Mike Mentzers Highintensity Training??

, and without changing my diet i got there. I've tried many routines without really changing my diet.

Congratulations, you have just found the first exception to the Law of Conservation of Mass! Seriously though, if you were maintaining weight on a given diet, a training program cannot cause that to increase, it's physically impossible unless you did it at the same time as a huge reduction in overall physical activity.

I'm not bashing you though I'd say the same thing to a 5X5 trainee in the same circumstance.

Not only are people on t3e 1ntern3t all advanced trainees, they also defy the laws of physics on a regular basis.

I'm levitating as I type this.

On a somewhat related note, have the perpetrators of advance fee scams discovered HIT boards yet? Seems like a gold mine: gullibility is assured. Although I guess this assumes the HITers haven't already given all their money to Mentzer...

LMAO!

You must spread some Karma around before giving it to Cynical Simian again.

maybe we should learn about it, just so we could develop a system or book that is uses the HIIT lingo, etc.. They'd make us rich.

maybe you could read up about dogpound training instead of loosely picking from MM's junk pile of training information... there are a number of fundamental differences between DC and MM training even though they supposedly use many of the same HIT ideas... funny isn't it?

Thanx, I Have Never Head Of Dogpound Training Untill I Started This Thead! Do You Have A Link For Me And Thanx You Again

Well first off i said with no changes in my diet not just eating enough to maintain weight. And this law of conservation of mass which states that the mass of a system of substances is constant, regardless of the processes acting inside the system. An equivalent statement is that matter changes form, but cannot be created or destroyed. This implies that for any chemical process in a closed system, the mass of the reactants must equal the mass of the products. So i guess being able to lift weights and not put on any weight without changing diet violates this law????? Then wouldnt atrophy be void as well. And thirdly no amount of muscle is created or destroyed in this process called weightlifting. What happens when weightlifting is muscle hypertrophy, which is an increase in the size of a tissue or organ due to the enlargement of existing cells. Hmmm the size... not in the creating of new muscle fibers. So while the law of conservation of mass does apply to muscle building, the way you used in it rebutting my comment is false. So before getting all snippy you should understand some elementary definitions related to fitness.
