Periodization works, there's not much debate left about it, IMO. Although not a perfect study (the sample size is small) the results are statistically significant enough to be considered valid. And this isn't even an advanced training split, it's fairly basic. Periodization principles like DUP are likely to yield even more significan results in highly trained individuals.
