Awesome my Friend!!! I really enjoyed the First book better!!! I am prolly going back to the routine in the book also, with a little twist on it!!! welcome back to HIT my Friend, glad to have ya!!!soxmuscle said:trip was awesome, lifting was awesome on the trip, lifting was awesome when i got back right before new years.
i ended up getting Mike Mentzers Heavy Duty number one and two, and have finished them both. my new routine, starting next week, will be the one presented in the book.
im back on full HIT starting next Monday and i couldnt be more excited. details to come.![]()
I'll be on for about another hour or so my Friend, hope I can help!!!soxmuscle said:actually, the first time i thoroughly enjoyed the monday, tuesday, thursday split because its still relatively infrequent and the three days off (fri-sat-sun) at the end of the week are spectacular so i figure to do that again.
i'm going to be asking some questions tonight after my workout here shortly, so i hope you can make a quick stop in while the games going, or perhap at halftime or something.
thanks archie.
CowPimp said:I anxiously await the new HIT routine to be. I need to read an HIT book or two; there is probably some good information in there.

soxmuscle said:I highly recommend the first Heavy Duty by Mentzer - was rather a pricey, but very informative and to the point. the second edition focuses more on the mind and i'm having a little more trouble with the desire to keep at it.
also by part two, as i had known, Mentzer basically started believing that 1-2 times per week was all that was necessary to grow.
again, im just as excited as you are, although im going to enjoy the weekend while i can.
