I was thinking about getting the Mike Mentzer HIT Bodybuilding Collection as advertised on this site.

It includes

1. Mike Mentzer′s HIT DVD

2. Remember the Legend Poster

3. HIT Training Booklet with training and diet tips

4. Seminar DVD Part 1

5. Seminar DVD Part 2

I do already own HD II but not sure if there is anything new in the videos.

Does anyone own the videos and is it worth the money?

Thanks

The HIT DVD with Marcus Reinhardt is a total joke. Do not waste your money. The underground seminar is interesting and worth a look but in all honesty offers nothing new beyond what HDII Mind and body already says. The one exception is the introduction of the super consolidated routine which is basically two workouts consisting of one set each of: A) Squats and pulldowns and B) Deadlifts and dips- each performed alternately with 7-10 days rest between workouts.

My take? Save your money.

I would personally get the Underground Seminar video. It′s great to hear Mike′s "latest words" before his unfortunate death.

I totally agree with Darrell. Reading Mike′s words is one thing, but actually seeing and hearing him talk High-Intensity is truly another!

To my opinion, just reading only one or two books of Mike is not enough. To get a better grasp, if you will, on his Heavy Duty system, I′d make a serious effort of collecting ALL of his material – including the HIT Exercise DVD (which, to my opinion, is NÒT a total joke).

My advice: get the WHOLE collection. You WON′T be dissapointed!

I have to disagree with Adman here. The Underground Seminar is well worth buying. It contains the same information as HD2 but its great to listen to Mike, and you kind of understand the whole theory better.

I even have to disagree about the HIT video, its got its flaws sure but its not that bad. Again its good to see Mike training someone. Marcus did build the majority of his size training with Mike, not as someone on here suggested; that he was just a volume trainer who had never trained HD and just looked big enough for the part. Marcus trained with Mike for quite some time and achieved his best gains with HD training (yes the steriods helped). Mike was happy with his demonstration of HD training and I thought it was good (appart from the leg superset which was not going to failure) everything else especially the fly′s incline superset was a good and proper demonstration of HD training.
