I love his approach to building muscles
Very interesting audio as i find his training method very, very interesting and rather logical. Some very good advises as well. I will try and see what happens. However as i am a retired guy, eating plant base i am curious to see results versus the way i had been training with weights most of my life. This high intensity, to failure set, shorter workouts might well be very suitable for someone like me. In any case my respect to Mike and his legacy, just sad he left the world too early 🙏.
