P-Zero Full Body Program Explained

This is a program from the latest Cody's book. Unlike GZCLP, it prioritizes higher volume, and higher variety in exercises. It's in-between powerlifting and bodybuilding, but leans a bit more to bodybuilding, with higher rep ranges.

Make sure to read the book before doing the program! It gives a detailed explanation how things should work
