I'd say either this is the advanced version (so-called dual factor) and he has it set up wrong or it needs to be redesigned to incorporate more recovery within the week. It's going to be hard to progress in a week to week way doing 5x5 (sets accross) on MON and FRI. Although I'd say this IS possible except that the wednesday volume is pretty high for that.
Agreed. I'd say that bench and rows should be a 1x5 or 3x5 one day and then the 5x5 on the other day with squats being a 1x5 on the bench/row 5x5 day. Or the MP should be a 3x5 or 3x3 and wednesdays squat with reduced intensity. Still need more info from the OP but out of the gate those would be my suggestions.
