I've only read a fraction of the literature out there just to get a foundation of knowledge. But it's appearing more and more that the world of fitness publishing is out there to make a pretty penny, coming out with these new "21st century techniques" like undulating periodization and using a "horizontal push accompanied by horizontal pull" and other gimmicky stuff like that. I do however read articles about effective and safe technique.

Couple of points:
First welcome to the forum. It's been my experience that this is an incredibly knowledgable group that will set you straight. But, this can be a pretty brutal group when they smell blood in the water. I'm thankful for the honesty, because faulty ideas will get shot down pretty quickly. But, it can be offsetting when you're trying to ask for help and all you seem to get is ridicule.
You're right in suggesting that a lot of the products being put out today are gimmicky. However, I'm not sure what is gimmicky about undulating periodization, or push/pull programming.
