I have tried Doggcrap's routine for the last month now and I have seen some good results. I can't say I have followed it to the "T" because I often forget to stretch right after my last set, but I am usually pretty good about it. The stretching really makes a difference and you will be sore as hell the next day. My workout is modified also in that I only do it 4-5 days a week as opposed to hitting the same bodypart 3 times in 9 days. My strength has gone up on almost all of my lifts. Most noticeably has been my bench press and curl exercises. I was doing the One Bodypart per Day Workout beforehand and I needed a change. Next week I plan to switch it up a little and go back to a higer rep and set workout for at least 2 weeks. Going that heavy for too long will take a toll on your body if you are not juicing, which I am not. I plan to come back to this routine periodically so I don't get in a rut with the same workout. I have been contemplating throwing the 5x5 workout into the mix as well.

i dont fully understand this;

so you pick one excercise per day that you can lift for 8 reps and basically get a tiny rest period then go again to failure(3-4 reps) then failure again (1-2 reps)?

whats' (rest-pause) supposed to mean? how does the stretching thing work and whats it do?

That is rest pause, You lift the wait then rest pause it, and then lift it again untill you get 15-20 reps total. His idea is you work chest two times a week instead of one and you goto failure with one set and then do deep stretching. He says the deeps stretching in it self is like another set and really hurts. I have tried some of the stretching methods and I can agree with that.

so for bench, you do 8 reps, then re-rack it, then same thing with 3-4 reps and then 1-2 reps?

where can i find some info on stretching?

the article i read said that you lifted 3 times per week? or does it go each bodypart twice and then on the last day 1 gets hit again so one bodypart is 3x a week and the rest are 2x?
