Maybe Miguel can comment and help you - He has the most knowledge on
Casler style workouts and I believe still trains that way

Hi guys I have decided to to try a new workout. I found the following
workout by John Casler I like the look of it but thought Id see if any
one can shed some light on it for me.
Mon= Chest and back {including torso and low back} Tues= Rest Wed= Legs
and Torso/Abs thurs= Rest Friday= Arms and shoulders.
Sat= Rest
Sun= Rest
"Repeat. This shedule allows for brutal workouts, with one week rest
{but as you can see not total rest} between body parts"
I would skip low back and I am not sure what he would suggest for Torso?
Also I am not sure how many exercises he would recommend per body part?
I am not sure if by the following he means 3 sets for every exercise or
to alternate between them so one week you do 20 reps the next 10 etc?
" I would put these 3 rep ranges in each session as RMs"
1. First set is 20 rm
2. Second set is 10 rm
3. Third set is 5-6 rm
"This can be adjusted for the exercise or body area, and produces a very
effective Direct compensation in both strength and hypertrophy."
I am looking forward to trying this after my current lack of progress.
So thanks for any opinions.
Jeremy
