| does mike mentzer training work: The 4-Hour Body Timothy Ferriss, 2010-12-14 #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The game-changing author of The 4-Hour Workweek teaches you how to reach your peak physical potential with minimum effort. “A practical crash course in how to reinvent yourself.”—Kevin Kelly, Wired Is it possible to reach your genetic potential in 6 months? Sleep 2 hours per day and perform better than on 8 hours? Lose more fat than a marathoner by bingeing? Indeed, and much more. The 4-Hour Body is the result of an obsessive quest, spanning more than a decade, to hack the human body using data science. It contains the collective wisdom of hundreds of elite athletes, dozens of MDs, and thousands of hours of jaw-dropping personal experimentation. From Olympic training centers to black-market laboratories, from Silicon Valley to South Africa, Tim Ferriss fixated on one life-changing question: For all things physical, what are the tiniest changes that produce the biggest results? Thousands of tests later, this book contains the answers for both men and women. It’s the wisdom Tim used to gain 34 pounds of muscle in 28 days, without steroids, and in four hours of total gym time. From the gym to the bedroom, it’s all here, and it all works. You will learn (in less than 30 minutes each): • How to lose those last 5-10 pounds (or 100+ pounds) with odd combinations of food and safe chemical cocktails • How to prevent fat gain while bingeing over the weekend or the holidays • How to sleep 2 hours per day and feel fully rested • How to produce 15-minute female orgasms • How to triple testosterone and double sperm count • How to go from running 5 kilometers to 50 kilometers in 12 weeks • How to reverse “permanent” injuries • How to pay for a beach vacation with one hospital visit And that's just the tip of the iceberg. There are more than 50 topics covered, all with real-world experiments, many including more than 200 test subjects. You don't need better genetics or more exercise. You need immediate results that compel you to continue. That’s exactly what The 4-Hour Body delivers. |

| does mike mentzer training work: If You Like Exercise ... Chances Are You’Re Doing It Wrong Gary Bannister, 2013-02-25 In If You Like Exercise... Chances Are You’re Doing It Wrong, author Gary Bannister tells us that “the power-to-be have all but destroyed the value of muscle isolation, discredited the use of machines in general, ignored everything related to the work of Arthur Jones and replaced it with a ten-cent solution.” He claims that until the field of exercise defines what is true and what is not, it will never have the impact that it could. Muscle strength, the only factor that can produce human movement and the only factor that performs work, is disappearing from today’s training regimens. This study and guide analyzes current concepts and training systems-such as Pilates, “functional” training TRX, cross-training, kettlebells, and more-and compares their benefits to those of proper strength training to provide a clear picture for everyone. If You Like Exercise... Chances Are You’re Doing It Wrong rekindles the high intensity strength-training principles of Arthur Jones, the founder of Nautilus. Bannister focuses on the concepts of intensity, form, frequency, duration, number of repetition, speed if movement, and muscle fatigue, supporting them with current research. Logically applied, proper strength training is the only system capable of satisfying all five potential benefits of exercise-an increase in strength, flexibility, cardiovascular condition, body-composition, and injury prevention. |

| does mike mentzer training work: The Body Fat Breakthrough Ellington Darden, Phd, 2014-04-01 Anyone who desperately wants to lose 10 to 50 or more pounds but just can't find the time to exercise three or four times a week will love The Body Fat Breakthrough. It requires just one or two 20-minute resistance-training workouts using negative (or eccentric) training, the little-known weight-lifting technique that shrinks fat cells and triggers fast muscle growth. Legendary fitness researcher Ellington Darden, PhD, put 118 overweight men and women on this workout program and achieved remarkable results, which are illustrated in the book through 35 inspiring before and after photographs. Some test subjects lost 30, 40, or even more than 50 pounds in as many days and transformed their bodies and their health. Negative training is just one of 10 Fat Bombs demonstrated in the book. Others include: • A unique meal plan in which the bulk of calories comes from carbohydrates (50% carbs; 25% protein; 25% fat), offering readers an appealing new way to lose weight without sacrifice • Drinking a gallon of cold water a day to stay full and burn calories through thermogenesis • Evening after-dinner walks to accelerate body heat, triggering increased fat loss Dr. Darden's Breakthrough program sheds pounds fast while building and toning muscle in just 6 weeks. |
| does mike mentzer training work: Power of 10 Adam Zickerman, Bill Schley, 2010-10-12 Fitness expert Adam Zickerman presents a revolutionary exercise program—slow strength training—that will forever change the way Americans work out. Power of 10 seems to contradict nearly everything we’re accustomed to hearing about exercise. Forget hours on the treadmill, and forget daily visits to the gym. Power of 10 is based on a remarkably advanced yet simple discovery: By lifting weights in a series of ultra-slow movements that last 10 seconds each, you can stimulate lean muscle formation far more efficiently and safely than regular weight lifting or aerobics. Together with a healthy nutrition plan, Power of 10 is so powerfully effective that as little as one 20-minute workout per week is enough to build muscle, burn fat, and improve cardiovascular health at any age. |
| does mike mentzer training work: The Time-Saver's Workout John Little, 2019-04-09 There is something terribly wrong with the state of exercise as we know it presently. Sales of treadmills, running shoes, gym memberships, and yoga classes are at an all-time high, but so too are our national levels of obesity and type II diabetes. Ever since the 1960s the exercising public has been told to stretch for flexibility and to perform low-intensity steady-state aerobic exercise for their cardiovascular systems and some form of resistance training to keep their muscles strong. With regard to diet, they have been told to restrict or omit macronutrients such as fats and carbohydrates and lots of other advice with regard to calorie-counting. Could it be that this information, however well intended, was mistaken? And is it really necessary to devote so much time to the pursuit? Fitness researcher and pioneer John Little has spent more than twelve years researching the actual science underpinning our most prevalent beliefs about exercise and has come away from the enterprise convinced that we need an entirely new paradigm, one that would involve reliance on briefer workouts. He presents this revolutionary new approach in The Time-Saver's Workout. Among the fascinating revelations presented in this book: • Certain types of exercise can actually make you less healthy and fatter. • Taking large doses of food supplements might actually shorten your life and put you at greater risk for disease. • Stretching to become more flexible or to recover quicker from injury has been found to do neither of these things. • Resistance training, once considered to be the weak sister of exercise, is now looking like the best form of exercise one should engage in. The new protocols that Little exposes offer a far safer alternative for those looking to become stronger, fitter, and healthier without spending their lives in the gym. |

| does mike mentzer training work: The Nautilus Bulletins Alan Radley, Arthur Jones, 2016-09-30 Arthur Jones' Nautilus Bulletins may be the most important books ever written on exercise, both for the ideas themselves and their influence on others who would advance and refine them over the following decades.

| does mike mentzer training work: Brawn Stuart McRobert, 2007 If you thought Arnold Schwarzenegger put Graz, Austria on the bodybuilding map, how about Stuart McRobert and Nicosia, Cyprus? Imagine, one man, on a Mediterranean island no less, who has the audacity to directly challenge most contemporary bodybuilding advice. Instead of being another me-too bodybuilding book, Brawn is unique: its tone is serious, its manner evangelical, but most importantly, its focus is on things that actually work for the average trainee. Drugs are evil and the scourge of bodybuilding, says McRobert, in effect and forget about Mr O-type training -- it just won't work for most people. I'll tell you some things that do work. Brawn has most bodybuilding books beaten hands down in the depth department, but its biggest contribution just might be in breadth: Brawn introduces you to over 90 percent of the factors that will determine your ultimate success in the gym. A very useful book, which can help a lot of people to make tremendous bodybuilding progress. |
| does mike mentzer training work: Muscle Samuel Wilson Fussell, 1991 At age 26, scrawny, Oxford-educated Samuel Fussell entered a YMCA gym in New York to escape the terrors of big city life. Four years and 80 lbs. of firm, bulging muscle later, he was competing for bodybuilding titles in the Iron Mecca of Southern California-so weak from intense training and starvation he could barely walk. MUSCLE is the harrowing, often hilarious chronicle of Fussell's divine obsession, his search for identity in a bizarre, eccentric world of health fascists, gym bunnies and muscleheads-and his devout, single-minded acceptance of illness, pain, nausea, and steroid-induced rage in his quest for the holy grail of physical perfection. |

Matt Morsia trained for the Olympics, beat an eating disorder and overcame depression. Now he has published The 24/7 Body, a book based on cutting-edge science which dispels the myths about fad diets and workouts' THE SUN 'Shatters diet myths and clears up a wealth of misinformation' SUNDAY TIMES ______________________________________ Whatever your goals or your level of fitness, this book offers you a plan to make you look and feel great 24/7. I've tried every workout and fad diet so you don't have to. As a former PE teacher, athlete, personal trainer and now one of the biggest fitness YouTubers in the World (a.k.a an absolute weirdo who films themselves doing stuff), the most common question I get from followers and even people in the street is, 'How do I get a body like yours?' People will almost whisper it, as if I'm going to usher them into a dark alleyway and reply with some kind of mystical secret. Like they're expecting to be told that they need to drink 263ml of maple syrup three times a day whilst reading the complete works of Shakespeare to their dog. Other times they seem to want me to reveal a protocol of supplements, with an inference that I must be taking steroids or other drugs, because having a good body without chemicals is now seen by some as almost impossible. It's not. This book is my attempt to shatter all of those myths and give it to you entirely straight. It is about understanding how to live your life in a more healthy, sustainable and happy way-and how to maintain that forever. And I'm not talking about becoming a monk and only eating lettuce. If you want to eat McDonald's, go for it. Eating crappy food doesn't make you fat and by the time you're done with the book you'll understand why. I want to arm you with your own set of tools so that you can tailor my methods and experiences to you and your own unique situation. |

| does mike mentzer training work: The New Bodybuilding for Old School Results Ellington Darden, 2006-01-01 The New Bodybuilding for Old-School ResultsBy Ellington Darden, Ph.D.Muscle magazines, which feature distorted bodies and exaggerated parts, are missing the mark with their audience. The majority of readers are tired of seeing these cartoon characters and their fictional training. Discontent is rampant throughout the bodybuilding world.Most trainees dont want that bloated, drug-induced look of a modern pro bodybuilder. Theyd much rather have that chiseled, athletic look of the old-school Mr. Americas such as Steve Reeves, Boyer Coe, and Casey Viator. These men possessed size and symmetry, as well as strength and muscularity.Just as important, men of the old school passed down their training strategies and techniques: athlete to athlete, older to younger. There was a great deal of mentoring that took place in the gym, which is sorely lacking today.This back-to-the-future manual pushes for a return to old-school attitudes and practices, which were initially championed three decades ago by Nautilus founder Arthur Jones. Jones, with his high-intensity training (HIT), created a bodybuilding revolution in the 1970s. In those days, strong men werent controlled by steroids. Men were powerfully built because of hard, brief, smart exercise.The middle section of this book contains exclusive interviews of Ben Sorenson, Kim Wood, Jim Flanagan, Roger Schwab, Tim Patterson, Dan Riley, Casey Viator, Boyer Coe, and others from the Golden Age of Bodybuilding. These athletes and coaches share their guidelines and recollections about old-school discipline, which is the backbone of all result-producing programs. Illustrated are 32 tried-and-proved routines, including the Best of the Best. All the routines adapt easily to free weights and/or machines.In the final section, Dr. Ellington Darden personalizes HIT by connectingwith his Web site: DrDarden.com. Trainees are directed on how to use a camcorder, make a video of their routine, and upload it for critical evaluation. In return, Dr. Darden tweaks the workout, with his experienced recommendations on proper form, duration, and frequency; and then, follow-ups with each trainee for ongoing results.Take the long-ignored techniques of the masters, Dr. Darden says with conviction, combine that with todays science, and youve got The New Bodybuilding for Old School Results. Bodybuilders and strength athletes everywhere will benefit from this learn-from-the-past/accelerate-to-the-future plan.The New Bodybuilding for Old-School Results: Trade paperback, large horizontal format, 10.75 x 8 inches, 34 chapters, 194 black-and-white photographs, 352 pages, $29.95 US, $39.95 CAN.Available: December 5, 2005.Ellington Darden, Ph.D., is the author of 46 fitness publications, including the bestselling The Nautilus Book, The Nautilus Diet, Living Longer Stronger, and The New High-Intensity Training. |
