    Me.
    It's pretty effective.
    Don't for Defranco's changed one unless you're aiming for size.

    That's what I never understand about his routines, the whole work up to whatever.

    Do a search for the article on T-Nation.com. They usually post it on the forum so people can ask questions about the routine.

    It doesn't seem like you do enough. Why would you just do bench press on a certain day instead of doing incline and decline on the same day as flat?

    Why would you do incline, decline and flat bench-press all in one day?

    I don't know alot about this so keep that in mind.

    All three work your chest. If you did them on seperate days you would be working your chest three times a week. Seems like a lot.

    That really doesn't answer my question. If you know the answer I would like to hear it.

    Higher frequency = more strength and more hypertrophy (muscle growth), if you're eating at a surplus.

    Flat, decline and incline bench-press work primarily the same muscles, so doing all 3 on the same day is somewhat pointless. Spread throughout the week it gives more variation. Something like Monday - flat dumbbell bench-press, Tuesday - dips, Friday - incline bench-press is what most people do.
