Thanks, Clogston. I also agree that overtraining is basically over-hyped for the most part.

Another part of the workout that is controversial is the pyramid system of lifting. Some people don't understand the benefits of it, but as Avedon explains it enables you to increase weight/ strength while still doing a high number of reps. My set is usually something like 12-10-8-12. I can say that I've never felt more ripped during and after a workout until I started doing pyramid sets. Essentially your gaining strength, burning fat, and increasing lean muscle. You basically end up with a V shape if you do it right ( you need to incorporate an ab workout as well). I am sold after doing it 4 years ago. Can't believe I let myself get back to where I am after putting in all that work
