I talked to Chad yesterday. It's on press, and should be bound and ready to go within two weeks. Once he has a firm date, he'll announce that he's ready to take pre-orders.
I can't wait for you guys to get your hands on this book, and to try out the Total Strength Program.
yeah, I too have been anxiously awaiting Chad's book. I can't wait until it comes out. . . really looking forward to the new program. "Total Strength" sounds good to me.
Right now I'm in the middle of Strength 1 from NROL, and I'm so impressed that I'll be following that up with Strength 11 and Strength 111. But after that there is no way in hell I'm NOT doing Chad's strength program. I can't wait

I've made some huge mistakes, but they were necessary, because without them I wouldn't have learned anything.

Man I know how bad Hypertrophy 1 is, I can't imagine doing #11 and #111, i'm personally dreading 2!

I read in CW's locker room on t-nation that he was working on a high frequency strength training program for t-nation. I hope i understood correctly and i've been looking forward to it for a few months now.

This isn't the high-frequency project. This book fleshes out his methodology on balancing volume and intensity for various goals, managing recovery, getting nutrition right, and effectively sequencing all his previous T-nation programs for different goals.
That's all in the first part. Then the last part is the 12-week Total Strength Program, which is really three programs. There's one each for bench press, squat, and deadlift, as well as combined programs for working on multiple lifts at the same time.
Getting back to high frequency: Chad and I started working on this book -- Muscle Revolution -- about a year and a half ago, shortly after we met at JP's, and long before he started promoting high-frequency training on T-nation.
His idea is that the high-frequency concept is worthy of its own book, and that could very well be the follow-up to this one.
