Opinions? Effective? Waste of time? A good short term change?

    If you truly care about training, it's a waste of time. Yes, you will respond initially to the high volume the first weeks and then undoubtedly will fall hard from not being able to recover.

    Other than programs like the original 5/3/1 with extremely low volume at a useful intensity or TM which is also just crammed with excessive volume for what's appropriate for most lifters to respond. This is next in line for crap programming for any natural lifter or anybody who is looking to progress efficiently long term.
