Believe it or not, he was a heavy smoker. Like 2 packs a day. I spoke to him once or twice, I ordered a book from his website and I never got the book so I called to complain and I am yelling and screaming at a guy for like 5 minutes, finally I asked who the hell he was and he told me it was him, I apologized and we spoke for about 20 minutes, he talked a lot about HIT and we hung up. Not a bad guy, but he didnt take care of his health in the later years.

Peace,

You'd be crazy to think that his obvious drug abuse during his competitve career had NOTHING to do with his complications later in life.

Oh so your saying that his steroid usage is what caused his decrease in health and eventually death later on. Preach it to the rest of this board, I'm all natural remember. I was making the point that he never took care of his health especially not in the later years....HELLO!!!!

P.S. And yes, I am crazy. Thanks for playing,

Thanks for the link skyscraper.
I too spoke to Mentzer a few years ago and he did seem like a nice guy. I have been a "Hitter" almost my entire weight training "career." I have always trained with more volume than what Mentzer ever recommended, but I do feel without him and Dorian Yates I would never have gotten as far in my lifting as I have. Mike was a great influence on me early on.

Natural Mike, the contraction 'You'd' can be used as a generalization, not addressing anyone in particular, but a group of people as a whole. Translation for you: I wasn't responding to you directly. Have you graduated from high school yet?

Ghost,

Sincerest apologies, bad day at work here thats all, must be Creatine Rage or something. And yes I even graduated college, but I'm still a shmuck.

Seriously, my bad.....there is still love, right?

Peace,

Natural Mike
