I did read the stickies, very informative...
Can you elaborate a little more your progress
I have to be honest, haha I am actually scared of doing a DC leg day, I already work up to sets in the 300's on squats and always feel like I am going to die, i cant imagine going to 20 reps, but I do want to try it, and will just not sure when
Oh yeah, I should try not to mislead you folks. Since I have pretty good recovery I decided from the start to do a 4 day split as follows - upper split monday, lower split tues, break wed (medium intensity cardio), upper split thurs, and lower split friday, with HIIT over the weekend. Two further modifications - biceps on upper split, back width on lower splits since I always do deadlifts or rack pulls for back thickness and hammies so it just makes sense to do this then. The other modification is I only use 2 different exercises (as opposed to 3) for quads, hams, and back thickness. Back width I do use 3.
So here is the strategy I picked up for leg stuff (half of it I got from a friend when I started DC training before I even knew what it was, and other half I developed and feel very comfortable with). And this is for making linear, calculable progress that you can track. You can always change it up. For the squat, work up to a set of 6 reps. Rest, then take 90 off (plate off each side), and do the 20 repper. For leg press, I work up to a 6-8 repper, drop 180 off (2 plates off each side), and do the 20 repper. If you switch squat with hack squat, then I follow the exact same protocol as with squat.
In terms of progress, I mean, I have giant ass quads with definition I've never had before, so that's a good thing (this is an exaggeration but useful in driving the point home). Strength wise I went from a 375 lb 1RM squat to 405 for 6. And that's on a cut, lol.
