Well, I'm a newcomer to this board, but not to weights by any stretch. I've used Starr's program since the 70's, and I see you basically fine tuned it way past Starr ever went with it. Just a few notes though, Starr recommended a down, pump, or hypertrophy set (whichever nomenclature you want to use) of 10 hard reps with a reduced weight after your last work set(s) of 3-5. Said it help with recuperation, and maybe a bit with hypertrophy. I used it and agree. Another form of this is JV Askems theme of the same thing
