We've actually been over most of this before. I don't even know exactly what Jags is doing in terms of sets and reps (i.e. volume) and all I know is a list of exerices with a once every 7 days frequency. You're advising him to go from that to once every 10 days frequency with what seems like less volume. Except perhaps for the fact that you've got a separate day for direct arm work which makes up for some of it.

I'm sorry but I can't see the logic in advising less frequency and volume at this point. Once a week is already on the edge of effectiveness for most people and even less frequency than that is just completely sub par with few exceptions in terms of protocol. The fact is that the majority of trainees will do better with even more frequency....2 or even 3 times a week. Ultra low frequency high volume work only works best for a relatively few people with favorable genetics, or juicers or absolute beginners.

My advice would be to keep doing what you are doing, Jags, if it is working.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
