Recipes: 0 Rep Power: 27    | Thank you Powerman2000 About Dorian Yates' training: Biceps 5 sets Triceps 5 sets Back 12 sets Delt & trap 9 sets Chest 9 sets Legs 14 sets TOTAL 54 sets. Say you split it in 4, 13½ sets per workout. So yes, that is "sort of" low volume. It's about twice the volume of a true HIT routine. The guy was about 270lbs though... Think in terms of "Tissue Load"... I'm 230 and my "high volume" workouts go all the way up to 24 sets when I train light and fast... Except when I'm purposefully overtraining... Se above...

Dorian’s training style is the most misinterpreted on the planet earth. Or any Hit variation for that matter. Today we have a generation of athletes who brag about only doing 1-3 sets total for their arms, feeling that they are following Dorian Yate’s, or Mike Mentzer’s training style, when this couldn’t be further from the truth!

Getting to like this thread.... while very misunderstood (the use of multiple warmup sets etc), DY's training still fits my personal definition of low volume. Good responses, especially ss | |
