I suck at making my own routines, I've used a few workouts from there in the past, and to be honest with you, some of my best results have come from stuff I've picked up over there. I figure for a 4-6 week routine, I'm familiar with the exercises, and it looks like something I can make some progress on so it's worth a month, month and a half of my life. Not saying it will work for me, but without trying it how will I know?
I'm curious, why the doubts?

I 'm just skeptical of doing any routine that isn't at least slightly tailored to your own specific needs. I also usually question any routine that has so much isolation work. Not because isolation is such a terrible thing, but rather because most people I know don't really need to use their time on it. I'm also extra careful with the volume of direct shoulder work. Don't forget that with every bench press and row, you're also using the delts. So many people have shoulder/thoracic issues that pounding away on the shoulders tends to lead to injuries.
But hell, when it comes down to it, I'm just another guy on the internet (like funkyboy) giving his opinion. If you've gotten good results there before and feel comfortable with it, then go for it! (I'm not being sarcastic either. There aren't many set and fast "rules"!)
