Listen Later

Who really was Mike Mentzer and what do so many people get wrong about him and his approach to High-Intensity Strength Training?

Here to set the record straight about Mike's legacy are HITuni founder Simon Shawcross and modern-day renaissance man John Little, who also happened to be a close friend and associate of Mentzer for over two decades.

In this episode, we talk about the profound influence of Mike Mentzer on high-intensity training, the enduring legacy of his philosophy, and the inspiration behind the new Mike Mentzer course at HITuni. We go into the challenges of editing extensive and insightful conversations from John's immense personal archive of Mentzer media, anecdotes about Mike, and the philosophical impact on his training and outlook on life. We also talk about how ahead of his time Mike truly was, as well as his thoughts on individualized approaches to strength training and the role of recovery time between workouts.
