Aaaahhhh, you disagreed with Berardi's article. They both have the same basic philosophy. I'm trying to figure out what part your not getting. There's hundreds of studies and published papers that proves everypart of your arguements incorrect and anyone else who has an arguement refuting it. PLUS, unless for health reasons only, my client do HIIT.
Berardi is alot more open minded and diversed than cosgrove. ( and what berardi article are u talking about ? ) I agree with 99% of what he writes, the dude is a genius. Cosgrove i dont agree with.
Ok just for a quick example, i was reading a "rountable discussion" on t-nation. Where cosgrove melted down and told christian thibs that he was a "trader" because he now recommends split training instead of full body. Cosgrove thinks fullbody is the only way to go. using predominantly compound movements, and that this is the best for everyone.
if this was true everyone woudl do it. myself i CANNOT do fullbody training. There is no way, that someone can sustain the same amount of effort doing six compound movements in one workout like cosgrove recommends. I could go on and on, but you dont understand my argument. I said hiit is great, but it has its place. Just like fullbody training has its place.
