    I agree with most of this. Though the once a week bodypart bro split is not exactly pointless, just not optimal from an unassisted standpoint. You can recruit such a regimen with good results if you do strength+hypertrophy in one session, but it still probably does not beat out upping frequency.

    You're right, I exaggerated. Many have seen excellent results from such a program and I'd be lying if I didn't admit that is fun to beat down on your chest or back for one whole session. However in the context of an individual experiencing constant DOMS on such a program, of which I know many, it is absurd since it is unnecessary and does not contribute to gains :)

    Lots of water. Stretching/foam roller. Walk. Hit the pool. I also love to hit the steam room. Also, I use the handicap stalls for at least two days. Glutes day+DOMS=my butt not wanting to sit on a toilet seat.

    That is a good idea.:laugh:
