I don't know where people got the idea that TVP was the best program out there. Do you know anyone who has actually done it? IDC about the fake testimonials luke has on his site. At least with VJB, I know people who have gotten results from it. More days in the gym does not equal more results.
Agree that more time spent in the gym does not necessarily provide greater results. There is some positive correlation up to a certain point, but after a while there will be diminishing and possibly negative returns. Everyone needs their rest. Also, some say that the more elite you are and the more intensive the training, the more rest that you need between training days.


I find the level of self-promotion a little discomforting in the TVP marketing. It is also really expensive - I assume that's why people think that it is the best program or the biggest rip-off. Personally, I have no view for or against it as I don't know what is in it. Interested in knowing how the training is organised though. From what I have seen of VJB training logs, that seems to be a sensible system. There's a decent general strength focused element to VJB which I guess helps the majority of people.
