In this video, Mike Mentzer explains his science underlying his Heavy Duty approach to nutrition for building muscle and losing fat. The points covered are:
Why you don’t need to force-feed yourself supplemental protein
What you should consume a well-balanced diet
The importance of limiting energy input (calories) during times when you want to lose fat
The importance of carbohydrates to high-intensity training
Aerobic versus anaerobic
How to discover your maintenance need of calories
What about supplements?
What is a good bodyfat level to maintain year round?
Did the low-carbohydrate diet result in steroids coming to prominence in bodybuilding?
Why the sugar in candy bars won’t give you an energy boost
How Mike dieted for the 1980 Mr. Olympia
How Tom Platz dieted for the 1981 Mr. Olympia
Also included are contemporary references to science studies that have come out since Mike’s passing that completely support his nutritional recommendations for health, muscle growth and fat loss.
Clips from certain of Wayne Gallasch’s videos appear in this video.

See Guys,Mike knew all these things back then.
I see,more and more people are finding the Truth.
Thank you John Little, We appreciate your Efforts 🙏
You’re very welcome. Thanks for the kind words.
Thank you for compiling so much of his knowledge and theory for us 🙏🏼 in heavy duty we trust
Thank you so much for sharing videos of Mike, you are keeping his legacy alive!
Watching this channel is like being transported back in time.. listening to the many times Mike would give an impromptu talk at the spartan gym.John has done a marvelous job in capturing what it felt like to be there..
Thanks, Mike! Glad you like the content - and always enjoy your comments as you were one of the few who were THERE.

John you are welcome. I thought I knew alot about Mike till I found your channel..
@@HEAVYDUTYCOLLEGEHey John, thanks for Work.
Is IT so, If you gain and get more muscles, that you need more calories above your maintaince.
Then ITS more at 6000 a year to build 10 pounds, because you get heavier?

John, thank you for all the work you do. I was wondering if you had any experience with Ray Mentzer and if so, could you share some stories with us? Keep up the good work 💪
Wow this content is gold. It makes sense. Good carbs are your friend.
Absolutely amazing, remember reading heavy duty nutrition book and everything making total sense
Imagine talking to mike mentzer 6:24
Thank you Mr. John for reopening the hidden treasure and sharing it to the natural body builders. I have 2 questions 1. Mr. Mike insists to warmup with second compound exercise, in that case what will be warmup for delts and arms day?
2. In the rest days can we do Yoga, since it relaxes body, mind and muscles?
Thanks in Advance
1. Warm up with ligther weight for side delts and you are ready.
For biceps you can warm up on lat pull down with palms up (but you are alteady warmed from 1st exercise)
For triceps you warp up with light dips
2. Ofc, light cardio and yoga are awesome
@@marko-182 Thank you man.
Did Mike Mentzer wrote a book?
Okay, I found it, it is called: HEAVY DUTY
Hi, do you know how much Mike weighted at the 1980 Mr Olympia?
And why in some pictures his chest looks very good but in others looks very bad
@@mattsharkey8437I mean but the info is available a simple google search away
You could google it, he was 225 lbs
@@marvinsalmeron585 yes, but i thought it was off season.
Because he wasn't very tall
His chest certainly was not at its best for the 1980 Olympia, but his overall package was the best on the day (from the videos).
I have a question: I'm a 18y old(1 year in gym) I'm doing Mentzer's Ideal routine with for about 3 months with 96 hours rest between each workout, but still after every workout I'm getting sore muscles for about 2-3 days, is that good? Do I need to change something?
Getting sore doesn't mean you activated the growth mechanism, and not getting sore doesn't mean you didn't stimulate the growth mechanism- as long as you're training high intensity, on a slight caloric surplus, and taking a correct periods of rest (4- 21 days) if you still get sore it doesn't mean you're not growing
@@carlosalegria47764-21? Where did you get that 21?
@@carlosalegria4776 Appreciate it! I hoped that wasn't a bad sign if I do implement the the principles
You're not a bodybuilder if you cannot perform the vacuum pose that Zane, Oliva, Mentzer, and Pearson did...
I know you know Jerry Brainum, I get that he has a lot of knowledge but what do you think about his belief that protein cannot make you fat. Although protein contains calories excess calories from protein will not make one fat.
I could not believe Jerry was saying that but he swears by it.
We both know what Mike believes so now I'm curious, What are your thoughts on this matter?
Thnkx Bud
Who is talking here? It doesn't sound Mike
It's Mike from a seminar in Rexdale, Ontario on November 15, 1981.
@@HEAVYDUTYCOLLEGE thanks. But it does not sound like him.
It sounds exactly like him because it is him. Did you know him?
@@HEAVYDUTYCOLLEGE I have head many hours of him online. Does not sound like him. Let the audience decide.
And your sarcasm is unwarranted.
It was a direct question (not sarcasm), so your assumption is unwarranted. If you have heard hours of Mike's audio, at least on this channel, most of it is from audio recordings I made first hand (such as the one you commented on). This isn't a poll ("let the audience decide"), but a channel where 100% of the audio on each video is Mike. If you only listened to audio of Mike recorded post 1995, then there is a difference in his voice (more raspy as he had had throat surgery). His earlier audios sound exactly like this one.
I bet the protein supplement industry just loved Mike
and the IFBB, and the gym industry.
Mike used to say that in order to lead the orchestra you have to turn your back on the audience.
Un adelantado a los tiempos. Larga vida a Mike larga vida a la leyenda.
So I've been listening to Mike for a few days, and I don't mean this in an antagonistic way but didn't he die in his 40s? Is that an indication that his lifestyle shouldn't be followed? Other body builders achieved similar results and lived longer. I know his brother had a heart condition, did he have similar health issues that would have interfered no matter how he lived? I'd like an educational answer please, I respect him immensely, and I achieved results following his advice, but I am concerned with longevity and over-all life expectancy as well.
To begin, l’m not sure there has never been a form of physical activity that makes you immune from death. It’s true that Mike passed away in his late forties (several months shy of his 50th birthday), but this fact doesn’t invalidate any of his training recommendations. Indeed, the clients who trained under his watchful eye and used (and still use) his training methods are all still alive and evidently in good health. If an individual’s longevity (irrespective of genetics) is your criteria for whether or not their exercise program is valid, then I’m afraid people have died using all sorts of training programs:
Jim Fix (marathoner; ran every day) - dead at age: 52
Lou Gehrig (baseball) - dead at age 37
Bruce Lee (jogging, martial arts practice, weight training, isometrics, etc., trained daily) - dead at 32
Ernie Davis (football) - dead at age 23
Brian Piccolo (football) - dead at age 26
Hank Gathers (basketball) - dead at age 23
Reggie Lewis (basketball) - dead at age 27
Darryl Kile (baseball) - 33
Bodybuilders - who used volume training - have died young as well (some much younger than Mike was when he passed away):
Mike Matarazzo - dead at age 48
Dallas McCarver - dead at age 26
Andreas Munzer - dead at age 31
Anthony D’Arezzo - dead at age 44
Nasser El Sonbaty - dead at age 47
Greg Kovacs - dead at age 44
Daniele Seccarecci - dead at age 33
(there are many others)
So, everything from bodybuilding to running, martial arts, baseball, football, basketball - all have had practitioners who died relatively young. No activity guarantees anyone a longer life, primarily because health and fitness are not synonyms; you can, for example, be very fit and get cancer and die. Every activity has participants who have not lived to a ripe old age. Mike lived to 49, but was in poor health in the final five years of his life owing to a host of health problems that were largely genetic - this is what ended up taking him out - not his training recommendations. If your goal is to live longer, then make sure you haven’t inherited any genetic predispositions for certain diseases common to our species and check the data at PubMed for any correlation between a certain activity and improved mortality. The only physical activity that I’ve come across thus far that has been shown to reverse the aging process to some degree is resistance training (check this study: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1866181/)
Dr. Kenneth Cooper, the pioneer of the “aerobics” movement has backed off on his former recommendation of daily exercise, believing now that too much exercise can kill you (www.texasmonthly.com/news-politics/walk-dont-run/). So the solution would appear to be use resistance training to reverse the aging process and don’t exercise too much - which sounds a lot like what Mike Mentzer recommended.
This is so good
Glad you liked it.
John, what was Mike typical daily menu in an off season? Can you give us an example?
