And as far as the partial reps part of it keep in mind that I am not sayng that partials are completely useless only that his premise of partials being the only way you'll ever have to train is.

Here is a basic rule to live by when it comes to training programs....if you see the word "REVOLUTIONARY" that can directly translate to "BULLSHIT".
