Hmmm... hard to give sypnosis.
Well, I guess you'll have to watch it yourself to really comprehend the stupidity that the "supposed" HIT coach was blurting out to the trainee.
"Slow, do it really slow because blah blah blah"
"Never use momentum, make sure you don't accelerate the weight because blah blah blah"
"It's the last rep that turns on the growth mechanism because blah blah blah"
"You only need to perform 1 set, all the other a warmups because blah blah blah"
"The nautilus pulldown is the BEST exercise for the back because blah blah blah"
"Train only once every 7-8 weeks, come back when you are fully healed because blah blah blah"
Well, that's basically the kind of stuff he blurts out. He was this old skinny guy teaching this other beefed up guy on how to train HIT style. He also adds in that this is science.
Well, you can download just part 1 and watch it just to see what this crap is all about. You don't need to dl the rest. When you extract it (using windows) just alt+ctrl+del the winrar process. The partly extracted file remains on the disk which is now viewable.

I d/l'd the first part and I can't get it to play. I have no idea what you mean by ctrl/alt/del - what do I do when I have the processes up?

Hey, only one working set - it's like the SF 5x5.

Right click the rar, click "extract here", it will tell you to enter the password then it will start extracting to your disk. It will then tell you to point it to the 2nd/3rd rar files (make a note of what percentage of the extraction this happens). If you don't have the 2nd/3rd rar file, it will delete the partially extracted file. You therefore need to end the extracting process before this happens. Press ctrl+alt+del to get the process/task manager up. Click on the the winrar.exe process and click "end task" just before you reach that point noted above. The extracted file will remain on the disk. It's in real media format. There's an easier way but it only works for non-password protected rar files I think.

check out this testimonial from mike's website (especially check out what i've underlinded!):
HEAVY DUTY DOES INDEED WORK! -- Posted 2/8/06
Mark Martinez – Track and Field Coach - Santa Fe, New Mexico - USA
Back in the early to mid-‘90s, after several years of inactivity, I began working out again in my quest for size and power. I tried many different methods of training, from training once a day, to two and three times a day. I tried the Bulgarian method of training and believe it or not, I even tried Power Factor Training. Sometime afterwards, I remembered about a bodybuilder that I would see in the muscle magazines - the bodybuilder was MIKE MENTZER. I recall how impressed I was when looking at the pictures of him and his brother working out, and how much effort they seemed to be putting into their workouts. I began searching the magazines to see if I could find anything about Mike Mentzer regarding his workout routine. It took some time, but I found an article where he gave an update on himself and said that he was doing personal training and phone consultations.
I guess at this point Mike had started writing for one of the magazines, and I couldn’t believe what I was reading. It made sense and he didn’t dumb it down. I found that he wrote the way he spoke - articulate and to the point. After using his routine that I got out of the magazine article, I started making pretty good gains! I finally realized that if I wanted to continue my quest for more size and strength, then I would have to call Mike and purchase some consultations. I ended up purchasing a total of ten (I believe) phone consultations from Mike. On the day I purchased them, Mike got some general information from me regarding what I did for a living, what I was doing for workouts, how often and so forth.
I finally called Mike a few weeks later for my first session. Mike spoke about how bodybuilding is a science, that you need rest, etc. (it is all in his books and other writings). The one thing I distinctly remember is Mike saying that he had it perfected. I took notes on everything he said that day. Finally the moment that I was waiting for came, the workout. I was told to do 1 set of Pec Deck with Inclines on a smith machine in superset fashion, lower the bar to my neck with my elbows flared back towards my ears (really involved my pecs doing it this way, awesome), etc. I recall that when Mike told me how many rest days to take between workouts, “workout once every four days”, I balked “every four days”? He probably started laughing inside, but then he again explained to me the importance of rest and assured me this was what was necessary.
