Hahaha. Obviously you’re all stupid. They speak latin in Scotland!
And I speak bullshit in Australia.

Is that why I can never understand what the hell Steve Erwin is saying when he’s about to pounce on a freakin’ croc, and why he says “CRIKEY!” a lot?
Here’s what they can say in whatever language Alwyn speaks – Bulgarian Split Squats.
They’re everywhere.
I’m sure they’re just fanfuckingtastic, but gawd are they boring. I’m just finishing Fat Loss 1 with good results and see that they are in Fat Loss 2 with pressing DB’s overhead. Ugggghhhhh.
Hey, look, there they are in the Hypertrophy sections too. Oh boy.
Yet, they don’t even appear in Book of Muscle with Ian King…

I found a good basiclog on the jpfitness site. Lou is a contributer there and supposedly has granted permission. It does not have everything plugged in, so you still need the book, but is a perfect template for the workouts
I’m sticking with my full body program twice a week and incorporating some of the core/twisting work from the book on my cardio days. Breaks up the monotony of just running on those cardio days. I actually get to lift a little as part of cardio. Love the woodchoppers.

Just picked this book up yesterday along with my Eng. IV Hnrs summer reading books (hey, if I have to read dracula and oedipus cycle, ya damn right I’m gonna get something as a treat :D).
So far, I’m on chapter 4. I like it so far. I flipped to the workouts real quick to see what they consist of, and they’re really neat. Periodization up the wazoo, big compound lifts, good stuff indeed.
I love Lou Schulers style of writing and Alwyns programs are nice and structured but simple (although, oddly, they’re in split format as opposed to full body, which I thought he hated). Well worth the 25 I paid for at borders though so far…
Finished the book. Good stuff on the whole. I knew most of it, but some tidbits were new. For the most part, this book appeals to me due to the use of periodization (something I have trouble just planning out and setting up).
The only thing I’m confused on is progression? Maybe I missed that part some how, but still a bit fuzzy on that. Maybe I’ll mosey on over to Alwyn’s locker room and see what’s up.

Read Berardi’s recent article on cardio progression and just apply these ideas to TNROL workouts and you should be good to go:
I’ve read the book, transcribed all the workouts into Excel, and I can’t wait until I get started on the programs next week!
Once I started doing the split squats, I quickly realized that my right leg is much weaker than my left. There is some merit to the “functional” stuff. I was a skeptic, but now I like to use some of the exercises. Split squats superset with step-ups are brutal.
