But I will tell you, you are not understanding what I am suggesting. I am not talking about squatting today, squatting tomorrow...
Take some time and read the articles and learn. The articles are written by the owner/operator of the strongest gym in the world bar none. And more than just a bunch of strong guys, many, many professional teams in all sports, as well as the highest caliber individual athletes seek his advice and incorporate at least some of his training methodologies. And btw...he is over 60

And when your done let me know what you think. I think it will help you (and could help the vast majority of people) if you apply the principles. |
I took a quick look at it and have seen this before along with many other programs. There is nothing wrong with it if followed using the program and weight loads recommended. The thing is again, it's a different program. It's breaking down the workouts to smaller muscle groups and using much lighter weight loads. If you do it as prescribed fine, but if you add the extra workouts to let's say a typical 4-day split where you are lifting close to max you are well exceeding what they are recommending. Again, many well constructed programs work if you follow them properly but, taking part of one program and adding it to parts of other programs don't usually work well.
