And we discussed training and so, okay, what are you doing?

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

You know, I'm warming up, whatever it takes, a couple of sets.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

I'm doing a set to failure and then I'm resting two or three minutes, dropping it down 10%, maybe I'm going to failure again.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

So I'm hitting that nail in twice just to make sure it's in there.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

So Mike said, why don't you try cutting back?

Huberman Lab

to one set to failure.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

So I started that around 91, 92.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

And I feel like I got another level of growth from that.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

So people say, oh, Dorian doesn't do HIT.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

I don't know.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

what category we want to put it in.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

But it's probably somewhere between conventional bodybuilding and the extreme of HIT that Mike Mensah was doing and Arthur Jones, which would be perfect for the average person.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

I mean, Arthur Jones was doing like a whole body workout a couple of times a week.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

That was his initial recommendation.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

And I agree for the average person, that's great because you want to build a certain level of muscle mass for your health.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

but I was a competitive bodybuilder.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

So you've got to be concerned with a little bit like, you know, side delts, rear delts.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

Average person could do one shoulder exercise, that would be enough.

Huberman Lab
Build Muscle & Strength & Forge Your Life Path | Dorian Yates

So you need to do a little bit more as a competitive bodybuilder.

Huberman Lab

So somebody came up with the moniker of blood and guts.
