After watching Jay's workout I feel like I worked out just watching it. In four days I'll watch it again to get another workout.
lol
This is too good 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
You my friend, have solved Mike Mentzer's theory of doing 0 sets to failure!!!!
Lollll 😂😂
I won the Natural 2008 Bay Area and placed 3rd in the natural USA that led me to compete in the 2008 Natural Olympia. I was fortunate to have trained with Mike Mentzer years ago and continued consultations for years with him. Less is best. All out intensity controlled monentum and saving your joints
Amen!
Great, thank you!!!
In1979 I joined a i
😊 nautilus gym in NJ
Best result using Metzgers Hit workouts
Got real strong for wresting
At 60 and after many different routines and researching
This type of training
works best for me.
It did then
and it does now.
Thanks.
Everyone is different but for me
I needed the recovery and intense failure 🙏
Jay just gave away all his secrets . Amazing how theres countless youtube fitness videos , yet the information in this short 12 minute video is all you need .
I don't know about having it all... I can't finish my workout from him in less than 22 minutes; but these are staple exercises.
"I forgot that I'm a beast for a second". Superbly said! That's inspiring man!
So nice to see another HIT dude. I’ve been training like this since the early 90’s. Been a long time follower of Arthur Jones & Ellington Darden. Like some of the high intensity techniques of Mike Mentzer as well. One set to total failure, occasionally adding rest pause, drop set, or finish the last rep with a heavy negative. Maximum stimulation with maximum recovery!
Outstanding brother !
Which High Intensity books or articles you recommend the most? I have no idea where to start.
@@gilbertomartinez155try heavy duty by Mike mentzer, or watch his basis of HIT workout in CZcams. His workout is getting it's fame nowadays in yt.
So the rule is; do the same workout again, only after 3-5 days. So that's 1 to 2x a week?
@@SouEuMesmoAqui Mentzer recommended 4-7 days between workouts (not body parts) which would have you hitting the same muscle directly every 12+ plus days.
@@gilbertomartinez155The New High Intensity by Dr. Darden.
When training like this, I always hear Jays voice in my head telling me to ‘keep contracting ‘ 🤣🤣
So do I ahahahah
How long do you rest between each different exercise?
@@PapeySapote not too long. You should be moving relatively quickly between each exercise.
@@PapeySapote you don't
JAY YOU KILLED THIS VIDEO BRO. The editing is sick! Best video you’ve made by far. 🔥
I sort of stumbled on this on my own not having enough time to work out, yet I also was still kind of rushing through 3 sets old school. Can't wait to try it now will a clearer vision.
A lot of what Jay says rings true. The importance of slow and controlled reps and working to failure makes a lot sense. Also I like how he places the emphasize on diet for fat loss and generally states that nothing happens over night. When you think about it long term if you shelve your work out yourre gonna decondition and if you need to maintain a process you can't over train. Great stuff👍
Fantastic, short, too the point video…..I will always watch your content because of that
Literally just finished a high intensity leg session after your videos reignited my interest in HIT. Mother of God that was something else. I've been training for over 20 years (all natural) and tried the usual variations of bro split, PPL, upper/ lower split, 5x5, starting strength, beyond brawn and so on and always seemed to hit a wall in both size and strength quite rapidly. Now I'm in my early 40's it's really dawned on me how easy it is to overtrain and not fully recover between workouts, especially ones with too much volume, plus I get adrenal fatigue and feel lousy. I read Mentzers book years ago and applied it to upper body for a while but had a training partner at the time who wasn't game, so we didn't follow it for long. :(
Upper body HIT workouts are brutal enough but you've really gotta be psyched up for legs as the lactic acid and the shaking knees etc are off the charts. I practically couldn't stand when I was done. LOVED it.
Also started reading Body by Science by Doug McGuff after your suggestions. Again excellent and very logical for the non pharmaceutically assisted lifter.
So you’re training Upper/Lower once every 7 day’s?
You're right about the legs. They're a very large muscle group, so they do shake and ache after lifting hard to failure. You're not alone my friend. Use ice packs if it gets real bad, I do everyday on my lumbar/buttocks and it helps. Keep it up, we'll look like Mentzer in no time!
I love High Intensity Training workouts because they give me zero excuse. The workouts are so short that the only thing limiting me is my mindset. I will almost always have half an hour two to four times a week to workout like this. Also correct me if I'm wrong but it also creates more efficient muscle mass by training the body to recruit a higher percentage of your muscle fibers, which is how Bruce Lee could be so small but so powerful. Scale that effect up to someone who isn't avoiding hypertrophy (because agility and weightclass aren't as much of a concern) and you get real freaking strong.
Great video Jay. Keep putting the word out. I'm tired of arguing with people about it. Made my best gains training one set to failure.
Man I feel like an idiot all these yrs and I've never tried it cause, well I thought it just can't b right but after seeing this and feeling beat up, I'm ready!! Taking 3 wks off to heal first.
I'm doing a similar program, but since I'm blessed to have an old school Nautilus gym, I'm substituting 40° CHEST and rowing torso for incline press and row and doing torso-arm and decline press for curls and pushdowns.
Jay love what you are doing in this space. Salute brother.
Found ur chanel recently av to say for me as 60 year old and trained for years and tryed many styles of training this is brilliant i av plenty muscle mass but this type of training is for me always trained to failure for years but now realized been overtraining for years doing ur method i avnt lost any size or strengh i can train like this for years to come without beating myself into ground and still get results ur philosophy is so true wished i found this years ago i think wud be even bigger and stronger but ill keep going now in this style for rest of my days everything u teach is so right love ur vidios intensity is key not time in gym not sets and reps more peaple are brainwashed with bro science i see it all the time in gym obsessed with numbers but numbers are for accountants thanks for everything now i can train till old man and still make gains
Couldn't agree with you more bro! My workouts are half as long as they used to be, and I'm bigger then I've ever been. It's awesome!
Been doing this for over a year now, have not lost any size. 👍
@@timothyvonvictory7105 what’s your split look like?
@@ShepherdMinistry I do a push pull upper, wait 3 to five days and do lower body.
this is also a great system of training to stick with training for years, i always trained then quit for a while, but with this Hit system i been training now 7 years straight, and love it
Now the volume has returned. Thanks.
Great video Jay 🔥
Awesome video Jay!
Fantastic! HIT approach is a game changer !
Thanks 🙏 Jay!
100% agree with everything Jay said.period.
Just started this workout yesterday. Aiming for mon/wed/Fri workout days. Added a couple of leg movements to make it total body. Holy hell I felt it!! This workout is intense! Time to grow!
Yeah I just switched to this and I prefer the 3 day a week plan, 2 days in a week would make me feel like I’m wasting money
Consider 1 or 2 extra rest days when you don't feel fully recovered. You'll see more results and avoid overtraning or feel fatigued during the rest days. You want to feel good, all of the time. Except when you shred those weights in the gym ;)
suggestion, 1 workout every 5 days, 3 times is to much , not enough rest time
Great video quality this time around 👍🏼
Great video!
Loved this workout! Thanks. I swear my muscles will grow just from watching. It got my heart rate up at least!
Me entrené una sola vez de esta manera. Han pasado 30 años y todavía me acuerdo de cuanto fue brutal.
😂
Well done.
Haha😂 great stuff! for an older guy, such as myself, 63, who trained most of my younger years and on and off the last 30 years. I’m seeing the enormous value of HIT. It gives my muscles enough time to recover and see muscle growth at my age👍🏻 Good diet and hi protein a must😊
Hi from spain. Very good training.
Thank you very helpful
I'll try incorporating this into my boxing regimen this high intensity is just what I've been looking for
videos like this is why youtube is so great
Incredible my progress ☺️ is evident using this advice training slow with machine and doing one set .
Been doing it for 3months and it beats all the things I tried this past 10years..
Thank you Jay
Hey bro can you give a programm and help i in over training 😢
@@ahmedmido-pb8fi look for mike mentzer
How long do you rest between sets sir?
@@ahmedmido-pb8fi Goldenerasystem
@@TallBaldGenius89 Not much less than one minute just set up and go on the machine
Thanks for the easy to follow instructional video. What's the reasoning for only doing the drop set for your arm exercises?
Can't wait to do this exact workout 💪, let's see what happens, I'll give it 100% effort and 🙏
How’s it been?
Literally just did my first proper upper body workout in this style
Set 1 and 2 warmup sets going up to 75% of my working weight then set 3 all out giving no shits around 8 secs per rep , obviously too early to speak about results but I knew I just had a hell of a workout 💪🏴
How is it going now?
I just tried this workout today, and it was much harder than I thought it would be. I tried to basically do it thinking "if I was being mugged at gunpoint and the only way to stay alive would be to do one more rep", and I kept doing it until I wouldn't have a choice, I eventually failed of course. It is a challenging workout for sure. It has been 30 minutes since I finished and I can still feel little twitches in my chest and triceps, shoulders, and even forearms. Obviously your comment was from a few months, have you kept it up? What do you think? Any changes or adjustments you've made? Progress? Injury free?
@@joey_m305 hey bro can you give me a programm and help me. Am in over training 😢😢😢
The quality is excellent
Man jay,if u think ur going to failure u got a lot to learn
It would be interesting to see how he would
Do on a running test.
Great work!!!
This exact workout will make you good at every sport in the world.
Awesome workout
Everyone is different but for me I just started doing this about two weeks ago and it's really easy to go until failure cause it's only one set than having to do more sets I do feel the difference and I have been told that too, you work your body more hard too but like he said until failure with perfect form not swinging that makes the difference
Hey bro can you give me a programm and help me. I in over training
The fact that u said it's easy shows you have no idea what your doing😅
Looking amazing as always!!!
I'm 61.5 years old and starting week 3 of HIT. First week was mostly test week to find the exercises for me. Week 2 was in which order and what my preference is. I'm loving it and getting bigger and stronger already.
Is the program a upper/lower or full body?
@@steelphantom9105 upper lower; but I'm doing 4 upper days and two lower days. Lots of upper imbalances and injuries so trying to work on that. But starting in a couple of weeks I'll be going back to 3 upper and 3 lower days.
How should you rest between exercises sir?
Isn’t HIT a low training frequency routine?
@@TallBaldGenius89 I fluctuate between 60 seconds and 2 minutes. Depends how I feel
The equipment at that gym looks awesome!
My great friend Rich Putnick in the St. Louis area taught me about H.I.T. in 2003 in college. Rich has been using HIT now for 30 years and I consider him a world class trainer. Why wouldn't I do an exercise routine that allows me to lower my weight, thus not injuring my joints, allows me to keep proper form throughout the rep, and exhausts more muscle fibers using time under tension, thus creating more growth... AND YOU CAN WORK OUT LESS FREQUENTLY! That's a win win win win in my book.
great workout
Delayed onset muscle soreness typically lasts between 3-5 days when you first start training so isn't that a good indicator that the muscles aren't fully recovered for the amount of days doms lasts to a particular person right? Good knowledge jay honestly my number 1 go to coach I've just started personal training and this is the path I'm heading down for sure
Love this workout.. my only problem is: we don't have these kind of machines.. so we gotta improvise with dumbells..
i been doing this style of training for 6-7 years now, ill never go back to hours of endless sets every 2-3 days. Add in Carnivore diet and fasting, and you have solved one part of lifes mysteries
Is once a week enough?
Fasting absolutely!
@@notcool3818yes. Go by how you feel.
yes! carnivore is the finishing touch
THIS. Plus having someone these to help you with 2-3 assist reps and or negatives after you've failed feels like I get the best results. Very challenging to truly push myself to total failure alone. Especially on Dumbell presses. Machines it's a little easier.
Can you explain the drop sets for the arms portion and why you did drop sets there vs the others?
He explains in some videos that most people cannot go to true failure when they first start. It’s like a skill that takes time to mentally develop. I’ve even heard of hit guys doing mental exercises to help push their ability to go to failure.
So for beginners you can do drop sets, assorted sets, myo reps, etc…
Since you have a hard time really going to true failure in the beginning.
As far as him doing drop sets. Looks like he was hitting some sticking points, maybe having trouble actually going to failure without the weight pinning him. Since even the best machines don’t have a perfect resistance curve. So he did a drop set to really push to true muscular failure.
I do that too sometimes. If I feel like I failed without spending a solid amount of time really grinding hard Af and getting a sick pump.
I believe he picks one exercise per workout to do a drop set. It looks like he picked biceps in this video because it seemed like he died out quicker than he wanted to on that set so he dropped the weight two more times to really go to complete failure. If you do a drop set just make sure you only do it for 1 exercise per workout or you may overtrain.
I’ve been doing rest/pause + drop sets to go beyond failure. Getting stronger each and every workout plus it’s fun
Drop-Set Rest-Pause
This approach, which has been successfully used by many bodybuilders, is probably the most demanding of the rest-pause variations. It combines rest-pauses and drop sets. You lower the weight when you hit failure to continue on with the set.
Think of each set as having two rest-pause episodes. The second episode being lighter than the first bout of rest-pauses. This type of rest-pause allows you to place far more demands on each muscle fiber, leading to more growth stimulation. As you might imagine, it’s also very demanding and nobody should need more than two such sets per exercise. In many cases, one will be enough.
Each set is made up of four mini-sets: two rest-pause episodes of two mini-sets each. The pauses between all the mini-sets - including the drop - are 10 seconds long.
Start with a weight where you think you’ll hit muscle contractile failure at around 8-10 reps. Work until you know that getting one more rep would be an absolute impossibility. Rest for 10 seconds keeping the same weight and resume the set, once again going to muscle contractile failure.
Rest another 10 seconds while you decrease the weight by roughly 20% and continue the set, reaching failure with the new lower weight. Rest for a final 10 seconds and perform one last mini-set, going to failure.
Great video,I'm on my 2nd week of this,hard to get used to but the pump is unreal,and muscles are done in next day
How is the workouts going, are you growing?
I’ve been utilising this methodology for a month and already I can not believe the increase in muscularity and size I’m achieving.
How many times a week do you do this?
Whats your workout routine look like?
2x a week. I do a spilt routine between upper and lower body. My routine pretty much looks like this, with rare tweaks depending on equipment, and how I’m feeling.
I'm doing this in my work out intensity workout for me now
After watching this, I realized I'm doing exactly the right thing and sometimes I even take it to higher intensity
Good! Is a lower body workout coming too?
Regards
High Intensity Training has relieved the pain of my chronic elbow tendinitis and my shoulder arthritis. You CAN train through injuries and come back stronger
Struggling with elbow tendonitis now. Did you implement Jay's protocol of one lower body and one upper body session with 3-4days break between?
@@JamesFeey I’ve been doing a full-body workout every 3-4 days. The tempo is 5 seconds lifting, 5 seconds lowering; I use a metronome app. The slow tempo really helped me recover
Was it due to the slower rep cadence?
HIT has been the game changer in terms of results for me . I can't imagine going back to doing pointless reps and sets
Just started hit about two months ago. Been going to the gym for 3 years averaging 3.5 sessions per week. I noticed every time I was sick or just to busy working and for whatever reason missed a week or two I would have massive gains and increase of strength. How is that possible? I always thought I need to go MORE i need to increase volume MORE. I have grown about 3x faster in the two months doing HIT than the last 3 years! I started thinking and looking around the gym....You know those handful of people you see literally every time you go to the gym? I figure they have to be going even more than you if you see them every time you go right? Well none of them are big. They are all toned well and probably in great shape. The jacked dudes I see are once in a blue moon these freaks come out and crush it lol! Its true HIT is for real I love it! I dont see a huge wall with it bc you can only hold max weight for so long right? Even if you have to hold all the plates in slow reps for 2 mins you will always hit failure and thats the point. I now do every 72 hours sometimes a 100 or 5 days if im real stressed so I stick to 2x a week sometimes even still faintly sore at 4 days. Great video man that will help a bunch of people out. New subscriber here bro!

@@ahmedmido-pb8fi how often do you go and are you working same muscle group back to back?

Day3 leg
Rest
Day4 .3 exercices shorder 4 exercices for armes
Day 5: 3 exercices chest 3exercices back
Rest all sets to failure
@@ahmedmido-pb8fi . Dont see anything wrong with that I dont like doing anything back to back or even going to the gym back to back. Even though your doing arms one day then chest the next you gotta figure your still using some of those muscles overlap just with stabilization. If you were worried about not getting enough with 2 to 2.5 days then try 3 and just smash the hell outta them. Id do just for instance monday wed fri and get you 72 hours rest by taking sat sun completely off. Try to focus on heavier weight each time with a little less volume. I bet if you didnt change anything but just dropped 1/3 of the total sets but did them way slower you would be significantly and suprisingly more sore the next day which is good. I think the genius of metzer and hit in general was getting the adequate rest. Its hard to do bc we get used to our gains and figure more time off from gym that cant do anything but fuck up my training. Im a believer bc I cant explain the times i took off a week bc of work vacation etc and came back able to do more weight its a mindfuck. Id try it mane. Get a day atleast between everything and every now and then take 48-72 hours off. Just make sure your work is quality and that should make up for it! Cheers
Make another video on your legs and did u not get your anterior delts on purpose? But ya hit us with another. Your inspiring me cause I've been wanting to do H.I.T. but am not sure but wut u just showed me wow! I can't wait to hit H.I.T. on this coming monday!!!
I'm definitely gonna try this method. I bet I'll break through plateau in my physique by doing this
Hey bro can you give a programm and help me. Am in over training😢😢
Well did you ?
Hey this is awesome, love this style. Question: do you keep a detailed training log with all of your numbers for lifts? And are you aiming to make progress on every workout? And what if you don't? Or is it just the failure focus that's key.
For example, say your incline press was the plate+quarter for 8 reps, what if you do that 2 or 3 weeks in a row, and can't get to 9 reps? Is that still fine, or would you change something up? Thanks.
Keeping a journal is the key to progressive overload training... especially with this type of trainin. You need to know what your weight is that allows you to the proper amount of HIT reps. Then as you progress every workout or 2 or 3 or whatever you can add as little as a couple of large washers but continue to increase your weight over time and document.
@J S in your example of a plate and a quarter for 8 reps. If you can't get 9 reps after a few workouts switch exercises.
Continuing the genius & Legacy of Mike Mentzer & Arthur Jones.
Thank you man, keep showing the world the truth that Mike tried to show us but was called crazy for going against the $.
Sorry mate but this is absolutely nothing like Mike mentzers training,
He can call it "HiT" all he wants
@@pauldavies7251 how is this any different?
I'm a newly Father. The only time I have to train is 3 times a week 30-40 mins a week. Full time job and some. This is great Vincent ! Thanks for the wisdom! Giving this a try. Keeping it raw and basic. 🔥💯
Twice a week or every five days is enough for a natural. I regret spending too much time in the gym when my kid was young. Time is precious, and I wish I had that knowledge back in the day about muscle growth.
@@martyndunn6337 don't u think volume is good ?
@@binchili one highly intense set to failure is more effective than multiple sets with 80 /90% intensity. That’s my experience. I’m not saying volume training is ineffective. It’s time consuming and lease beneficial due to less recovery and overtraining.
it is hard but its worth it, great video
Ok. I understand the concept, but the HIT is probably good to "maintain" the gains. I do heavy to failure and it has worked for me. For example, 6 months ago I weighed 150lbs. Now I am 167lbs, no clothes, no urine, and no waste. Usually, when I eat and drink fluids my weight is 171lbs. So my method has worked. I do T.I.T. training. H.I.T will work for me when I reach 200lbs in next 16 to 24 months. Any input, is greatly appreciated. Thank you
Sinds 2024 starting hit training got some pretty good results so far, diet not on point yet, but still pretty solid results overall. I am still fine tuning my structure learning more about hit everyday day, I do like the pre exhaustion exercise. But what for advice pull over straight to row or an other exercise first like chest. Because in this vid you do the pull over first then 2 chest exercises then back again.
So 4 to 5 days rest before you do upper body again, would you train legs the day after this?! And do you swim, row, jog, ski erg or anything in-between?!
Cracking video
That was exactly my point. I think this works for size especially if you are a big guy naturally big I mean and you don't do any other activities. But I am wondering how healthy it is if all you do is lift and not do anything else just to get big. I would say maybe do this monday... Then do your activities tuesday... Then maybe legs wednesday. Then maybe a rest day thursday Activities Friday, Do your upper body again on Saturday. Rest Sunday Activities Monday Legs again Tuesday.. Etc.. This way it is more of an all around cycle and you are still having fun and being healthy doing you fun activities. Plus you are working everything twice a week and changing up your excercises is also good.
I wish my gym had a pullover machine. It does have that same type pec machine. I like the kind with pads better. I sometimes feel like I'm getting shoulder joint fatigue in the kind that uses the handles.
@@thesaurum7944 Recently I make sure to adjust it so the starting point is maybe 2nd hole from the front, which does help. So I think it works pretty well. The kind with pads can also be used by someone with hand/wrist issues, whereas the handle kind cannot. But I'm not sure I've seen any gym with a pullover in a long time.
Wow. Any other exercises you incorporate?
We need more people doing hit videos. Mike Mentzer was ahead of his time by like 100 years lol
What is the lower body workout and how do you schedule them both?
This is awesome! Anyone tried a HIT routine with a TRX/suspension trainer? I'm trying to remove all excuses as sometimes it's hard to get to the gym.
Check out Drew Baye’s stuff. “Project Kratos” is an entirely body weight HIT program.
I did do this with legs as well.
Should you do legs (leg press, extensions on a different day or can you do them on the same day. If the same day should you do them first? Thanks in advance
It works!!!!
With this training progra, do you use Mike's Mentzer nutrition plan of a higher carb diet and only like 25% protein? Or the modern high protein diet?
Do you not do any compound movement's in this exercise style?
What’s the wait time between and are we doing a total body one set each? Thanks
Great workout Jay, but what exercises do you do for legs and would you train them on the same day?
Legpress
Leg extension
Hamstring curls
Calves
What do you do for your second workout for the week?
Do u superset that pecdeck and incline press?
Please do this lower Split version
Is there a leg day video? Thx.
Jay. I see you have a bodyweight, TRX, and wieght lifting workouts. What do you think about bands for HIT?
How many reps or how many seconds do you do your warm up sets for?
Yeah I gotta get me some of that Venus return
🔥🔥🔥quality
And the shot of the Nautilus pullover with the camera so close that you can't see the exercise machine--that's brilliant.
It's an ok workout for maintaining or even getting better if have good genetics or on steroids. I like it and definitely will use it for short periods when I'm too tired or fed up of regular training volumes and want something easier for a while.
easier? 😂I don't think you're doing it right then😅
I'm still kind of confused about how to do a HIT Training session. Trying to understand it, but so I'll try and pick up tips from these videos! ❗ Thanks❗
So in 4 days will you do legs? Then in another 4 or 5 days upper body again? Or do you do 2 upper and 2 lower body a week?
What do you do on rest days? Anything at all? Just rest?
Mike Mentzer use conventional deadlifts, what’s your thoughts on that?
It's pretty much Mike Mentzers HD 2 "Ideal Routine" and added more exercises, but no rear delts?
Do you only need to do 1 x upper body and 1x lower body per week? Is this based on a 80% max lift weight, And do you increase what you lift each session.Can you also add 1x cardio hiit day?
Ups what about The legs, calfs, forearms, neck, abs, lower back ?
Question. I'm 51, 220lbs, 5'11, good health. Very sedentary lifestyle, work a lot. I've never been able to commit to a long workout schedule so I think this will work for me. I'm not looking to get ripped but want to get in best shape of my life. I've tried to live by Keto diet (roughly, for past 2 years) but have fallen off the wagon. I've done P90X in past and really enjoyed it but takes too much time commitment. Would this be good program for me and can it be done at home? Is this too intense for a beginner, non-athlete? Thanks for all the comments
Everything can be "too intensed" esp if its your first time. If you don't have the time in the gym then this type of training is for you.
If you love spending hours in the gym then multiple sets + close to failure is what you need.
So when do you do your legs? I didn't catch that. You do a full upper body workout, rest 4 to 5 days and then do your upper body again. Do you wait 2 days after your 1st day upper body training then do legs and then two days later do upper body again? Someone help me here.
