Just in general, mainly about only using so few exercises though.

Research by Russian scientists (Nikituk & Samoilov), however, has shown that there are at least two different types of muscle hypertrophy: sarcomere hypertrophy and sarcoplasmic hypertrophy, the first one associated with growth of the contractile components of the muscle fibers (the actin and myosin complex) and the latter with growth of the structures supporting and surrounding the contractile elements (the sarcoplasmic reticulum and sarcoplasm).
Sarcomere hypertrophy, maximally stimulated by Olympic weightlifting style training, results in significant increases in strength, unlike the sarcoplasmic variety, which is markedly increased by bodybuilding style training. The former, therefore, is of greater relevance to the weightlifter or any other athlete who needs functional hypertrophy for improving sporting performance, with the latter form offering minimal sporting benefits, unless sheer bulk is needed for superiority, as is often the case in bodybuilding posing and sumo wrestling. Obviously, then, one would be wary of relying largely on bodybuilding methods as a form of supplementary training for other sports.
---Just proof that you need to follow body building type workouts.

whatever you decide to do, i would suggest this one thing...
whatever routine you decide to follow, stick with it at least 12 weeks. keep a journal of your workouts, don't make any changes, don't do any adjustments.
Follow a similar routine for your diet and supplementation, this is the only way to determine what works well for you. it may seem like a waste if your not making any gains, but stick with it, then make changes after 12 weeks if neccesary.

I agree with that for the most part. The back and thighs are a bit more complex, but realistically do you really need more than 2 different lifts for most muscle groups? Biceps, triceps, pecs, calves and traps are very simple muscles working different "angles" doesn't do very much for them, nor really hit different fibers.
