well if you increase the frequency you must decrease the volume..ie..if you do a 1 bodypart a week split and do this for chest
4 sets 10 bench-press
4 sets 10 dips
4 sets 10 incline-bench
now you want to go to fullbody 3 x a wk so you increase the frequency but lower volume like this.
mon 4 sets 10 bench-press
wed 4 sets 10 dips
fri 4 sets 10 incline-bench
you are still doing the same amount of sets over 7 days but you are taking more advantage of the anobolic windows

Agreed, and think this is the largest argument against training each body part one time each week.

Scouring through the Waterbury posts, 'The Anti-Bodybuilding Hypertrophy Program: Break the "Rules" and Gain Real Muscle!' seems to come conceptually close to my type of programs in basic format. I think people ought to look at this to re-examine what it is they do and why.

I find it interesting how he is taking old time principles and putting "modern" data with it. In my opinion, (and I belive my opinion is simply fact, but we all seem to think that way), he is learning as time goes on that the modern methodology and thinking simply has to be dropped, the more he examines "real life" training. He mentions in later articles how much he is learning by watching gymnasts, farmers, etc.

My thinking is that if you give him 2-3 more years, he will be training old time ONLY like I do, and it would end up taking him 4 degrees and 7 years of studying everyday people to figure it out. If that is what it takes for us to realize that mainstream methodology is wrong, how much propaganda has been swallowed? Personally, I would like to see more people looking at his articles and considering his perspective.
