   • Hypertrophy is a Side Effect  

In this video (featuring audio, photos and video of Mike Mentzer) HDC examines the science literature to find out the truth about bodybuilding. Do you really need to do a high volume of sets to build bigger arms? Or is this simply an error that has been repeated by tradition? Do you need to train your arms at all in order for them to grow? How big a role do genetics play and how big your muscles can grow? and what can we learn from looking outside our species to other animals, such as Clydesdales and quarter horses? How prevalent is steroid use? Do steroids really make a huge difference in gaining muscle mass – or, as Joe Weider once said, is it only perhaps 10%? Are bodybuilding supplements, good for you, and will they build muscle? Or is there a darker side that may cause you to think twice about using them? The answers may surprise you.
