OK , normally id just sit back and watch the debate about which training style is better High Intensity or high volume and it seems to go on forever. So heres my 2 cents
Mike mentzer the sort of forefather of Hit along with arthur jones trained with one exercise and one set per exercise... Is this one exercise enough? where not talking about is one set enough yet, but one exercise. I dont think one exercise per body part is enough to get the size and the shape, you need to work the muscle group from different angles.. Thats where dorian comes in..
Dorian yates trained with a modified version of mentzers HIT... Dorian believed the same thing I do, and that is that the muscle group has to be worked from different angles. With that said dorian would do 2-3 exercises per body part, not just one like mentzer... Next, dorian did one main set per exercise not just one set... Ill give an example,, decline bench press: first set 30-35% of his final set, second set 50-55% of his final set, 3rd set 70-75% of his final set and fourth set 100%..... This type of training does work if it is done right... If you cannot for some reason push the final set to failure and beyond than your right its not going to work for you... But when done correctly it will.. Now I know alot of high volume trainers are saying that it was the steriods that made dorian big not the training method, Well f#%$ then why dont all you high volume trainers just take roids and win the Olympia Im sure you could make it and shatter dorians little six times winning... When you accomplish this let me know...
Next we have the arnold issue... Oh Im sure arnold didnt take steriods hes a well respect person in the movie business, bullsh#$..The only reason arnold got as big as he did was because of the steriods other wise he'd be way overtrained... The people who follow high volume believe that if one tylenol works than 12 would be better right. Now there are some cases in life where more is better like with sex more is always better, but when it comes to training I dont think so...
My last point goes to those people who really think it HIt dorian style not mentzer style doesnt work without steriods... Try it I promise that if you do it right it will work...
