Mentzer/ HIT bros... I'm not growing....I'm getting weaker...i'm... losing muscle...

Up the frequncy, add a supporting movment. Idk what you're doing specifically but the non retarded version of HIT usually have a compound and an accessory (or two) for every muscle repeated every 3-5 days. Doing some once a week shit will almost have some degree of detraining. .

>>76324523 (OP)
You have to do the meth also for HIT to work

you're probably overtraining, I suggest you take the rest of the year off

>>76324523 (OP)
Then stick to high volume :)

I did this and got fucking huge.

Your first mistake was lifting, lifting eats into rest time, if you take a week off, every week, that adds up to 365 days a year of rest, that's how you build muscle.

Cope, liftcels.

>Visit gym twice a week
so you're doing exactly what Mentzer recommended?

>>76328668
I thinks that's exactly what he's trying to say but what Mentzer actually recommended was going once every 5-8 days which is almost 1.5x per week at most. He also said to add random rest days just because on top of this. He basically had you progress everything once a month. In his defense modern periodization has you progress once a month too but at least they have a way of doing so. Maybe Mentzer assumed you were also doing a lot of work outside of the gym. Maybe it's just that people were way the hell more active back then.

I took 2 years off and now I can't fit though doors

>>76328664
Okay, post body, bro.

>>76328823
Earlier Mentzer is more right than later Mentzer unfortunately.

Mike isn't dead. He's just between sets.

>>76328964
If he waited this long to lift he must be huge now

imagine the gains of not lifting for over 20 years

>>76328664
why do mentzerfags never post body?l or at least by how much they increased their lifts?

>>76329140
I am too busy resting, fuck you

>>76324523 (OP)
By doing what?
