Max OT Training Routine; any thoughts?

Hi, I've recently come across this method of training which focuses on low reps to overload the muscle and enhance growth.

I've done 3 workouts now, Chest, Legs, Arms & Abs. I'm going to follow it for the 12 weeks and let the results hopefully speak for themselves. But the style of workout does suit me. Mental tiredness is something I struggle with so this helps me focus in short bursts.
Has anyone else done this before?
Thanks

There is no single, perfect weight training system that will work best for all bodybuilders. Some of the best champs do a lot of volume and don't actually lift really heavy weights for their size - like Jay Cutler. Some guys do a more "Max OT"-type routine - like Dorian Yates who only did one "all out" work set for each exercise. Some guys arguably do both - Ronnie Coleman uses extremely heavy weights and does several sets of several exercises.
Generally, most great bodybuilders and great bodybuilding coaches lean a little more towards volume and doing lots of sets with little rest between them - Kris Gethin's DTP training, and Hany Rambod's FST-7.
So by all means try out the Max OT training if you think it suits you but if you're not getting good gains after four or five weeks, then this may not be the system for you.
