Lee Priest on Dorian Yates and HIT Training

- I have been asked many times to get Lee Priest's thoughts on the bodybuilding legend, Mr Olympia Dorian Yates.
In particular they want to know Lee's opinion on the HIT (High Intensity Training) that Dorian performed.
Ironmaster IM2000 - samsfitness.com.au/ironmaster-... - Jak na to + styl
Dorian stated he didn’t do “one set”. He warmed up into the last set which was to all out failure. Each set the intensity was increased to the last set which was max effort and the one that counted for adaptive response.
Exactly. Yates has said that he took some of Jones’ and Mentzer’s principles and modified them to better suit bodybuilding. I think calling it HIT is just to give it an attractive label instead of just low volume pyramid training to one working set to failure.
@@RMDole19 Agreed.
All sets count for adaptive response
@@burnhamsghost8044 no just the last one
I love that he's wearing a Smallville hoodie over a Batman thermal.
Ian Simmons lee and Dorian are the SAME person.ear biometrics don't lie.wellaware1.com and educate yourself on the bullshit.
@@paulajewitt2012 what do you mean?
Lol maybe he has on wonder woman underwear 🤣
There is a lot of benefit to "mixing it up" like Lee says. He always gives really good advice.
Would like to give a special thank you to Lee Priest and Sam's fitness for the time spent on doing these videos. I work my job for 20 year to support my family but in turn spent 20 year inactive at work for 12 to 16 hour shift, smoking 20 cigarettes a day, and eating camp food in oilpatch. 7 months ago I decided to take control I no longer work that job, I quite smoking, and change my diet, I started watching you on CZcams you advice and videos have keep me on track, recently a month and half ago I started to go to gym, my back pain is almost gone, I am stronger and able to do more for longer periods of time and see muscle developing all over. you video are appricated and do help. Sincerely J. Palmer
that's great keep up the good work
Nice
Update ??
I've never been a big fan of Lee Priest until I've seen his interviews. Now, after seeing his interviews (especially the ones found on this channel) I find myself quite fond of Lee, and admire his words of wisdom and physique.
Really enjoy the videos you guys make. Greatly apriciate to hear his opinion on basicly anything.
HIT has one working set, everything else prior to that is considered a "warm up" but these warm up sets can get pretty heavy and give you a good pump. But, they are not pushing toward failure quite yet, they save it for the working set so the muscle tears down and the body will adapt and rebuild it bigger and stronger.
So calling it HIT is just semantics, it’s just pyramid training.
@@darthghitza8037 pyramid training? Than every training style would be called like that. Iv never seen anyone going to the gym to hit maximum weight without any warm up...
@@Majk_L pyramid training is when you pyramid up to your one working set. If you use 5 warmup sets, or 1-2 like Dorin it doesn’t matter. Non pyramid training would be doing a few warmup sets and doing a few working sets at your working weight.
@@darthghitza8037 Thats still pyramid training. u r still adding more weight until you get into your final working sets...
It's not pyramid training. Your light and medium should not be anything more than to warm up for one working set to all out failure. In high volume pyramid training people will get a touch on many of the sets, whereas this isn't necessary in HIT. The only purpose of those sets are to get a mind muscle connection and to warm up. Then, the working set is to all out failure. Once you can no longer get another rep, you have to get forced negatives to failure and the static, too. Also, unlike pyramid training you don't hit the same angle more than once either. Once you have done pull downs, you wouldn't then do them on a different machine, as that part of the muscle is done so you move on. Obviously, you can never isolate a back muscle of course. It couldn't be any further from pyramid training. Peace out.
i love it, he has no ego whatsoever.
Time flies man I remember when I would read about Lee when I was younger, anyhow thank you for the bits of knowledge keep the videos coming.
Hey Sam could you ask Lee about the news report done on him and his mother back when they were competing? Would be great to hear him reflect back after all these years. Thanks!
Another great video
Great to see someone else doing a rotor cuff movement, not seen any other's doing it.
Lee brings up a good point. Dorian would usually do 2-3 sets and then do 1 set to failure. These 2-3 sets were "acclimation" sets in HIT training, but in a normal volume style workout they would just be considered working sets. Dorian did a lot more volume than people think.
Yeah, that one set to failure thing is bull anyway, I used to always do that and got no results.
Started doing 3-4 carefully programmed sets, felt so much better.
AntPalm8
I may have missed the point of what he was saying.
You're right, I can't speak for everyone, but for me and I'm pretty sure most people, just one set to failure won't do much.
I also train for strength not bodybuilding, so I'm sure it's different. But no decent strength program has one set to failure as the base of it, maybe once every 6 weeks or so you go one set to failure.
Again, I forgot I was on a bodybuilding vid, so I probably shouldn't have commented on it since I don't really know.
" These 2-3 sets were "acclimation" sets in HIT training, but in a normal volume style workout they would just be considered working sets" No, those are warm up sets in a volume routine. For a volume routine you must use methods like straight sets, drop sets, supersets to get additional volume. Dorian Yates did 1-3 "warm up sets" and 1 working set (he said he did 2 working sets in his younger days though).

@WhatSideOfTheBed DidYouWakeUpOn shut ur ass pussy
Yeah Whatever You can’t get your mental mind to work that hard
@Yeah Whatever It doesnt work for you, because youre to weak, that makes you a loser
@Yeah Whatever Nice story man 😉😉
What planet are you from goober? Priest has never won an Olympia.
dorian would do 2 warm up sets on compounds and 1 on isolation exercises
I meet Dorian in 92,93,94 when I lived in Atlanta..the home of the O in the early 90s...He had such muscle mass and thickness..watches him train days up to the oylmpia..he put up weights that was crazy...but he did warm up..doing lighter sets ..warm up to him..then he killed the hit training.
fit4me
I thought that Dorian always trained in Birmingham and only showed up for the contests, earning him the nickname "The Shadow"...
In interviews now he says that his biggest mistake was to have continued training at high intensity on the weeks leading up to the contest, while on a severe caloric restriction, which probably contributed in large part to his most serious injuries.
I love this guy keep it going brother
at last now the secret is out how to look like Lee you guys are too much thanks for this :)
Saw Lee doing a guest pose in the early 90's in Brisbane Australia at a Lee Labrada seminar.. From memory Lee (Priest) was around 16 or 17 yrs old.. Was a decent fella then, nothing has changed obviously..
What was Lee's opinion of scotland while he was visiting unique physique?
Dorian's warm-up sets were 30,50,70 percent of his working set maximum, next exercise 50 and 70 percent or only 70 percent of max. it depended on exercise. On last exercise he skipped warm-ups and only did one working set to failure or beyond. So what he did was pyramid the whole workout. It is completely different what his peers usually did at that time, i.e 5 sets of 12 and 4-5 movement per bodypart. If someone consider his warm-up sets as a working set then good luck for him.
Great channel lee
Dorian was probably my favorite BB. Lee was right up there with the best.
Lees awesome!! Good to see he never faid away
Hi Sam, Has lee not looked up Bostin loyd yet ? We all want to hear his response
training is always about intensity be it low or high weights, high or
low reps, I try and beat my last workout but that ain't always
possibble, so you gotta mix it up all the time and the key is listening
to what your mind is telling you because most of your gains will always
be made when the body is ready to fail but your mindset won't let it
Can you pls ask Lee his opinion on insulin spiking with dextrose post workout, and on occlusion training as an effective form of muscle hypertrophy
Sam is there an E-mail when we want to ask Lee Priest a question? Keep up the videos to, love to hear the answers to some questions.
Like listening to Lee and what he has to say..... and he mentioned Paul Graham's Gym at the back of his house... I trained there back in '77... got my first go at performing on Stage as a novice.. got most muscular as a novice.....
if you've trained for any amount of time and made significant gains you
realise that some things work, others don't, the body adapts so the mind
always has to be one step further to trick it into growth.
Hi Sam, can you ask Lee what he thinks about mens physique and today bodybuilders? Thanks
Muscle growth is an adaptation to stress you put on the muscle. Any type of stimulation as long as theres mediocre effort... will cause growth for the first 12-18 months. What Lee clearly points out here and Dorian also preaches about is the FOCUS of the MIND. Be smart and keep you're body guessing and you'll grow after 18 months when most stop. I find HIT useful for this (experienced lifter) but there are many ways to continue to grow and develop.
I love how people have no idea about Mike Mentzer's training. He would in no way suggest that you do 40 reps of 135 then load the bar with 600lbs and do reps. He is a published bodybuilding. Buy a book. Read it. Then try it. The gains are insane and in one of them he does talk about training Dorian Yates. Dorian could have easily taken a few principle and applied it to what he was already doing. It isn't like Mike's routine was magical. It was scientific! Achieving the minimal dose to stimulate muscle growth and strength. Sadly for most meat-heads, that just isn't enough work and it completely counter-intuitive to everything they have ever heard or done because the BB world is saturated with volume training. I have been employing Mike's principles and put on 5kg of muscle pretty fast. I got my MMA buddy on it who thought all bodybuilders just used light weight/high reps and got him on some HIT. He put on 4kg in three months. This was all drug free. Just good food, better training and rest. And really, REST was Mike's thing more so that lifting. He was an incredibly smart man. I encourage anyone to read a book of his, preferably High Intensity Training with Mike Mentzer. There are a few videos before his death... literally before his death, hours before where he is putting a guy through a session. Look at the pain on the man's face. How can a program like that, not put size on you? I will say that I think Mike's program is a perfect winter program and stick with tradition high volume during the summer to burn more calories and stay lean. AND yes, I was using skin fold calipers to measure my gains. That 5kg I put on was not fat.. at all!

Great !! whats your HIT split and exercise selection ??
It's a two day split.going to three. But they are an A day and a B B day. A day incorporates the pre exhaust principle using and iso movement then hit it with a moderate heavy compound. So basically flies followed by bench, Straight arm pulldowns followed by either chins or lat pull downs. Tri ext followed by weighted dips or seated dips. Supermans or good mornings followed by deadlift and that is upper body done. No need to hit biceps really. The same thing goes for lower A, I am sure you get the idea. I alternate exercises for B day is heavy duty. So flies and incline or decline bench and front squats.. always do leg press on leg day and squats but change my squats up. On heavy duty I don't pre exhaust just warm up up then hit it with a moderate heavy weight for really slow reps and do forcred reps. Some times I add drop sets to either routine. I do A one week then B the next. It is crazy how do more reps or weight each week without doing the exercise for a week.Sometimes I will do consolidated and do flies flowed by heavy dips, pull ups, deadlift and squat and call it day. I will do that if I miss a day and need to make up and do full body. It is fast and hits every thing you need to hit.
+Gold Dee
thank you very much ,everything makes sense !!!keep repping strong !
Gi Karadi no problem. I forgot to add shoulders. If I do shoulders, I do triceps on a different day or just rest them. Shoulders are lat raises followed by shoulder press.. dumbbell or with bar or machine, preferably
calble
+Gold Dee
pre exhausting is also one favorite method of me too
unbeatable .Although many other HITers have abandon pre exhausting from their training .
From my limited understanding of Mentzer ,I doubt he ever advocated going to 6 or 7 plates straight away. The HiT training was more in the moderate rep range anyway (6 to 8 reps) and Mentzer was a brilliant guy. Seemingly there were very short rest periods and the best bang for the buck moves were executed in rapid succession. Form had to be impeccable with no swinging nor momentum. If a move couldn't held for a few seconds isometrically at the contraction point eg,cable rows,it was considered the end of the set since other muscles had taken over .Mentzer felt that Dorian used too much moementum in his training .
Muhammad Moosa lol Mentzer was a meth head and delusional.
6x Mr.Olympia
I appreciate Lee's candor, and lack of hype for everything. You get all these methods like FS7 with names to sound really scientific and special, or advertised as the Bulgarian strength secrets, and guys talking about their reps and sets like its the most profound damn thing in the universe. In reality its basically just grunting it out man like Lee said, its not something that requires a high IQ people. Lee and others like Branch have also admitted that many pros doing training videos aren't realistic either. They do a bunch of big lifts with a bunch of weight for the video they really don't normally do. A common lift that lends itself well to this is the leg press, we've all seen them put every 45lb plate in the damn gym on them, and for good measure have their training partner or chick in the gym sit on top, while they do partial reps for the camera. No one can or does literally a ton of weight as a regular part of their training, the muscle, connective tissue, joints, and the nervous system would simply break down and couldn't take it, even on gear. Every pro I've seen train for real rarely goes to failure, like Lee said, the ones that over do it get injured big time, like "Zack king Khan" who blew out both patella tendons training legs. Train sensibly, with a variety of intensity levels like heavy and light days and cycle training, and learn how to read your body so you don't over train or under train either.
I used to load 450 kg on the leg press and do one set without removing safety catches, so just upper leg presses and I only weigh not much more than 14 stone. I could probably only do 100 to 150kg for full range leg presses.
As a powerlifter with good wheels I have never done a left press. Squat, front squat, split squats, curls and extensions. For cardio use some high rep goblit squats.
Sam, can you please ask lee if he ever saw Victor Richards train. Victor says in a video he trains "instinctively". Maybe Lee can tell us more about that. Thank you.
The moment I saw him squatting using Smith machine, I knew what to do.
It's known that Dorian trained largely high volume prior to meeting Mike Mentzer around the time he won his first Olympia in 1992 and some say he largely credited Mentzer there on in because he felt bad for Mentzer (who was going downhill by then) and also to give Mentzer some limelight after all those years being shadowed by Arnold (Dorian has voiced since he's not the biggest fan of Shwarzenegger)
Bullshit
Dorian studied everything about bodybuilding. He read Arthur Jones hit training and he Mike mentzer's associate. Dorian did HIT because it suited him.
Dorian trained three times a week in his very early days, upper body, lower body ..basic moves.. He then adopted the Mentzer style which he engineered to suit his genetics..
They only thing similar is the "last set to failure" approach. Other than that they trained very differently.
I've stated this many times before and got slammed by everyone. No pro started out with heavy duty training. They started low volume, increased volume, then as they were able to increase the intensity they backed off the volume again during heavy duty. He had the dense look and size because he did volume training then heavier to failure training later. If you start out heavy duty you'll never make it big. You need volume training to develop the mind muscle connection in order to later have the ability to feel the muscles more during the low volume heavy duty training. Newbs do not know how to feel or contract their muscles. Heavy duty will not benefit them from the start and they will surely limit themselves. The goal is to eventually be able to back off the volume and use more intense lower volume to maintain as you get older.
Dorian did a few sets gradually increasing the weight before doing the final set on each exercise at max weight to failure.
Thanks for the video bro!! The way dorian trained is obviously affective. I wouldn't even think about trying it though. I would leave the gym feeling like I hadn't done shit. I love volume. But I agree it's the mind set. Training hard is key!!
You wouldn't be doing it right if you left feeling that way.
I dont do it all the time but every know and then I do, and if you go to complete failure you feel absolutely FUCKED when you walk out of the gym. And if yourve done legs, you crawl out lol.
@@nofo9231 1000
Can you ask Lee his opinion on Frank Zane and how you think he would get on if he was competing today.
Place no where
@@misternatural1338 Zane would be too small for classic now
I visited World Gym in Marina Del Rey. Actually met the late great Joe Gold there...he was in a wheelchair. One of the things he showed me was a set of big chrome 250-pound dumbbells. "Those are for Lee Priest when he comes here..."
I defy anyone to lift those without 'high intensity'.
Lee is and still is the best💪💪
all pros are awesome because it takes a real pain loving monster to get a killer body and not everyone is cut out for that but if i had to choose two guys who i like for their honesty and up front attitudes it would be lee priest and dorian yates without a doubt.
Where did Lee get that shirt from?
Who has a gym in a loading dock?Who's gym is it and what and where is this place?
Lee priest, the most honest body builder, if he released a workout book first chapter would be all the steroids you need before you start, no bullshit or ego with this guy blows the myth on everything gym related and doesn't dress it up
Is that a storage warehouse and gym all in one he training in
Legend
He makes a good point about not being able to do one warm up set on Squats and then immediately go to your max weight. That's why all HIT advocates use a lot of machines in their training. You could conceivably do the one warm up and one max set on, say a Leg Extension or even a Leg Press machine relatively safely. I mean, who in their right mind would go to TRUE FAILURE on exercises like Squats or Deadlifts. Your form would break down and you'd probably end up getting injured.
That's a good idea. I'm glad it's working for you!
ironray123 Which is why Dorian never did squats during any of his six Olympia wins. HIT works when you take the 'skill' out of a movement. Squats have far too much skill association to really go to failure without injuring yourself.
Dorian never did squats in his leg routine, he did leg extensions, leg press and hack squats. He doesn't believe you can really go to true failure doing squats and he is correct. The lower back would give way before the legs, he trained smart and hard and the one warm up is sufficient on isolation exercises if you have done an exercise before hand. I've been using his training style for about 3 months now and i can say from my experience that it works and working past true positive failure and exhausting the negative portion of the reps at the end of a set is a lot more efficient than all this 'volume' training that today's bodybuilders are obsessed with.
+NotQuiteArnie - You are spot on. HIT is about contracting the muscles fully and working to failure. Squats are way overrated for body builders because they don't isolate the thighs enough to work the muscles to failure.
+Peace Seeker you explained it a lot better! Im glad to see people trying this type of training for themselves to realise it's the most efficient!
I like the Smallville jacket.
Thanks Lee! I been saying what you said for a long time. You're going risk a lot of injuries doing one set High Intensity Training. Lee Haney and Ronnie Coleman always pyramids up to their heaviest set and avoided a lot of injuries.
+Captain Mantastic well ok feel free to add me on Facebook, Christian Davenport (Dack) I'm more than willing to demonstrate I have results. Also I'm interested to see your results as well. I'm not looking to be huge, I seek big in fair proportions. I'm also 6'2.
45 minute sessions 4 days per split cycle is what Dorian did. I really don't know if other pro body builders trained with concentrated of time period and with little total volume and low of frequency training with finite of exercise selection and the pre exhausting method with a isolation exercise followed by compound movements for bigger muscle.
I mean there is something different to what Dorian does
Strange...considering Dorian trained about 90% of all his training in Temple's gym in the UK: I guess when people saw him train outside of Temple's gym, he would train different...huh. And then they all trained the same but for some reason we see Chris Cormier go HIT on legs and throw up...weird. But I guess all pros trained the same and Dorian was just promoting HIT for some monetary gain as it seemed different I guess. glad lee helped us understand
seems like a genuine bloke. the M.M. stuff is great for beginners because the weight you can lift isnt heavy, as you get stronger the constant diving into heavy weight is very hard on you, shoulders elbows knees are hit very hard. some people have the genes to take that abuse but most dont.
Must be nice to not bother training to failure and still manage to get frigging huge.
Thats genetics for you.. I know some Monster guys who never go near failure and train like girls... Failure is a minimum for me.. I started at 49 kg with short muscle bellies i had to train like mental to double my bodyweight, and thats bullshit Lee, not all the pros train even close to the same.. Some do 40 sets per bodypart, some do 4.... Some go past failure, some never reach failure.. Look at Dorian compared to say Kai or Jay, HUGE DIFFERENCE IN INTENSITY AND VOLUME...
Phenomenal genetics for musclebuilding, coupled with the advantages of steroids that practically all of the pros have, means you can ignore the majority of so called 'training advice' from 99% of all pro bodybuilders, Priest included
Very few use any sort of rationale and subscribe to the childish "more is better" mantra
There are precious few who provide(d) anything like advice that is logical and Yates and Mentzer are among their number
Most genetic freak pros seem to believe that everyone is blessed with their insane recovery ability and incredible ability to grow muscle without training with much intensity at all, just more sets, more volume, more often, more more more and you should get huge !!
By this braindead 'logic' PeeWee Herman could look like vintage Schwarzenegger if only he trained long enough, often enough, ate enough and had the required dedication to do more more more
yeah
'wisdom' of a genetic freak who would get 17-18" arms from doing nothing but pressups all day
Big R w
***** failure is on 1 set you idiot
How does he know what Dorian did?
Lees got a good sense of humor
Lee speaks the truth, hurts some. Bless.
Dorian would warm up, then work up to his heaviest weight, just like many other people and pros. The difference is his overall volume per workout and his and Mike's emphasis on recovery. Granted towards the end of his career, Mike was promoting a bit of an excessive rest regimen in my opinion, I do believe the reduced overall volume and consistent time away from the gym is important for growth and systematic recovery.
High Intensity is not about doing a warmup set then immediately go to a maximum weight. That's the misunderstood part. It's about doing 2-3 incremental sets then the last set is a weight for 5-8 reps then several slow forced & negative reps until failure. Dorian himself said the most he ever BB curled was 150 lbs. It's less about the weight & more about going to failure.
Does Lee Priest have a gym in an Amazon warehouse? What's with all the crates and boxes?
pizzaDhut Thought it were his job or something
He lived there in the warehouse his bed was upstairs in an office, he lived and worked there for a few years
1:55 This guy kills me.
It works. Try it yourself. If your pushing to failure and more with the exercises that suit you it works. Don’t comment unless you’ve give it a go.
@Mantastic-ho3vm do you fancy me
@Mantastic-ho3vm do you fancy me
Great comments.
Anyone who thinks D Yates did one heavy set is very badly mistaken.
Captain Mantastic How has HIT been debunked?
No it does not
Yates said he did 2 working sets on each exercise in his younger years then switched to one working set for each exercise in his later years.
He never did 1 set of high intensity training . that blood and guts workout is a half ass way of doing hit
Didn't really touch base on the intensity over volume aspect of HIT compared to traditional bodybuilding.
The question that I'd like the answer to is what would Lee Priest have looked like if he never had taken any drugs , I'm thinking good but how good can you look at 160 lb.
Joe Szabo what would any of these guys look like if they were natural ?
But lee priest calls out short workouts? Saying there is no such thing as over training. So what does he think of Dorians philosophy of training for 45 minutes. For most people training properly with correct intensity you don't want any more than that.
Is lee doing the Universe? or has he decided not to?
HIT must be working
look at this Markus Reihardt guy .He is a kind of continouing the Mentzer tradition
He trained Hitedada Yamagishi and others also
Opinion on Bostin now.
2:45 "don't always have to go heavy nigga" 😂😂
heady duty no less than clear 6 reps up to 10 reps with few sets up to 2 or maximum 3 and few exercises for each part is for me the best way.
+Caribo Lava Heavy duty is for retards
An who are you? Hulk hogan with the big cupped hand rippin the fuckin shirt open ?
Santas withGuns Dorian Yates and Mike Mentzer weren't retards
wonder if Lee Has ever read either read either of the Biographies of Arthur Jones a very very, Fascinated and very strongly opinionated man both bio's are by him and are free online at the Arthur jones online museum, plus all his writings for Ironman magazine , first bio is "And God Laughed" back when he was a big Game hunter and Exporter , and the 2nd Bio is "My First 1/2 Century in the Iron Game"
Metzer and his views on general life seem to be heavily influenced by Jones even outside the weight world .
Lee priest had an amazing shape.
Yeah, amazing shape indeed :
www.cjoint.com/c/IBfi2zNf3lL
Is dat an irish dude in the background saying 'few tattoos sorted' 😂😂
I would love to SEE lee og into bodybuilding mode and compete again instead of complaining how bad bodybuildere are today
Hey Sam, can you ask Lee his opinion on the 1980 Mr Olympia result?
The Great Fix of ‘80!
Low volume vs high. Low works for some high for others.
@Daniel Fennec Agree.
I love that I'm seeing comments from people who know exactly what Dorian used to do 😂
+Jed Hassell "But I read on the internet that Dorian used to........."
+Sam's Fitness - Gym Equipment I have his book. He used to train like Lee says, with multiple sets up until 92. Then he cut down his workouts by around half and did at most 4 working sets for a muscle group, the rest would be warm ups.
+Nathan M chitty program . only good for steroids and heavy ass loads - that will fuck up your joints in the long run
Viking Power I agree with the joints, not with the effects though. Made very good gains on the hit
Soooooooo you're saying take steroids
Lee Priest is the Shane Watts of body building.
He looks like a Bond Villain
lees the most laid back and rasional bb out there
So sad the growth on his face.... stay strong dude!!
What about the growth between your ears?
If you train regularly in a gym, which is better than less frequent training, you will probably have days where it is not the best to go full out every time and it could very much lead to injury. Of course heavy and intense is good....
Sam you sound like damo and Darren "lemme barrow ya loita you're ciggy but brain" is this your real accent? It sounds comical.
I think if there is a secret.It’s to ditch the ego lifting .And focus more on what the muscle is doing. You can lift weights very heavy but with bad form.or you can lift moderately with mind to muscle feeling the flex.i think this is why some get huge and most don’t.it’s like I said,ditch the ego!!! did you like what I did there???
Yes
The name of this video is a little redundant, HIT Training=
High Intensity Training Training
Did he say Paul Grant or Graham?
Graham
The dude holding the camera sounds one hundred percent like 'The last natural' guy!! Check out his channel you'll see what I'm saying!!
lee has got the terry jenkins vibe
The only way one can train like Dorian did and fir whatever recommended is to be on GH. The body can’t recoup from that type of workout without at least 5-10 days of rest.It’s high risk high rate of injury.
Both Lee and interviewer don’t understand HIT.
Yes as you say, volume clearly does work but the trouble is people like Lee are genetic freaks. For average Joes, volume works much less. All would benefit from a move towards more intense, brief and infrequent training, but it’s impossible to prove in retrospect.
Many find HIT hard to get their head around. It’s too bad basically. My tip if you go volume current is instead of repeat, identical sets, either do one set or a few sets of different exercises for a muscle group. You don’t have to use max intensity if it’s too unpleasant to you. You can still make progress on less. The worst things about volume training are easily avoided: long, frequent workouts. Just train more briefly and less often. You won’t regret it.
@@Coneman3 coward.
Why?
"any dwarf can get huge" - big lenny
Most scientific literature suggests that protein synthesis occurs by FREQUENCY and hypertrophy occurs through VOLUME. Intensity can still be applied.
The guys in the 70's trained bodypart 3 times a week and looked incredible (and that was before the sophisticated drugs of the 90's or today)
for most of his career dorian did 2 sets to failure, with like 3 "warmup" sets beforehand. So really, the effort of the first 3 sets was moved to the 2 sets, but was a total effort of 5 sets
i always thought you lift the heaviest you can
Face tatts are so hectic, that's some real balls right there haha.
Hell may simply be a video starting at 2:03 - 2:33 on repeat with us strapped in a chair
Why do people say HIT Training? High Intensity Training Training, really grates me
