so the intensity added to the concept is the little rest. and of course youll get tired faster if there's little or no rest, thats why we DO REST between sets so we can lift more. duh!

No one should be getting mad at Bluto because he's asking questions. Like he said that's how you learn, or in some cases prove yourself right.

Anyway, most intelligent BB'ers realize that the key to getting bigger is by progressively getting stronger with good form, hitting a muscle frequently as possible while stimulating maximum growth, adequate rest and nutrition.

Now with Milos training I don't see how you can hit a muscle more than once a week, in some cases even longer. That is low frequency, so it goes against one key point of getting bigger.

By doing all that volume and giant setting, super slow, squeezing, etc. will slow down strength progression. Another key point not followed.

I do see some benefit to Milos training though. It will get you in great cardiovascular shape and boost your metabolism which is good for losing weight.

Bluto i could not hang with Milos either now natural or chemically enhanced 3 or so years ago i like my methodical training,Arnolds Encylopedia of Bodybuilding is my Bible training 6 days a week, with nice long rest periods in between sets.
Every one has there style, im sure if i did more cardio took no rest between sets and pratically burned myself out i could hang with some of Milos natural students but not the Man himself.
Milos style remindes me of what Sergio Oliva went through with Arthur Jones i am suprised nobody has brought this up.Sergio looked the best he ever did in the 72 MrO with some white guy beating him ive forgot his name.

Heres the sergio routine notice the use of heavier weights!

This is a recount from 1971, an excerpt/paraphrasing from Ellington Darden's book, "New High-Intensity Bodybuilding," a MUST HAVE book. Anyways, he visited Sergio and Jones in August of '71 and watched him train legs. At the time, Jones had been training him for only 3-4 weeks at the time. What's interesting is the Darden had never really noticed Sergio's thighs before until one day in August. He exclaimed to Sergio that his thighs were enormous. Sergio replied, "Yeah, they've really improved since I've been doing Jone's hihg-intensity thigh routine...Come see for yourself [the routine] on Friday morning."

That Friday, they went to Deland High School, which Darden says is the only place Jones trained people at in those days.

"Okay, Sergio, let's begin with legs, " said Jones in a commanding voice.

Sergio had been personally trained by Jones for several weeks, and he knew what to expect. He walked around nervously looking at the floor and slowly shaking each leg.

"Let's go Sergio," said Jones, "Into the leg press. Get the weight set."

Two large football players put 480 pounds on the leg press machine and adjusted the seat.

"Twenty reps, I want twenty reps," Jones said to Sergio.

At seventeen reps, Sergio looked whipped.

"Rest a few seconds in lockout and you'll be able to get three more reps, " Jones said.

Sergio quickly took five short breaths and squeezed out three more reps.

Arthur nodded to the football players who literally picked up Oliva from the leg press and immeadiately helped him to the leg extension machine. The weight was set up at 200 pounds, and the goal again was 20 reps. By the tenth rep, Sergio was in obvious pain. Somehow with Jones hurling insults about his manhood, Oliva managed another seven or eight repetitions.

Once again Jones nodded to the football players and they pried Sergio from the machine and hurried him across the room to the squat racks. The bar was already loaded with 420 pounds.

Three weeks earlier, Arthur noted, Sergio had performed a similar routine but with less weight and was unable to perform a single repetition in the squat with 400 pounds. "He'll do 420 today and for at least a dozen reps," Jones confidently predicted.

With 420 pounds on his back, Oliva stepped back from the squat racks and began grinding out the repetitions. The first three reps were extremeley hard. In fact I [Darden] didn't think he was going to make the second rep. SOmehow he did. Repetitions four through ten seemed a bit easier than the initial ones. He seemed to get into a sort of groove, even though he was breathing and sweating like a steam engine. Repetition eleven went slow, and repetition twelve was very slow. True to Jones predicition, Sergio failed on the thirteenth rep.

"Take the big plates off," Jones said to the spotters as they helped Oliva back to the rack. "Okay Sergio, any champion bodybuilder ought to be able to squat with 300 pounds."

(Sergio did not look pleased)

Sergio, however, responded as Jones hoped he would. He shouldred the barbell, backed up and performed six perfect full squats with 300 pounds. He then returned it to the racks and promptly collapsed on the floor... "Arthur, he looks dead to me," I said.

Just then I noticed Sergio's left eye open. When he saw me looking at him, he smiled. "Arthur wouldn't let me die - at least not until I've finished the workout."

I bet you would pay me to have you use the pink dumbbells for the workout, and yes I'll make you throw up at the end of the set with that too


u obviously never came close to feeling what a workout of that intensity feels like.

Discuss

Ronnie is trying to sell DVD's Milos is trying to increase his reputation as a trainer. They are two very different goals. Neither has the primary goal of increasing muscle mass whilest shooting a video.
