HEAVY DUTY II: Mind and Body © -- Mike Mentzer's "magnum opus", his final evolution of the theory of High-Intensity Training.

New and groundbreaking insights into recovery ability, higher intensity and shorter workouts, consolidated training, when to use advanced principles, such as, forced reps and negatives to maximum effect; in addition, insights into corruption in bodybuilding, and the power of human reason to discern truth from falsehood. The title speaks for itself, as it is a book of high philosophy, motivational success stories, and the very zenith of bodybuilding training science. HEAVY DUTY II is known by most as "the bible" of high-intensity bodybuilding. This is more than a bodybuilding book - it is a training partner! Nor is it a book you will read once and put it on the shelf; each time you read it, you will learn even more than you had hoped to learn.



Published in 1996 - 163 pages in 5 3/4" x 8 1/2" - including photos.



MUSCLES IN MINUTES © -- Mike published this book in year 2000.

No, this is not Heavy Duty III. Entitled "MUSCLES IN MINUTES", this book serves perfectly as a primer on the subject of HIT. It will introduce those new to the topic of high-intensity training to the fundamentals of exercise science and their inter-relationships, written without all the philosophy and technicalities of Mike's previous works. It provides workout routines for the bodybuilder, athlete, and those seeking "total fitness", including a "Break-In" routine for those who are new to high-intensity training. Important for many, it contains extensive descriptions of all the recommended exercises. Nutrition and motivation are included.

Yes, there is some overlapping with the HEAVY DUTY books, however, for the well-schooled HIT advocate, it does contain some NEW facts and information about HEAVY DUTY™ High Intensity Training, as the truly ideal means of building strength, size and overall fitness. "MUSCLES IN MINUTES" will prove helpful as quick and easy reference material, also for the HIT expert.

Book cover photo is a favorite photo of many Mentzer Fans, 46 pages in 8 ½ X 11 with no photos.

UPDATED NOTICE June 15, 2017

THIS ITEM IS NOT AVAILABLE.

We apologize for not finishing the Revised Heavy Duty Journal. Due to unexpected circumstances with the loss of several loved ones, Joanne Sharkey has been unable to devote the necessary time to complete this project in a manner that Mike would expect. It would be appreciated if you did not send emails asking what the release date will be. When (and if) it is ready to go to print, a new notice will be posted here. Thank you very much for your patience and continued interest!



HEAVY DUTY Journal © -- A must for all serious bodybuilders and athletes!

NOTE: Mike Mentzer did NOT want to reprint this original version because he said it was outdated and it needed to be updated. This original version is not in stock.



This is not a "working" training journal, it is power-packed with even more invaluable teaching from Mike, as he delves into topics never before explored in bodybuilding: The scientific application of stress physiology, cultivating metabolic momentum, understanding and applying the body's natural patterns of flux and change in order to peak for a contest. Includes, rest pause training (a super high-intensity technique that allowed Mike to gain 14 pounds of pure muscle in 9 weeks - at an already advanced level of muscle, mass and strength!), and the latest in scientific bodybuilding are just a few of the subjects brought to you in this one of a kind journal book. Includes awesome photos of Mike Mentzer!

STILL A BESTSELLER - YOU WILL ENJOY IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

Scroll down to get your copy if you haven’t already purchased it. NOTE: The 1980 Mr. Olympia 2-DVD SET has been combined on ONE DVD disc by the photographer. Please note the price changes on this DVD as well as the other two below.



1980 MR. OLYMPIA - Complete Event Coverage!



The journalistic reports - in every magazine - which followed the contest, indicated that it was fixed. Each stated that Arnold was far from his best shape - while Mike Mentzer had reached a pinnacle! It seemed that the entire world of bodybuilding was in agreement - except the judges! Many concluded that other competitors at the '80 "O" were better than Arnold, too.



This video classic includes exciting footage of that era's most celebrated bodybuilding champions in their best shape ever. The competitors are shown during the relaxed comparisons, individual posing, and the nighttime pose down. This tape is a must for any serious bodybuilder, as it not only inspires, but serves, too, as important historical material. Was it a fix? You decide!



The line-up included Mike Mentzer, Chris Dickerson, Frank Zane, Boyer Coe, Roy Duval, Casey Viator, Roy Callender, Ken Waller, Samir Bannout, Tom Platz, Danny Padilla, Roger Walker, etc. Includes prejudging footage, plus the show. Strictly a contest video showing all competitors, and it is the ONLY record filmed from in front of the stage for this controversial contest! Held October 4th, 1980 at the Opera House in Sydney, Australia. Film to video transfer, music added.



This disc contains "lost footage" which is primarily from the prejudging and is edited together with unused footage. Thirteen of the sixteen competitors are shown as they walk on stage. Next it is the Round 1 lineup, 1/4 turns and then groups of quarter turns. See the comparative compulsory poses in various groups including Mike next to Arnold. Plus Boyer Coe, Zane, Callendar and more.



Finally, the exciting top seven pose-down after some more compulsory poses. Then the complete awards from 6th place through to Arnold in 1st place. RUNNING TIME: 1 HOUR 22 MIN.

Filmed at Their Peak in the Late 1970’s -- Watch the Masters at Work!



To satisfy the volume of requests for this film from Mentzer fans, we now offer it to you through this web site. If you already have the Heavy Duty books, you will be able to appreciate, even more so, the evolution of Mike Mentzer’s HEAVY DUTY™ High-Intensity Training after viewing this 1978 film.



The awesome Mentzer brothers, fueled by their intense rivalry, show what they can do when they pump iron. Filmed in the gym in Los Angeles, they blast their way through "display workouts" with a little less than the actual weights they normally used!!



Mike and Ray each go through one of their most incredible workouts, muscles dripping with sweat - the intensity, muscle display and sheer power will shock you!



After Mike flexes and poses each muscle group, hard and pumped, they head for Venice Beach. Ray Mentzer oils, pumps and poses in a fantastic solo presentation, for the final 15 minutes of the tape. This posing footage will guide and inspire you in your own posing.

The close-ups of his huge arms, calves, and chest are awesome!



You will see a complete posing and pumping display of every muscle from every angle reflecting definition, muscle mass, shape and veins.

PHOTOS MENTZER PHOTOS TO INSPIRE

NOW SOLD OUT!!

When time permits, a new series of photos will be chosen that will be in color. Please do not email asking when the new photos will be released. A notice will be posted when they are available. Thank you.

At this time, we would like to thank all of you who purchased the 3 photos of the legendary Mike Mentzer photographed by Garry Barlett. We are now out of stock on these vintage Black & White photos of 3 of Mike's classic poses, and the decision has been made not to reproduce more of these same shots. In the original write up, it was stated that "The photos in this series are destined to become collectors' items!" The main reason is that they were never circulated before and also they marked a specific event. They were photographed by Garry Bartlett, International Bodybuilding Photo Journalist. Captured on film in the spring of 1980 in Quebec, Canada where Mike attended a special guest-posing exhibition, during an era when Mike dominated the bodybuilding scene! No other bodybuilder captured the essence of pure muscle and strength as Mike Mentzer.
