this isn't true

he prescribed that one keep the rep range @ 6-20 reps, and for upper body to keep the rep range @ 6-12 reps, and he also said that one can go as low as 4 reps (occasionaly), but to be very careful with that, because of the increased likelyhood of injury due to using heavier training loads

It has nothing to do with what I stated.

how do you figure?

you said... "by gradually increasing repetitions with constant weight without ever having to do actual lift with heavier loads"

AJ was all about increased training loads, that was his major gospel in fact

One system out of many. it all comes down to genetics, they ultimately determine how big you will be

AJ was a smart guy who marketed his product very wisely

You haven't read what he wrote, have you? He stated that after reaching point of strength when increasing loads becomes dangerous you should start increasing repetitions to achieve more strength.

Hmm... so Jones could have been a liar too?

Everyone lies, that's a given when it involves humans  :P

I've always liked AJ. I don't know if he was a genius, but he was definitively very smart in a training world full of dumb asses.
I've read plenty of his writings and they definitively influenced the way I train.
Good video.

it's Ironical for me, because I used to think dj181 was the biggest moron on this site, until I had the pleasure of "debating" deceiver for a bit, and he revealed an even more idiotic view of life

he did say that

he said humans are rotatory animals

and there for barbell weightlifting movements destroy your skeleton

and the only safe way is nautilus equipment

What he said is

Humans need nautilus machines, because he doesn't get paid if you buy a barbell

A throw back to the Industrialists of the 19th century such as Williams Randolph Hearst in that Arthur Jones earned huge sums of money and spent huge sums of money.

Nice. I was just checking- I went to several of Gary's seminars and have been to the "shop". He's a good dude. He has some great Dad stories. ;D

I'll simply say that Gary and Author DID NOT get along. . . or at least that's the way it sounds when Gary talked about "lawsuits" etc.
