summer shredden with Ironflex

That's at the high end of prehypertension right? I tend to go more on the low side of normal. Around 108-112/ 65. Makes worrying about high BP on cycle not a big deal.

I just pulled my original Nintendo out of the closet and was teaching my 4 yo daughter how to play Duck Hunt a couple weeks ago. Made me chuckle at how cheesie the graphics are/were! Lol! Of course, then we had to play Super Mario Bros.!

I had to laugh at the 2 button controllers too! I haven't played video games in a long time. Like back when PlayStation first came out and a couple years after, long time. Lol! Wish I still had my original Atari and Sega just for mementos.

Well even poliquin only recommended 26 sets with GVT and he only recommended it be done for compound exercises. He also recommended relatively high weight, 60% of 1 RM.

I feel like you'd get better results with fewer sets and higher weight, regardless of your goals. Even the bbs who use ludicrously high volume like kai greene use pretty insane weight at that volume.

True, however I am taking a slightly different approach to try and reduce complete rest days. With the weight I think I am about right on point with the 60% of max weight on most of the lifts. I wish I had the means to be on the Kai Green level, Ya know?
 
To be on kais level you simply must focus on stretching and contracting the muscle to the fullest, with the highest weight you can do so perfectly.
Oh..and you have to be a freakin monster...that to.
I really enjoyed the train with Kai videos

I think you're going to really get worse results with this program than if you lifted with more intensity. You can avoid complete rest days by doing metabolic conditioning on them.

You ever look at FST7 training?? I've done it before and just starting it up again. Take a look at it, if you want I can give you a copy :)

I would love it. I am always into learning new styles and the science behind them.

So what would you recommended as far as movements and rep scheme for something like this?

Fst-7 would be a great way to do it, another would be a HIT based workout, like the one I'm currently using. You could set it up as a 5 day split if you want.

Here's a sample leg workout that I'll do today, which is only 5 warmup and 5 work sets, it uses my weights so you can scale to meet your goals:

Squat:
Warmup 135 x 8, 225 x 8, 315 x 8
Work set #1: drop set no rest, except time to remove plates; ideally your spotter would pull them off and you don't need to rerack:
Squats 405 to failure, remove 2 plates, squat 315 to failure, remove plates, squat 225 to failure, remove plates, squat 135 to failure, remove plates, squat bar to failure.

Deadlift:
Warmup 225, 315 x 8
Same deal as above starting at 405; I stop at 135 though, no point in deadlifting the bar IMO.

Leg press:
Drop set as above, starting at 10 plates.

Leg curl:
Drop set as above, ideally you'd have a plate loaded leg curl and can start at 4-5 plates, but if not a machine is fine too.

Seated calf:
Same as above starting at 5-6 plates.

That should work legs pretty good for 5 reps...

You can design similar workouts as these for back, arms, chest, shoulders.
 
So the idea is to start at close to max weight and work down to warm up? Sounds exhausting, I like it!

Yeah, basically you are doing a drop set with no rest, so you'll do 405 to failure, lower the weight to 315 and immediately do more reps, which you should be able to do bc you've dropped the weight, etc. it greatly increases the intensity of your workouts.
