Judging the guy on the whole of his contributions, I think Isratel has been net-positive for the stuff we all like (lifting, building muscle, etc....).

Listen, brother, it ain't that complicated. Just train. It doesn't matter how you train.
Train like a pussy. (Vince Taylor, Paul Dillet)
Train like a berseker. (Ronnie and some others.)
Low-Volume HIT. (Mentzer and some other guys.)
Moderate-Volume HIT. (Yates and many others in the late 90s.)
Volume training. (The "standard" bodybuilding routine.)
Extreme volume training. (2x/day; some of the Venice Beach guys did this because they loved the gym.)
Instinctive training. (Train whatever and however you feel like training that day.)
And I could go on all day. It doesn't matter. It all works. Find what you like, what gets you into the gym, and stick with it.
B-but if you don't find your maximum adaptable volume you're leaving muscle gains on the table!!
Not really. Muscle growth is 60% genetics/drugs, 30% diet, 10% everything else. You need to train, but over a sufficiently long time horizon
how you train doesn't matter much for hypertrophy.
