This is identical to what I personally do. This is probaly way too much for a beginner or intermediate level lifter to do. I do not recommend this version of the program unless you're bulking and are already a very advanced trainee.
Bald Swordsman is a split on a 10-11 day asynchronous schedule. Trainees need at least a day of rest in between these sessions. Therefore, there is no need to strictly follow the 4 day a week schedule.

Nice and enjoyable split, I will continue untill the end of the year to see if the strength and the size gains will come as expected. For now, great program.

Nice switch up from previous split of upper/lower. Liked the aspect of full body but with a more emphasis on certain muscle group for that day. Already had a pretty good base of conditioning from marathon training and 2 a day weight training sessions for a while now. Decided to split my workouts into morning before work and after work. Great strength gains and muscle gains as well thanks to the extra recovery only working out every other day.

Outstanding programme for building a good base of muscle and work capacity, no muscle groups left out in the cold

Have changed up the program to a six day a week, by moving shoulders, biceps and abs to their own separate days. This means, that I have increased volume, more than it already is. Have never seen better gains. However, I'm doing this at a time of leisure and am unsure if I will be able to sustain when other things in my life start moving. Would probably reduce volume a bit, maybe to that of the original program, but I'm loving it so far.

Great program, I swapped out some of the neck work for more bicep work as I felt the amount of neck work was excessive. But Great program.

Incredible results. You get what you put in, only week 4 and I’ve put on muscle it would normally take me 6 months to gain

Feels amazing so far. Years of strongman training and this is a fresh change after some back issues. Swapped SSB for Hack Squat, don't have one and can't comfortably high bar well still after injury. Love the program!
