Thanks madcow2 - your comments and input are highly valued. We are definitely in agreement on everything you said. I already have him doing the PS, great exercise (I do it, too) :)

I guess that is up to him if he wants to do a journal, I don't have the time to post journals for all my clients. :) I'll let you know if he does, though - and also how it works out for him after the first 4 week phase.

I'm sorry, but I'd have to disagree. There is just no evidence of such a systemic response, although there is an overall growth effect from the direct stress squats and deadlifts put on upper body muscle - this is not hormonal, though. This BB will be doing his deadlifts, the only question here...

I should add in that this is a pretty advanced power/bodybuilder weighing 250lbs at 5'10" and 10ish% bodyfat currently. He was a powerlifter in his younger days, WSB experience, and dabbling with some various routines over the years with periods of great progress. He is strong in deadlifts...

Ok, I've read the first 10 pages of this thread, but I was hoping to get a simple answer since I'm too lazy to read another 38 pages right now... :) Both the Pendlay routine and this routine seems very focused on building the Squats. Nothing wrong with that, and understandable since Pendlay...
