starting dc training

wide angle · Apr 6, 2004

hi all,

going to be starting dc training beginning next week,i have been stuck at 220lbs and being doing a 5 day split with weekends off for some time now and feel dc training will help me finally get huge.i have a few questions though.

i train alone,but will be able to structure my upper body workouts for that no problem,but legs what movements do you guys do that dont have partners to assist in rest pause?

currently i am on a traditional 12 week cycle which i will complete in another 7 weeks whereby i will take off a few months,then i will contemplate using doggs cycle and cruise method,still researching it as i dont fully understand it as yet,i.e i cant use tren as i cannot get it,only deca or eq or winny(other than test)so a bit confused on how you derive benefit out of such a short 6-7 week burst of eq before going into maintenance for a few weeks etc.

many thanks

wide angle, Most of the leg exercises we do straight setted out, the only rest/pause we use is on Hamstings for instance Leg Curls, Seated, Standing or Lying.

Good Luck on your new program, I really learned a lot from training with DC, the best thing that ever could have happened...

same here.. straight sets for squats.. but I do restpause for leg presses.

As for upper body use a smith machine or in a power rack. No partners are needed.

Derek, Not a good idea to do r/p with Leg Press, if you wear wraps on heavy sets, it is very difficult to do them.

Just go for a heavy set of 12-15, then do a set of 20...

I dont wear wraps...

I never had any problems with restpause on the presses..

BTW just for my info..

when doing reps I ain for 6-8 then do rest pause...so I get about 10-12 reps total. Is this good..

when i take the 10 second rest I can only rep out 2-3 reps. Then my last one I can just get 1 MAYBE 2...
