I put this together because I’m tired of seeing Heavy Duty turned into memes, opinions, and watered-down takes. This is Mentzers TRUE workout program — assembled, cleaned up, and preserved the way it was meant to be trained. No algorithms. No trends. No compromises. Just the actual system that built physiques — and still does. I made this available as a direct PDF download for anyone who wants the real thing and wants to support keeping Heavy Duty alive as it was, not as the internet wants it to be. If you grab it, I appreciate it. If you train it, even better. 📕 Mentzers True — PDF ⬇️ Direct download: https://payhip.com/b/u9Aqg Train with intent. Protect the legacy. Let results do the talking.

I just added a new article to the HDN Classroom: Building Muscle in a Caloric Deficit . The science, the training structure, and how all HD plans already work with it. This breaks down: - Why muscle growth doesn’t require a surplus - How intensity keeps protein synthesis active - How to train and eat when calories are low - Why volume fails and precision wins - This is not a cutting article. It’s a re composition and muscle-preservation playbook. Available now inside the Classroom for HDN Premium members. — Markus

Has anyone tried the consolidated routine? I think I'm going to take a crack at it. I have been doing my current routine for about 3 months now and am looking to switch it up for another 3 months. Also, how often do you guys switch your routines?

I figured I share this one with you all. A great way to work around shoulder issues if you wanna still do overhead presses.

Quick heads-up. For the next 3 days, Heavy Duty Nation Premium is open for $29. After that, it closes and the price goes back up. If you upgrade to Premium, you get: • Full access to all premium content• Additional eBooks added to the course section • Direct feedback from me on your training videos • Access to the live Premium call this Sunday at 7 PM • Priority positioning as HDN continues to grow This isn’t about hype or motivation. It’s about training with precision, recovering properly, and finally knowing what actually matters. If you’re already inside HDN, Premium is where the real coaching happens. To upgrade: Go to Heavy Duty Nation → Premium Takes about 30 seconds. Three days. $29.Your move. — Markus PS: If you’ve been watching from the sidelines, this is the lowest entry point you’ll see. Join now, get in on Sunday’s live call, and decide from a position of clarity—not guesswork.
