High Intensity Strength Training (Not HIIT)

Recommended Posts

Anyone else here engage in High Intensity Strength Training ala Drew Baye, Doug McGuff, Mike Mentzer, Ken Hutchins Super Slow, etc etc?

 

How is your training coming along? What sport do you train for, if you have a sport? Does your sport modify your workouts? Are you a 1 Rep Max guy or a Time Under Load guy?

 

And a much broader question, do you feel that Virtue can be trained under the barbell?

 

Good trainin' good trainin'.

Does 5/3/1 count?

 

Recently, I decided to transform myself from a couch potato into a somewhat physically fit individual again, and I'm going about it using the aforementioned system. I have a lifting cage and everything else at home, so it doesn't cut that much into my usual schedule, even with 4 workouts a week.

 

So far I'm pretty happy with it. I used to lift weights waaay back (like, almost 20 years ago) and I found I was able to return to it very easily, albeit @ much lower weights. I'm not that much into other sports, but there's something about lifting that appeals to me.
