    The workout should last no longer than 45 minutes! Plan your rest between sets accordingly so that you finish in this time period. Studies have shown that after 47 ? minutes of intense weight training, your cortisol levels shoot up. This means that the longer you workout AFTER 47 minutes, the LESS results you will get and the more likely you will overtrain. So get in the gym, lift hard, stay focused, and get out.

    The most important thing is that you lift to absolute FAILURE! This is not an option. It is almost 100% necessary to have a workout partner. If you need to get 8 - 10 reps, choose a weight that allows you to get 8 - 10 reps? but not even ONE more.

    The above absolutely wreaks of complete and utter bullsh!t.

    Which is more likely to cause overtraining...

    -Lifting every single set to failure
    or....
    -spending more than 47 minutes in the gym

    Do peopel who write this stuff actually believe what they're saying or are they jst trying to get themselves out there as new and innovative??

    Thanks for the replies lads. It really annoys me, because for people like me who dont know as much as you guys these type of things could waste so much time for people.

    What im trying to say is, if I didnt ask my question I would have done this workout thinking that it was going to be great.
