One last sidenote, the trainer (Cosgrove) who designed the workout programs from NROL is not the same person who wrote the book (Schuler) that you think you're qualified to debunk. So simply ignore the book and the "theories" you disagre with and use the routines since you already paid for it. The are proven to work and recommended by thousands and thousands of people on every fitness forum and website. Also I recommend purchasing Starting Strength if you are concerned about form in squats and deadlifts (and any other lift). Also with form...you can have every lifter read SS and watch every single Rippetoe video and people will still have questions or do things incorrectly in the beginning. What do you want them to do, devote 20 pages to 2 exercises?

You could be right I could be confused but I don't think I am. However I admit this is entirely possible.
I understand that Cosgrove designed the workouts and I have no problem with them. It is extremely likely I will come back to them once I have lost sufficient weight. I enjoyed the break in routine a lot and think I would enjoy the challenge of the other programs. This has nothing to do with why I am done with NROL for now.
I don't think it is necessary to devote 20 pages to 2 exercises but since they are so important and easy to do wrong (causing injury) I would think they could have (at minimum) had a few more pictures of the model going through the exercises.
