I tried it for years, it left me with a 130lb bench a 140lb Smith squat and a 200lb deadlift.Numbers that a small 14yr old girl would not have trouble with.So I would say stay away from Mentzers version of HIT.I do agree high intensity training is the absolute best way to get strong,I just disagree with Mentzers idea if intensity.There is many ways to incorporate low volume high intensity training.Mentzers is not one of them LOL.No one needs 2 weeks between workouts, not anyone.
That reminds me I gotta sell all my HIT books on ebay someday and buy some more 45lb plates, something I should have done years ago!!
