When you present a training program, include at the very least the sets, reps and rest intervals. Otherwise it is completely pointless.

Working your legs once every 8 days is high frequency? Seriously? And most other muscle groups are targeted about once every 4 days, less than twice a week. That doesn’t seem like a high frequency to me.

I am not saying it will not work but by my standards that is not “high frequency.” I am afraid “frequency” is becoming a buzz word around here. H.F.T., the new H.I.T.
