I read all 12 weeks. It's not really a 12 week program....its more like 12 chapters to read. It goes into workout structure, set structure, different programs, nutrition, supplementing, resting principles, etc. I read the whole thing and took all that knowledge and applied it to a schedule that I liked. I picked my own exercises for each muscle group.

Week one pretty much is the routine structure then the other weeks or chapters give you other things to work on such as warm ups, eating and nutrition etc. They do it in stages like that because you start off with the workout which is a big change in itself, then you add to the change through the course of time so it isn't a night and day change.
I use the workout structure as a basis for my own routine, but I just started using their platform because my schedule wasn't getting the results I wanted.

I used a modified max-ot schedule. Instead of one muscle group per day and each muscle group once a week, I did two groups per day, and each group twice a week. I personally saw better gains that way, and it worked for me. I gained 9lbs in a month. I used the same set structure and warm up structure, just did everything twice.

My problem is I tend to break routine a lot so I need a set schedule so I don't get sidetracked or skip a large number of days between workouts
