[QUOTE="Will Brink, post: 66048, member: 2074"] No, did not say that. Correct balance of volume and intensity is what builds muscle and that will vary depending on variables such as experience level of the person. Etc. I am saying, HIT as Jones and Mentzer pushed it is inferior approach. You're either playing semantic games here or not paying close attention. Dorian trained at lower volumes and higher intensities than many that time, and it lead to career ending injuries. He did not at any time follow Mentzer/Jones HIT training. Having sat across him at dinner etc a number of times, I assure you, I'm well familiar with that. Again, semantics. Jay trains at high volumes, much higher than and Mentzer style HIT. Known Jat since he was 16 or so, and I assure, know he trains. He trains like most successful bbers, and given genetics, etc, can get away with it where as most can't. Dan was a close friend of mine, and speaking of Flex, high volume, good drugs, crazy genetics. Using genetic freaks as an example of any way to train, be it higher volumes, HIT, etc is a waste of time. Just FYI, Dan thought Mentzer was an idiot. Again, hard training, using specific loading, program design, etc are the foundations of the above, vs any Mentzer HIT nonsense. Because Dorain was a "hard trainer" has no bearing on if he did Mentzer style HIT. He didn't. That this is even a topic in 2017 is amazing. If that's how you want to train and or train your clients that's up to you, but it's far from optimal and not supported by modern strength training science and people here should be aware of that. I'm not going to use additional time going through each meta and explain all that. I'm done with the thread. Others can follow that advice or not. Good luck. :) [/QUOTE]
