Whats up with this? Anyone tried it. Whats the hook. "You can Achieve Your Muscular Potential In one Year". Read the article in September 99 - Ironman but, its just a big sale pitch. I don't belive there is a short cut, not even the juice - still gotta bust your ass. I just thought the guy was pretty credible and was not want to throw my money away on more of the same B.S. The way I figure it is B.B. is pretty well tapped. Shit we have had over 30 years of exprienced pro's doing everything. I can't believe that there is some new style or form that could be that great - or produce that much better result. Hell maybe i'm wrong. Just looking for a little info one this. Anyone who has tried or bought would love to hear about it. IP: Logged |

I've done some of Mentzers "Heavy Duty" which basically means 1 set to failure (more or less). I think it is a good training method to mix it up but not the end all he claims. His "one way to train" is total BS. Mixed in once every few months it's OK but then get some new routine. He claims in his Heavy duty book that people can attain their peak in one year--that is total crap. Or to put it plainly there is no fucking way. If I were to reccomend books for training it would be Charles Polquins books ("Polquin principles" or "Manly weight loss"--if thats your goal) that guy knows what he's talking about. He writes some stuff on testosterone's online mag--search their archives and you can probably get some good info by him. That one year to your potential is no more true than "An Atlas Body in 7 days" [This message has been edited by snapdragon (edited April 18, 2000).] IP: Logged |
Even with juice this is not the case. Even his so called boy Yates took longer than a year and you know he was using gear, great nutrition/supps and that was his job.All times are ET (US) | |
