Occam's Protocol Frequency

[tementaXCD]

Hi

I'm confused about when to add additional recovery days to Occam's Protocol. The directions seem to be contradictory.

Under Occam's Frequency it says "as soon as you have a workout where more than one exercise has stalled...but not before, increase to four days between workouts. Continue adding rest as needed to resolve plateaus...

Under If You miss your day or miss your target repetitions it says if you don't complete all of the reps for the first exercise to pack up and go home.

How can more than one exercise stall when there are only two exercises and you leave after the first one if you don't hit your reps? Can someone shed some light on this?

I've never even heard of Occam's Protocol.

Occam's Protocol seems definitely confusing.

I train each muscle group once each week, with the exception of calves. Workouts last between 45 minutes and 1 hour with no fooling around.

I had to look it up. Maybe this helps...They lost me on those lame workouts and gallon of milk a day. these workouts are like the fad diets they come and go not really better than what we already know. Are you new to the gym?

Bro, lol. Keep things simple. Train hard and heavy with weight that you can control for 10-12 reps per set. Eat enough cals to grow but not so much that you putting on garbage weight. Cardio is a must IMO even when bulking, keeps your body running on all cylinders.

Those are the rules you should follow, not gimmicks.
