Here’s a classic shot of Joe Weider chatting with Mike Mentzer about the pros and cons of handlebar mustaches and whether “Free Mustache Rides” works as a T-shirt slogan. (It doesn’t.)
We feature Mike here in Zen often because even by today’s standards, his physique was massively Herculean…
Here’s one of our favorite shots of Mr. Heavy Duty that showcases his jaw-dropping mass (photo by John Balik)…
Great genetics? Absolutely, but he beefed up those genes with science-based training. For example, when he was training for the ’80 Mr. Olympia, he used a modified Pre-Ex method, around three total sets per muscle. Really….
There’s a discussion of him and a complete Mentzer-inspired pre-ex STX workout in OMYM, Chapter 9, page 68.
Like Mentzer, we strive for precise, efficient hypertrophy stimulation. It’s why our workouts are only 35-minutes three days a week, alternating upper-body and lower-body sessions…
Till next time, train hard—and smart—for BIG results.
