So deadlift, bench press, squat, row, and do sit ups 3 times a week? No. I understand the need to learn new lifts by getting the form down first, but that's ridiculous.

He obviously didn't...it's basically the bill starr/madcow intermediate routine..at the beggining.

5 times a week? not so much a fan or believer.

No, it says squat or dead. This isn't my kind of workout because the loads are too light. 3 times a week would be ok but 5 times is too much IMO.

I think Mike Mahler knows what he's talking about. A lot of people would do well to listen to him.

I'm currently doing Bill Starr's 5x5.. Squat and Bench 3 times a week, Row twice and dead once.

I used Korte's 3x3 to prepare for my powerlifting comp. and saw some great gains squatting, benching and deadlifting 3x a week.
