John Heart: Training With Mike Mentzer (17 Minute HEAVY DUTY Workouts 2x Per Week!)

[@johnking5759]

The pullover is to fatigue the lats before going directly to a close grip pulldown or chin-up, allowing the biceps to assist in the movement and do more reps - By working the biceps and going directly to a lat pulldown/chin-up, the biceps are going to prevent the lats going to failure, what is the purpose or benefit of doing this?

[@RoseAesthetics]

Real talk bro. He’s doing a pre exhaust method(which you know), I’ll guess the stretch of the pull-overs, makes it easier to do Pulldowns mainly for your biceps. Mike did say that underhand pulldowns are the best bicep exercise(not me lol) I do Incline bench, Pullovers and then Biceps curls as a superset. That is perfect bc they work synergistically while resting.

John is a top guy & a great trainer !

[@matthewcarbone2108]

Can't wait for the whole interview!

[@roadstar499]

On leg day like doing hamstrings first,then doing leg extensions alternated with lying leg press..works fantastic for me...

[@stevesorensen9648]

Always look forward to hearing John speak. He's a no nonsense guy. Just finished his book Physique 101. I highly recommend the book if you're looking for productive and efficient training.

[@Rob-qn6od]

Nope.

[@poofypoopy8838]

​@Rob-qn6od why are you even watching these videos. All of your comments are against HIT. Go and do you your high volume and just leave it alone.

[@dm8127]

Great interview. Regarding Mike's routine as described: why would you pre fatigue biceps (the weak link) before pulldowns/pullups, etc? Isn't this *problem* of arms being too weak for maximum back stimultion the reason for Nautilus pullover machine?

[@sumantsingh3981]

Thats for training arms specifically on arms and shoulders day

[@johnnickless2529]

There is gold here. Ty

[@Junglebtc]

Can you please enable the YT Transcription your channel ? Its not working 😕

[@longevitymuscle]

Thanks for comment. We will look into it!

[@Junglebtc]

​@@longevitymuscleThank you

[@loulopez554]

John is awesome good interview.

[@Ferbocarbo]

So John is saying the HD plan actually has a chin up set right after the bicep curls in workout 3? Before the tricep set?

[@farukm7627]

What about training weak forearms?

[@genovasquez8361]

Wrist rollers are great

[@chrishantulik100]

WOW John…You Didn’t Let the Guy get a Word IN lol (Love You John x)

[@outdoorsman9384]

I would like too see you get Kevin Richardson on your show💪

[@roadstar499]

I actually use his split...i did add an extra day per week though...i am feeling amazing...

[@coachdj955]

Kevin has been interviewed on this channel already actually and is into high intensity as well! Great guy and he has valuable knowledge. He also has a youtube channel 👌🏻

[@outdoorsman9384]

@@roadstar499 how long, and any gains?

[@Traps510]

​@roadstar499 you only workout for 10-15 minutes? Each bodypart once a week? I wish Kevin Richardson would give an example of his training

[@codystene3022]

I wish mentzer was still alive, such a cool guy

[@JasminMusic1602]

For me this Mentzer workout work best Workout 1 (Monday) Legs Chest Triceps Workout 2 (Wednesday) Back Traps Shoulders Biceps Workout 1 (Friday)

[@johnbrownlee4565]

Hitting each muscle a bit more frequently like you specified worked for me best in my youth. About every 4 to 6 weeks took a week off. Don’t be afraid to take an extra day off from the written plan when life throws high stress problems at you (job or relationship etc).

[@chrishantulik100]

WOW John…..You Didn’t Let the Guy get a Word IN lol (Love you John)

[@jaaaayy]

Imagine speaking ill of the dead? Below low.

[@steveharper879]

I must've missed it. No clue what you're talking about Do you mean mentioning that he had psychosis/mental health problems for awhile? He didn't say it in any disrespectful way he's just narrating the timeline with relevant information. It's very obvious they move love and respect Mike

[@kieranmurraysnaturalstreng5913]

NAH! Mentzer? JUICED!😂😂

[@huhwhatomg]

I don't think John really knew Mike. He's offered zero proof

[@ResearchReviewer]

That’s not how Dorian did it 😋😂

[@djpickleballplayer]

I’m 46. I like the philosophies of HIT. But I’m not going to try doing it again.

[@Rob-qn6od]

It doesn't work.

[@Rob-qn6od]

You cannot build a good body at full potential with 2 x17 minute workouts a week. Hit is nothing but a myth.

[@aarongoodman6167]

If you learn how to train intensely to failure, it works. I didn’t believe it until I tried it.

[@Rob-qn6od]
