I definitely will. I have a feeling it is going to be just what the Dr. ordered... In this case that is both figuratively and literally I guess.

Alex Kikel is who turned me onto it while I was working with him. I asked him where he got some of his ideas from and or different books I could read to learn more on the design of some of the more joint friendly methods of hypertrophy. We were focusing more on strength at the time. I was building up to start a powerlifting meet prep. So the Load sets for the big 3 were of higher intensity, not taken to failure and straight sets, more along the lines of Powerlifting set up. However it was high frequency, and we were doing high rep pumps sets, and muscle rounds for those same groups on different days as well. It was the Muscle Rounds and the Pump sets that got me asking more questions. Anyway he spoke very highly of you, your methods and your book. So I knew I was going to check it out when I put my focus back on hypertrophy.

I will say that reading this book has me excited and thinking I can get myself back into competition form without completely breaking my body down. I gave up on bodybuilding for a while because so many repetitive movements under heavy load all the time just tore me up. Even powerlifting was easier on me due to less overall volume. However I think this is going to resolve most of those problems and I love the intensity of it!

This is all great to hear - and you've not even really gotten going yet! (Very glad Alex got you going on that direction.)

That's saying a lot if you were getting that broken down from whatever kind of bodybuilding training you were doing. More is obviously not better.
