    Squats and deads

    That's what I'm currently running. Really liking it but it's definitely unlike anything I've done before. I too am taking pieces here and there. Mostly because I train alone and I'm a basement gym with access to barbell/bodyweight only. How are you setting up your training DC/RP method?

    Vector's Ludus Log

    Haven't updated this in months but I'm starting a new program and will be logging an Andro cycle later on so I thought it was a good idea to get this rolling. Im changing my training from strictly strength focus (with hypertrophy as a pleasant side effect) to a more balanced strength AND hyper...

    Invalid Link Removed ^ here's the link, gents. I haven't updated it yet. Will get to it tonight/tomorrow morning. I'll be running this for at least 3 months if everything gels. FYI I have an upcoming cycle starting mid-May too (Sparta Nutrition Spartan Hard). As for those widow makers...yeah...

    New Routine/Program Suggestions

    I'm still somewhat focusing on strength with hypertrophy as a (very) close second, beach-seasons coming... That whole "powerbuilding" thing. So I'm not rotating lifts that often. In fact I'll probably only rotate once I've maxed out on a specific lifts progression for a variant there of - like...

    Spartan Hard Product Info/Q&A

    My package from PHW just arrived yesterday! But I won't be running until mid-May... Maybe sooner but I'm waiting on Sparta's OCT and PCT before I even think about cracking open the bottle. Have the Clomid at least, haha.

    I need help staying motivated to remain natty

    Some of my biggest influences are the guys from the 40's and 50's. If you're not familiar with any of em check out dudes like Reg Park, Steve Reeves, and John Grimek. Some ppl debate if Reeves was "natty" though he was very outspoken against chemical use and I'm unsure about Park myself but...

    I need help staying motivated to remain natty

    It's all about perspective - for the longest time I thought anybody that used PED's was an ******* and not "natty". Then I came to the conclusion that there really is no such thing as natural anymore. Ppl train in artificial (gym) environments, they get their food packaged from supermarkets...

    New Routine/Program Suggestions

    Thanks guys - yeah Ima gonna give this a whirl. Just trying to nail down the little details. I understand the programming basics along with the "cardio" (which is to be done on non-lifting days) and I think I have the diet down too (high protein intake, carb tapering, fasted cardio etc.). For...

    New Routine/Program Suggestions

    Ok ok - so I took the plunge...kinda. I couldn't find any (free) DC programming online but I did come across the "Greyskull Methods for Powerbuilding". Right in the intro Johnny Pain gives credit to the ebook's two big influences: Dorian Yates and Dante Trudel. It's basically a little of both...

    after stronglifts 5x5?

    I would vote for a periodization program. Out of the two you mentioned - 5/3/1. However I would take a look at The Texas Method. I think it's an excellent intermediate program that's also fairly flexible. Johnny Schaeffer's (aka Johnny Pain) stuff is good too. He has the Greyskull Gladiator...

    Squats and deads

    Hallelujah! Preach it Brotha! I'm a barbell addict so I love hearing this. A typical "back" day for me is similar to what you did - a lethal amount of sets of deadlifts (usually after some kinda of squat) with chins and rows thrown in until I feel my eyes bleed. All for lowish reps. Oh and...

    Back and Bi

    I think it depends on your goals. If you wanna increase a specific lift or muscle group your gonna to have emphasize it possibly as the expense of something else. So let's say your goal is a thick back AND arms... 1. Chest/Shoulders/Triceps *Bench Focus + Dips 2. Legs/Back/Biceps *Trap Focus -...

    Question on reps and sets. 6-8, or 8-12 for 3 sets?

    Check out Greg Nuckols articles on the "Hypertrophy Range". To sum it up he looks at a meta-analysis of training studies and has concluded that there is no "ideal rep range for muscle growth". Basically anything in the 1-15 range will make you grow. However there's a "but"... We can divide the...

    Hellz Yeah BRODAWG! Let me know what you end up deciding cause I'm having this debate myself. Was gonna run Hard for 8 weeks straight but after seeing Smith's Mass log as well as the other guys kicking ass with these I'm thinking of doing Cerberus or Mass (probably Mass cause I'm broke) for...

    New Routine/Program Suggestions

    Dorian Yates is a BEAST! Though before you posted this I was looking into some of the methods of the old, old school lifter and bodybuilders. Guys like Reeves, Grimek, Pearl, and Park. Those guys are my iron heroes - strong, athletic, and jacked! The whole pre-roids era debate aside, most were...
