I have been working out for 11 months now, but some of that was with poor nutrition and poor workout plans. However I have managed to forge a bit of muscle and now feel confident with compound movements. I used isolation movements first (I know I did it backwards) But in all honesty I was a bit afraid of things like the bench, squat, and deadlift. I recently did a ppl split and feel pretty good with compound movements. I do a lot of volume and I noticed on riptoes starter workout its not. I'm not at all saying I know more then him I'm just afraid of not doing the volume. I've been working out for a while now and was wondering if I should do his workout and incorporate some of his accessories such as chins, pull ups, dips, etc. Does anyone have a similar experience or can personally account for success of this program, any advice?

Things worth your time to forum search and understand (for new people): CNS fatigue vs muscle fatigue, deloading, refeed, intensity vs volume, going to muscle failure, overreaching, overtraining, chronic fatigue, recovery.
