Do you guys think the Mentzer heavy duty method is still relevant today? He advocated very few sets- like 1-2 right? I hear allot of guys on here bad mouth Mentzer.
I have been running a program pretty close to the Needsize 5x5 with some tweaks. I haven't been seeing really great gains but I am not losing muscle either. I am trying to cut right now. Need to lose that little bit of fat around my waist. So, I should be looking for around 3-5 set per bodypart? Some of you suggest higher. Currently I do around 9 set per bodypart. Shit, I am still sore from deadlifts I did 3 days ago. I had really bad sciatica for over a year and it just recently went away. I am trying to be really careful with my back. I still stick to leg presses because of that. It would be nice to be able to squat again. Maybe soon.
