The are different training programs somewhat similar to the one(s) mentioned over at T-nation. And they have been around for quite some time. Wave training could be thrown into that mix quite well I believe.
That pre-warmup/working set combo before the rest-pause, short range 3 rep, tempo change thing has been done in many forms , usually with good results. Though 4 to 6-8 weeks may be the max time. After that, a week (at lease) rest than on to another less demanding program on the CNS for awhile. In any workout program the CNS should be considered. It may be the key to recovery and making steady gains in size and strength for most guy's. As the article suggest, working two or three times a day can be rewarding if the CNS is not over stressed. The old Soviet and eastern Block nations did that for years while Olympic lifting training. Their records speak for it's self. The bottom line is to never go to the point of failure in any training workout. Not going to complete failure should not be mistaken for not working ultra hard. Do check you strength on any one lift, but only once every 3rd to 4th week.
One thing about T-nation is that they keep trying to come up with new slants on older programs. That's good. And some of their articles and writers are outside the normal box on training ideas. Also good, we all could use that from time to time.. Poliquin being one of the better writers. Tate, etc gives good advice also.
Only thing that I may question about T-nation is that about every 3 to 6 months they come out with yet another Super Duper supplement, so much improved and better than their last Super Duper supplement. Guess you do have to stay in business and make a buck somehow. Though, to their credit, lots of free information over there. Good Luck
