Jim Haislop won the Mr. America in 1968. His incredible symmetry, proportion, and size had many bodybuilding experts proclaiming him one of the best bodybuilders ever, even better than Steve Reeves and Reg Park.
When he competed at 5’11”, he weighed in at around 210 pounds with a 32” waist and true 19” arms…
And Haislop was mass with class, which is obvious from the shot of him with his Mr. America trophy—looking suave like a real-life Johnny Bravo but with lower-body muscle. LOL
Here he is with Franco and Arnold onstage…
One of the most popular ways to train back in the ‘60s was heavy/light or, as we call it, Power/Density. Mixing heavier, lower-rep training with lighter, higher rep and/or shorter rests is a sure-fire way to get mass in ALL muscle fiber types…
And if you’re a bodybuilder, you want to maximize the size of every last fiber in all of your muscle groups—maximum hypertrophy. Why waste your time training the type 1 “endurance” fibers?
Remember what researcher Jerry Brainum said recently:
"It's now known that type-1 [slow-twitch] fibers are also capable of showing a significant level of muscular hypertrophy."
Getting growth in BOTH the slow-twitch and fast-twitch fibers maximizes muscle volumization. In other words, you get a more overall "swole effect" for freaky muscle size.
A great way to do that is with our Power/Density programs for each muscle. For more on that, see out ebook The Ultimate Power-Density Mass Workout 2.0.
