Wolf,

No worries. This is a volume about on par with what I can get through in an hour (including all of my setup and tear down times). Time is a limiting factor to me, and honestly I have found that I get more out of putting more work into a few exercises as opposed to a little work into a lot of exercises.

Might not hold true for everyone, but it gives one option.

I will also say that My own volume is set up this way because I do work out 6 days a week (4 weight and 2 GPP/cardio), with one workout being my strongman training (which lasts upwards of three hours most Saturdays) so through the week I try to put in the work I need and skip the icing.

So I can understand Wolf's comment. Even so, I would suggest that if someone were to do this program they should start out as written, and perhaps add in additional sets of the listed exercises, or additional exercises every couple weeks as necessary. I would never suggest that this is more than a basic skeleton framework. I haven't really even addressed progression other than to give the basic "do more" guidance. In the beginning, it can be that simple. It isn't until later that some more complex progression is REALLY needed, IMO. Not to say you can't make it complex from the start, you can. But is it more effective than simply adding weight workout to workout? I can't say that I think it is.

Of course there are people that react very well to high volume, but my body doesn't work that way, so I don't tend to start at that point when making suggestions. I've always found that it is easy enough to add a little more than to try and back track from "too much."

Just my two cents
