"Quincy's" workout plan turned out to be an article to promote this guys company.

what a waste of time, an online muscletech ad.

And his 'workout program' would be overtraining for 95% of the readers on this site.
Of course, if you have his genetics, and his 'supplements', it might work.

Quincy is a hell of a good guy. I had the pleasure of working the Scivation/Primaforce booth with him.

You guys can hate on the article (i'm not much on pure pimping articles myself) but i've been offered sponsorships & positions with other companies that I turned down because of their lack of integrity and downright scam products.

Scivation/Primaforce are definately legit and owned by a good guy.

You guys should check out quincy's site... it's pretty damned cool

overtraining is so overblown. I'm a natural bodybuilder and I used to do those crappy each bodypart 1x a week workout. I couldn't get any of my weakpoints, back or legs to catch up no matter how hard i tried. Then I tried training everything 2x per week and get great results.

heck my legs have grown 2x as much in a year as what they did on my old routine and i do a total of 70 sets per week for them.

Layne remember lifting is just like any other skill. You've been doing it for years so you've built up such a strong endurance and muscular system backed by a central nervous system that can go hard and harder, especially during your prime years( mid 20's). For newer lifters and novices, its usually best to use abbreviated routines because they can't start with such an amazing load like your body can now handle without utterly shutting down.

Think of your body layne as a College basketball player who's put years of hard work and diet into the body and have driven it higher and higher to its utmost physical reaches. No way a middle school player working on having the endurance to perform left handed layups after his suicides would be able to perform anywhere on the same type of level. Its like me doing Anthony's workout so I can hopefully bench 450 within 2 years. Just won't happen, he's built his ligaments, tendons, and matured his muscles over years.

I will agree with you somewhat though i don't nessecarily agree with the analogy. Beginners don't need to perform as much volume or load to generate the muscle damage needed to cause hypertrophy. However the repeated bout effect takes place pretty rapidly which is the reason one needs to constantly try to increase the overload on their muscles whether it be via load, time under tension, or volume.

I will say this:

It clearly says that is HIS workout.

It doesn't say...hey buddy go do my professional bodybuilder workout.

Hope that clears it up.

I disagree, the longer you are in the iron game, the stronger you get, of course, so your poundages go up. The damage you cause to your muscles and the impact of your training on your CNS is greater than that of a beginner, so you should actually adjust your total volume downwards. Increasing your poundages, with good form, and changing your routine often will lead to continued progress.

I actually agree with you- training each bodypart 2X a week, or every 5 days, is superior to training each bodypart only once a week. My comment about overtraining was linked to the total number of sets in Quincy's workout. I believe his training represents overtraining in terms of volume, not frequency. It certainly would for me. But I guess it works for Quincy.

I have to strongly disagree with this. The repeated bout effect is well documented and show that muscles rapidly become resistant to damage and that greater load, volume, or frequency, is needed to cause further damage.
