i have arnolds encylopedia of modern body building and it gives examples of begginner and advanced workouts. In the work outs he hits every muscle group three times a week very hard i dont see how this does not fall into overtraining. He clearly new what he was doing and it worked but all any one talks about today is how less is more.
Here is an example of the begginner one or what he calls level 1 which looks like a lot. He says every set it to failure too.
Also says to do 5 sets 8 - 12 reps unless otherwise specfiied
