Rea emphasizes overall health as much as he does gaining muscle. The crazy things he suggests..are what probably every top pro are doing. And...with the whole idea on shorter cycles...Rea believes that any cycle lasting longer than around 6 weeks...will saturate the body to much..and his philosophy is that for every "action"(doing steroids) there is a "reaction"(i.e.estrogen related sides/liver damage/etc.) and when doing the longer cycles..the reactions out weigh the actions...if you get what i'm saying. His protocols do sounds extreme...especially when it comes to site-injections...but none of us would be here if we werent' extreme!! Great book..and i read it everyday...cause it is a very tough read.
What top pro's go on for only 6 weeks? None that I see. Toney Freeman isn't working with him anymore and I don't consider him a top pro anyway. I respect Rea's intelligence, I just don't agree with his theories. Chad doesn't advocate short cycles either. Ronnie doesn't use 6 weeks cycles. I can guarantee that. He takes several months off after the O and doesn't even train. After that it's 9 month run to the O.
