Actually there is a method to Ronnie's madness. It was covered quite well in an issue of IronMan magazine. Basicaly Ronnie keeps his reps along the Point of Maximum Force, or a hair short of bottom and a few hairs short of lock out. On some reps he does the bottom 2/3 of the rep only. This is called Max Force Point Overload and believe me, it works. I wrote a program that boosts natural GH and IGF-1 using a lot of those same principles Ronnie uses and I have had the best gains of my life in the last three months. It hurts, and it looks like mini pumps or partial reps to the gym members where I work out and at first all of them tried to correct me. But not anymore. Im making better progress than all of them, honestly.
But to also point out something P-Funk said (and not just because he's a hero of mine) with the right diet, you can train like a complete moron and still make gains. I dont like how Jay trains at all. His video and rep execution was also covered and analyzed by the guys at IronMan, and they came a hair close to actauuly saying how his training wasnt as effective or efficient as Ronnies. As a matter of fact, the used large scale diplomacy to insinuate that.
There's something called X-reps that work along the same principles as well. You can read about it at http://www.x-rep.com. I highly suggest anyone that is experiencing plateaus or is simply bored with what they're doing to check it out.
