Care to elaborate on the stalker episode?

Probably my fault as much as anything, but have you ever had a girl that just would not leave your house in the morning? Even after multiple hints, and you finally just come up with some BS story to get her to go? Then afterwards you get phone calls, e-mails and instant messages like crazy?

...yea, I decided to stop responding.

I am getting back into supplementing next week, so I'll share my plan with you guys and explain my reasoning behind all of it as soon as I figure the whole thing out.

Plus I am going to tone down the training to most likely 4 days a week and incorporate more of a DC style into the routine, if I can figure it out.

2 Days, 3 Versions of each.
1. Chest/Delt/Back Thickness/Tri/Back Width
2. Quad/Ham/Bicep/Forearms/Calves
Incorporating DC Stretching, 20 rep exercises, etc.
Exchanging a the 3rd day's back exercise with shrugs, and a few other tweeks.

looks good, cant wait till you start
 
Are you going to go straight into DC principles or do you think you are going to take a little bit of time off (like a week or 5 days?) Also I noticed you did a good amount of ab work are you going to incorporate it into your DC run or use the heavy compound exercises for the bulk of it?

Escalating Density Training.

That would be where you're alotting yourself a certain amount of time to do the exercise, and making (or breaking) a certain amount of reps (or total work).

I am training until exauhstion at a 2/1 rep tempo.

****ty workout caused by bad pre-workout nutrition + long day at work and meeting with the lead security guy and a few heads I'm going to be working security with at this new sports club...I ended up missing a meal and grabbing a MUSCLE MILK!!! shake from my gym.
