Most of the expert's books recommend changing routines every few mths to shock your muscles.

no, no they do not. no real expert recommends this at all. not a real expert

now when you are plateaued in an exercise sure, but to "shock" the muscle...yea they are not an expert.


can you rotate through as in conjugate style to keep progress going, absolutely but most are not of the training age to not at least repeat 3 max efforts on a lift in succession. most have never even done a proper Linear progression or a double linear, weekly linear or reverse pyramid dependent style programs before to even contemplate moving to a conjugated style

shortest route is a straight line usually. thats linear. after that, pick whatever way you like but use a program that is proven, dont muddy the water thinking you know better than the guys with 20-30+ years in the trenches.
