that was the premise behind this kind of training system. i read somewhere(if i can find the source ill post it) that protein synthesis in a particular muscle is spiked for 36 hours after stimulation. assuming that that is true, it made more sense to me to cause minor stimulation, thus low volume, to the muscle so that it grows in small increments more frequently, opposed to doing high volume and expecting a more substantial amount of growth in the week or so i would rest the muscle. and then after this premise popped in my head, i went looking around for similar approaches to this, and i found one on another forum that is virtually exactly how i am doing mine, and everyone who utilizes it swears by it. and squat, you said in one of these more recent posts that this training style would be acceptable(not exact words of course) if one were using exogenous hormones. i am starting a cycle in a few weeks on top of this...but regardless, i am not arguing that your, and the majority of other peoples methods don't work, i am stating that this one may. you have yet to prove to me that what i am going to do WILL NOT work, and if you could show me any published studies that says that the approach i am going to take to training is ineffective i will believe you, but until then i am going to test it. i read a good quote that pertains to different training forms that i find suitable here, "everything works, but only for so long" and the typical high volume low frequency program stopped working, so i am doing the opposite.
