Depends on many factors such as how many warm up sets you take, sense of urgency between exercises, whether you take 3 minutes of rest versus 5 minutes etc. But each session can be done in under 75 minutes.

The frequency of Olympic lifts doesn’t exceed two days per week in this program and the Olympic lifts are not a priority for the program.

It can be, but it will be very hard.

You can run this entire program with just a barbell, weights, rack, and a bench.

The Ebook will outline specific drills that I find most effective but the conditioning programming will be generalized and you, as the user, can decide what you want to do.

Yes.
Can you go straight into Hoss 2 after running the original Hoss Project?
Yes.
