Re: DC training
Even though my training has a lot of heavy work in it, I haven't really done any proper strength training for nearly two years.
I also like the idea of going back to something not far off a full body workout, and I have trained that upper/lower body split before.
And my bench has been stagnant/struggling at 60 kg for nearly a year. Actually, when I think about it, a few of my lifts haven't moved up since around May.
The only think I have noticed is that there is no specific trap work, or am I missing something?

Re: DC training
DOH, I just realised you don't need to do traps if you are doing heavy deads, anyway, my traps are freaking massive as it is.
A little note, this is not a newbie type of training program, this is something you would do after at least a year to two years of training.
It is also not one of those program you try out for a month, I would have at least 6 months to a year to dedicate to DC training.

Re: DC training
My traps/upper back have blown up training this way. My BB rows and Deadlifts have really increased since March. This program will make you thick.

Re: DC training
Exercise selection looks good. You do have three exercises for each body part picked out to rotate through, right? Also your exercise order is off. I know some people train in a different order, but it is probably best to do them as Dante prescribes.
A)Chest, Shoulders, Tris, BackW, BackT
B)Bis, Forearms, Calves, Hams, Quads
Also another thing, and this is just something that works for me, is to use a higher rep range for shoulders and backW. My shoulders take a beating between my chest and tri exercises so I keep shoulders in the 15-20 rep range and they are growing great.
I am looking forward to seeing how you like this program. I am sure you will gain some quality mass training this way. When is your next contest?

Re: DC training
I just realised that I have only done two exercises, ta.
I did shift the order of the exercises, so it isn't a big deal to put them back in the same order.
At least I will have till the weekend to make up another
A) upper body
B) lower body + bits day
LOL, I am going to try and put on some more muscle, it could be a bit scary as I already looked like a bit of a BEAST next to the other nattie girls.
There are two comps in 6 and 8 weeks, but I am really torn, I am not sure if I really want to diet more this year.
Otherwise, the first possible comp next year would be end of April.
I could 'bulk' for about 6 months if I don't do any more comps this year.

Re: DC training
I only wonder if the day 1 is ok for someone whose triceps are lacking??
Sure chest and delt movement wont cause much strength drop for triceps like other BB programs, but i still wonder if it is good for triceps.
Will it be possible to recruit the same amount of motor units??
Anyone?
