good post Eric
sometimes, in a way, Chad Waterbury isnt completely full of shit...in the sense that he has criticized the bill starr 5x5 method for not having the right amount of variations. he says that the lack of exercise selection will result in either major imbalances and possible injuries in the long run.
but on the other hand, chad's programs arent that bad. i am referring to his strength building programs - not the shit like ABBH 1 and ABBH 2, etc... what i would like to say however is that while Chad's principles are sound (like strength oriented training, more exercise selection, high frequency training, etc) one huge drawback of all of his strength oriented programs is lack of flexibility in the sense that once u complete those 4 weeks of that program, its tough to progress on and u cant even change it up without completely basterdizing the original program.
but what i have found with his training is that if u use some of the stuff he writes and put it together in a completely different program, it could work wonders.
