"Many come into the gym in the evening, for instance, feeling defeated, perhaps having been royally chewed out by their bosses just an hour earlier. Their workouts will most likely end up wishy-washy affairs, lacking the ferocious intensity required for optimal progress. What is required if a bodybuilder hopes to realize the most from his workouts and become a champion? The answer: an attitude befitting a hero, one full of fury—an attitude I call siege mentality."
If you are passionate about lifting then most probably at some point you will end up reading this book as well. I recommend you do it sooner rather then later because there are quite a few hidden gems inside.
In the first part of the book you have the general lifting advice that you would expect, however in the second part, more towards the end, philosophy suddenly starts kicking it, and then you just realise that Mike Mentzer was a game changer.
"Reading also serves the purpose of helping to foster a more aggressive attitude in the gym."
Recommended reading are novels by Ayn Rand, and funny enough if you visit the official website of Mike, between all of his books and training protocols that are up for sale, there is a small section that redirects to Rand's official website as well.
