I grew up emulating Arnold and studying his book, but after a few years the whole high volume routine became ridiculous and a waste of time. Dorian has it right - high intensity, one set to failure, don't hold back. The results tell it all. And if nothing else, it sure makes weightlifting a lot less boring.I work out this way now and get either the same or better results compared to high volume. Put everything into that one set after a couple of warmups. Of course, many other pros still do high volume, and they're huge, so maybe it's just finding what works for you.The book is kind of simple, but so is the system. Train all out and become huge. Period. Dorian obviously didn't feel the need to make a bible like Arnold did. He tells it like it is, and that's it. To be fair, there is very good detail on how to train each body part, his life story, etc...a lot of stuff I didn't know before reading the book.But from a pure training perspective, I'm not sure I learned anything more than I did when reading Dorian's Flex articles when he was competing. But those were great articles! If you don't have those, or want to get more detail or background on Dorian, then buy this book. Some very motivating photos also, and it's not expensive. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Only for the "Fast Twitch" folks *by B***V on March 24, 2013* This is one of a few books out there worth reading... when your body composition is predominantly fast twitch fibers.Dorian gives sound advice and if applied properly, his routines will yield results.
