Mike Mentzer‘s BEST Training Routine, 4 Day Split  (Day 1 Chest & Back) #mikementzer #bodybuilding



Original Music by David Meaker YouTube creator.

You will start by training once every four days on A4 workout protocol. So if you start on a Monday, that means you wouldn’t train again till Friday. After Friday you wouldn’t train again till Tuesday, then Saturday, and so forth once every four days. And if a scheduling problem arises so that you can’t make it into the gym on day four, take off one more day and train on day five also.

Once you’ve been with the program for three weeks or so, start inserting an additional rest day or two, even at random. If you do, you should never hit a sticking point, and here’s why. As you grow stronger week to week, as you will with this program, that is, as you lift progressively heavier weights, the stresses on the body grow progressively greater too, until finally, unless you do certain things like add extra rest days.

The stresses will reach a critical point, they’ll constitute overtraining, and the first symptom will be a slowdown in progress. And if you continue with exactly the same volume and frequency protocol, there will ultimately be a complete cessation of progress. Continue inserting the additional rest days with greater and greater regularity until you are only training once every five days. Then start inserting an extra rest day at random 1/6 day.

Continue inserting the extra rest day or days with greater regularity until you’re eventually training once every six to seven days. Once the fundamentals of intensity, volume, and frequency are grasped, this issue becomes the most crucial one of bodybuilding science, that as the weights grow progressively greater, the stress is also grow progressively greater and they must be compensated for.

If after a number of months utilizing the baseline program while training once every six to seven days ceases to yield meaningful results, switch to the consolidation program. Some may want to have the workout program with the additional points in their training journal to take to the gym rather than the accompanying booklet. If so, write down the words day one close to the upper left hand corner of your paper, and then write the word chest.

Next to it, the number one exercise. Number one for the pecs will be PEC deck for six to 10 reps to failure. Now from here on you won’t have to write the words to failure as that is a given and six to 10 reps is merely a suggested guideline. There is nothing magic about the number 10. If you reach 10 but you see you might go to 13 reps to failure. Don’t stop at 10, go to 13 and at the other end if you see by Rep 3 You won’t reach even 6 reps, but only four or five. Don’t stop and reload. Get four or five. The next time you’ll likely get 6:00 to 10:00, and if you don’t have access to a pec deck then flat bench, dumbbell flies or cable crosses may be substituted directly underneath. Exercise one write out the word superset and directly underneath that the number two exercise #2 for the pecs will be the incline press.

Preferably on a machine such as the Smith Hammer, Icarion, or Nautilus. If you don’t have any machine for the incline press, you may perform either regular free weight barbell incline presses or incline dumbbell presses. Exercise #2 should be performed for one to three reps, not 6 to 10. One to three reps, and make a parenthetic note next to the incline press. Use a fairly close hand grip.

Your hand should be slightly closer than shoulder width. What should be wider? Not your hands, but your elbows. Flare your elbows way back away from your torso toward your ears, and you’ll feel all the stress go into the pegs. Contrary to popular opinion, a wide grip is not the best way to develop pegs, and for beginners, a super set means two sets, one set of each of two different exercise, where the performance of 1 is followed immediately by the other.

As with pec deck super setted or followed immediately by incline press. All right, now write down the word back still under day one. Write down the word back and then the number one itself. Exercise number one for the back will be close grip palms up, pull downs 6 to 10 repetitions. close grip palms up, pull downs. Directly underneath that write down the number 2, which will be regular style, not stiff legged.

The regular style deadlift is a very productive exercise. The most productive exercise of all in fact, because it stimulates so much muscle mass, everything on the backside of the body, from the Achilles tendon to the nape of the neck. However, there is a bit of a risk factor here not seen with most other exercises, so listen carefully. If you have one available and you are strong enough, use an Olympic bar with a £45 plate on each end of the bar.

    This space between workouts is also good for cycling pre workouts. Your body can't get use to it if you're only taking it 1-2 times a week as opposed to every day or every other day the way I use to train

  13. @juliopantoja1691

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    I had a trainer tell me that resting was the most important thing about working out because it’s when your muscles break down and reconstruct even bigger now I see what he meant

  14. @bradenr867

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    I’ve been training like this before I even heard of Mike. I’ve gained 25 pounds in 2 months. All of it muscle. My bench has gone from 100 to 145 in 4 weeks.

    I have a question Is Mike mentzer saying train each muscle group every 4 days or go to the gym every 4 days? In his routine.

    Just wondering on what days he does cardio , or how he incorporates cardio into his program ?

  22. @shaunthecatlover

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    This is basically the routine:

    1×6-10 reps (two warm ups)

  26. @Dznuts3000

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    That would leave too much free time on my hands which would probably lead to more masterbating

  27. @neuemage

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    this is true but as Mike realized later each person has different recovery time, so if you dont feel sore then you can train that day

  28. @UniverseBelieve-eh6ow

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    Those 4sets , how many times do you have to do?

  29. @UniverseBelieve-eh6ow

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    What about the weight ranges?

  30. @Nope_handlesaretrash

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    Mentzer was a beast but I am not sure ANYONE has ever replicated his feats at these volumes.

  31. @algrundau9441

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    So it takes 16 days to cover the entire body ONCE???…And 32 days to hit everything twice???
    2 session per MONTH for each muscle group?????

  32. @wischi4985

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    I went to the gym 6 days per week. Hit a plateau. After reading Mike Mentzer's book on HIT, I go to the gym every 6th day and the results are insane, at least for someone who is a former skinny fat hardgainer.

  33. @kirilhristov5739

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    Can someone tell me why Back pullover is not in the program? Could I include it, supersetted with the lat pulldowns or that would be considered as a mistake? Thank you in advance.

  34. @treepaul

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    The ultimate goal is to become so strong, that you reach infinite rest day.

  35. @eliasmoubarak946

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    I trained 1 day last year, still recovering since then. Results are great so far.

  36. @canadianguy2417

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    Tried this today. Definitely hit different

  37. @muhammadfakhri2140

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    Are days 1 to day 4 sequential from Monday to Thursday or are there breaks in the days?

  38. @Trekz86

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    Do you do warm up sets with this ?

  39. @joepeter7682

    September 24, 2024 at 6:41 am

    I started Mentzers teaching 3 weeks back. I have a question and hope someone can help me with it. I am 28 kilos overweight (98 kilos while my ideal weight should be 70), with a fat percentage of 36.1 % , muscle mass of 59%. I want to get rid of my fat, and build a good frame but not a huge one like body builders.
    While on this program (1 set to failure every 4 days as instructed in his video), can I do cardio exercises like walking, jogging, swimming, martial arts at a moderate level, avoiding any sort of strength training in the 4 days rest period between gym days?

    Would be grateful if someone could throw light on this. Thank you very much.

“How long does it take to see results?” One member sees results in 10 – 30 days does not mean you will get the same results like her. It’s because your body is different and unique (you have a SMALL BUILD or your starting size is BIGGER). And because there are so many different factors at play: how often you workout, the type of your workouts, your food choice, you are being in calorie deficit or surplus, etc. – means that how quickly you see the results does not solely depend on my workouts, it’s the team work between YOU and I.

Beginners (newbies, who never/barely exercise) and members with an average fit body, they often see results faster because their bodies adapt easily to the new changes. If you are not a beginner (even if you take a long break), your body needs more time to switch from old to new routines.

And because of the differences among us (fitness goals, sizes, shapes, ages, health and physical conditions…), you should not rely on my workout as a substitute for, nor does it replace, professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
Begin with your level, stay consistent with the programs/weekly plan on my website, build healthy eating habits, limit unhealthy foods and surround yourself with motivations. You will see results like many Inshape members do.

Remember to take your Before photos and share your progress to inspire us ♡
