Curiosity. One tends to think that the more advanced someone gets, the more volume/frequency they would need, but that doesn't seem to be the case most of the time IRL (as you pointed out). I am on my first week of fortitude training utilizing tier I, and went in thinking "this is not a lot of volume", but I had such a sense of urgency to really crush the working sets, that I really milked them for all they were worth and got more out such "little volume" than I ever really have before. I could only imagine how draining the tier 3 (and made up levels above that which I alluded to being used by pros 
) and turbo are.
Its the same with nutrition as well. YOu always imagine every single pro just packing away tons of food, but some of them eat relatively little compared to their size. In fact, I always assumed from daves interviews, that he isn't a huge eater, and eats a LOT of protein (Which could be just that, an ASSumption)
Edit : twoquestions while I have your attention. I understand the processs of utilizing several sets to warm up for the loading sets, and I assume this applies to the muscle round sets, but what about pumping sets? Also, Pump exercises are constantly rotated, but should the loading set exercises stay the same as long as you keep progressing on them, or do you recommend rotating those each week between several exercises (exercise A, B, C, rotated and used once each 3 weeks for example). I used to change exercises around too much, and it was definitely harder to actually gauge progression.

A guy who was roughly Jordan's level (Canadian Nationals class winner) could only recover from Tier I, because he trained REALLY hard. One of the fastest rates gain come with Tier I. (He posts here and might see this - an older bloke from the UK.)
The more advanced someone is, the harder they can often train, which means a lower volume Tier in many cases.
Why do you ask?...
