And Brad...since you planted a seed of doubt in my otherwise feeble mind, I decided to go back and check the suggested workout plan. I though I had read it right, but you made me doubt my memory ( I am getting old and the gingko is running out). Here is an excerpt from the article:

"#8. Super-Intense Time-Compression Workouts
You take your first workout at 9:00 AM and perform three supersets with barbells. At 9:30 AM you do two supersets with dumbbells. Every even and odd hour you continue to do a 3 *supersets methodic of barbell movements, and every even and odd half-hour you exercise with the dumbbells for a 2 **supersets methodic. The last workout will occur at 5:30 PM.

Each of these mini-workouts
will take
approximately
4-7 minutes to complete.

9:00 AM SUPER SET:
B1: Classic Standing Two-Hands Barbell Curl : 3 sets 4-6 reps each set
B2: Standing EZ-Bar French Press: 3 sets 4-6 reps each set

Methodic: *Positive Phase Speed Reps/Slow Negative Return Supersets. Rest - pause 1.5 minutes between each of the 3 supersets. "

Now, I read that as three supersets and with 4-6 reps and being a high-intensity kind of guy, I took that as to failure. I mean, why else would you want to do 4-6 reps...maybe with a 25 lb dumbell for an ego boost?

Soory about being defensive...just trying to say that there is no magic pill. ;)
