Interesting that you’ve run JP’s program, Altamir. I thought it was damn near impossible, actually, if you genuinely took all the sets to failure, as he advises. I was a bit disappointed by that ebook if I’m honest.
But - while I’m obviously not Scott - to address the question of why FT is set up the way it is, at least as I understand it, its a way of bringing together all the different means of achieving hypertrophy (high frequency, mechanical loading, metabolic stress, stretching, a progressive overload element and exercise variation) in a way that is manageable and not too hard on the joints or CNS.
Specifically, if you bring all set types together on 1 day then you remove the daily undulating periodisation element
