    The leg workout in the first one is overkill, you'll tax your CNS out like no other doing that much leg work

    It seemed that way, I'm just having a hard time finding me a good solid muscle building routine. I'm looking to start the Vince Gironda hormone precursor diet and want to use the best workout with it. I allready follow a primal type eating because I'm 6ft 190 and 18%bf

    which will be absolute bollocks mate. you need to take a simplified approach to your training and put those crappy bb'ing mags in the bin. those workouts are just crazy over training, i wouldnt recommend either
