dont worry man, im doin max-ot too at the moment, almost done

max-ot is more of a powerlifting type of program than a bodybuilding one, imo

hows your gains been in strength though?

yea i dont think the 4-6 reps is good for mass gains, if youre experienced enough (at least 3 years serious lifting) and want some serious mass gains you should look into reading some dc material but make sure you know the program before you start it

or if youre somewhat of a beginner bump up the reps to 6-8 like usmuscle said and keep sets moderate (i keep them at 6 a bodypart) and do a good 3 or 4 day split

us knows his stuff, dont worry
