Ok I premise that I've only read the program and as others have pointed out many of his justifications are BS. But yes, it does have a sensible choice of exercises but just not enough sets/reps. Things like 3x3 chin-ups seem ridiculously little even if weighed. I usually do 4x10 at bodyweight...
Was at the gym the other day and saw a girl being shown her new program by one of the instructors. The instructor took her to the squat rack. She was a short girl and the bar was well above her head. But instead of adjusting the bar first her she just lifted it overhead, placed it on her neck...
Are you just repeating whatever you hear on tv? Marquez had been studying Paquiao and trying to land that punch for 36 rounds. It was just a matter of time.

I tried to do a crossfit inspired circuit every morning, while sparring kickboxing and mma every evening. I dug a pretty deep hole for myself but my body snapped about month in so couldn't take it too far. The worst was probably when I first moved to Japan and I started training 4-5 hours a day...

For years I used to run/cycle/sprint/circuit for conditioning. It would suck up alot of energy and valuable training time while having only a small carryover to my performance on the mats/ring.
