HDN app
I’m definitely enjoying the new app Markus created thus far; in addition to the full body, upper/lower and ppl routines, I’m curious if the Mentzer’s routine will be added at some point

Copy that
Nautalus
Does anyone think it fucking sucks that the equipment mentzer used don’t exist anymore, specially where it’s easier to superset? Feels like you have to substitute with dumbbells with certain routines

@Matt M absolutely, and I feel supersetting dumbbell flys with reverse grip bench is the way to get the same feeling given that reverse grip gives a greater activation of the upper pecs as appose to incline bench

@Drew Garton Shit if only there were gyms that had those machines for those who are dedicated to high intensity training
COMING SOON TO HEAVY DUTY NATION
I’m building a complete Heavy Duty training app exclusively for HDN members. This will not be another generic workout tracker. The app will include: Full Body Training Upper and Lower Split Chest, Shoulders and Triceps Legs Back and Biceps Workout logging Progress tracking Recovery guidance Personal records Exercise notes Heavy Duty progression The goal is simple. You open the app, follow the correct program, record the truth, recover properly and know exactly what workout comes next. The first working version is already being tested. More updates soon.

@Markus Reinhardt a touch of the modern with old school training, it would work

Between Markus and guys like Dorian Yates who trained directly with Mike Mentzer himself, I’m thankful HIT is alive and well, like the fact I can get a kick ass workout on my lunch break at work withy feeling like I’m crunched for time
Carb 300 routine
So I was curious about the workout routine in the carb 300 program, specifically for Friday optional conditioning and what that entails, are we talking about a bodyweight workout routine, hiit cardio, etc? Just wanted clarification on that whenever

@Markus Reinhardt gotcha; so are military style calisthenics such as push ups, pull ups, airs squats, etc just as good for that specific day?
Boyer Coe on HIT
If you YouTube Mentzer, you’ll inevitably come across the videos of Mike training Boyer Coe in high intensity fashion. Coe actually worked with Arthur Jones and nautilus for some time. But he didn’t really believe in the HIT way of training. In the recent Shawn ray interview (link below, go to 28:30) he mentions that the “shorter is better” training philosophy was just a marketing ploy. My question is: if HIT works better, clearly Boyer would’ve seen this, as he had access to some of the best trainers and equipment while working for Nautilus right? Could it be that some people just don’t respond well to HIT? Video link: https://youtu.be/i4PZ5yPIq5M?si=xKirebtHe1TcTzda

So aside from yourself, Dorian Yates and your mentor Mike Mentzer, who else could be considered a HIT bodybuilder?
