Default A little confused on the Eternal Beginner program and FL-I

I've decided to follow the Eternal Beginner program this year, and I am near the end of FL-I. On page 214 it says, "Do each of the workouts six times, alternating between them..." So, there are 2 workouts, do them each 6 times, that's a total of 12 workouts.

On p 193, in the description of the Eternal Beginner program, it says to do FL-I 3 workouts a week for 6 weeks (weeks 6-11). That's a total of 18 workouts.

Am I missing something here? Where do the additional 6 workouts come from? I just noticed this because on my workout calendar, I shouldn't be done with FL-I for 2 more weeks, but according to FL-I, I only have one more workout to go!

No, you're not missing anything. That has been called into question several times.

I go with the one that provides more work, thus, three workouts each.
