Who really was Mike Mentzer and what do so many people get wrong about him and his approach to High-Intensity Strength Training? Here to set the record straight about Mike's legacy are HITuni founder Simon Shawcross and modern-day renaissance man John Little, who also happened to be a close friend and associate of Mentzer for over two decades.

Welcome to the first episode of Shadow Talk, the podcast hosted by six-time Mr Olympia winner and founder of nutrition and supplement specialists DY Nutrition, Dorian Yates. Shadow Talk is a brand new podcast series that aims to answer the question: How can you be a better version of yourself? Dorian will be welcoming guests from across the world, to not only talk fitness and health, but how to mentally and spiritually improve oneself. Hosting guests from not only his competitive bodybuilding past, but also from his own journey to self improvement, Dorian will ask the questions that will allow you, the audience, to take away valuable and practice lessons you can apply to your own journey. Dorian's first guest is professional actor and bodybuilder Tom Platz.   Known worldwide as Golden Eagle or The Quadfather, Tom is considered the uncrowned Mr. Olympia 1981.  In 1965, Tom was just 10 years old when he began to train, his parents having bought him bodybuilding guru Joe Weider's guide to training along with a full set of equipment. One of the most infamous bodybuilders of the 1970s and 1980s, Platz appeared on the Mr. Olympia stage multiple times, competing against some of the greats such as ‘The Austrian Oak', Arnold Schwarzenegger and Chris Dickerson. Many will recognize Tom for his massive and shredded legs, which are still big even in his 60s. Despite never taking home a first-place title, Platz gave bodybuilding his all and many argue that he should have achieved better placings throughout his career. Notable contest placements include: 1986 Mr. Olympia – IFBB, 11th 1985 Mr. Olympia – IFBB, 7th 1984 Mr. Olympia – IFBB, 9th 1982 Mr. Olympia – IFBB, 6th 1981 Mr. Olympia – IFBB, 3rd 1980 World Pro Championships – IFBB, Mr. Universe Tom is very well known for his extremely intensive training, where he would push himself hard and often to failure, much like Mike Mentzer and his Heavy Duty methods.  He stated that he never wanted to leave the gym knowing he could have done more, and when you think you are finished you actually have about 5 more reps in you. He is still heavily involved in the fitness industry, passing on his knowledge and training methods to younger generations.

What's the best HIT protocol to use for your High-Intensity Training Clients? Is there even such a thing like the best protocol? John Little returns to the podcast to talk about the "Done in One" protocol, and we talk about what really matters when choosing a protocol to use, especially when considering individual variation on the road to getting the best possible results for yourself and for your strength training clients.  In this episode, we dive into hypertrophy, understanding muscle mass potential, factoring in wear and tear, older trainees, how much of what many people know about Mike Mentzer is largely inaccurate, and more. If you're keen on optimizing the results your studio gets for your clients, you'll want to listen to this episode!

Here at Iron Culture we're overjoyed any time the legends of the game are remembered in the current age, and Mike Mentzer, one of the best-built proponents of HIT (High Intensity Training) - low volume, low frequency training to failure - is making a modern resurgence. Is it because he had a top tier golden age physique? Is it the appeal to hard work and masochism that we bodybuilders are always ready to eat up? Or is it the recent research in pre-print status that indicates going to failure might be better for hypertrophy? As you can expect, it's probably a combination of these factors and there's more than meets the eye to each. Join us this week as we go deep into this modern HIT resurgence.
