Mike outlines a clear way to be fir for life. He combines 3x a week weight workouts that stimualte heart with balanced diet slightly reduced caloriie eating to give firm toned body. Exploded the 15 hour a week marathon workout bs and protien bs.

Mentzer tends to ramble too much and go off on tangents. As a result you will not hear much about the actual weight training program and advice till around page 102, the Chapter, "Let's Get to It." This book could and should have been much shorter. He is not cocksure and reminds readers that everyone's body will respond differently to excercise. High intensity training or the Mentzer method is about training for a short duration with high intensity. If your progress slows in response to lifting weights, you need to higher the intensity of your workouts, as opposed to working out for a longer duration.
