i wore chucks the first day. not optimal for long walks down the boulevard, so i soon changed. and yeah, that's an inzer shirt. those camo shirts are the most comfortable ones i have.

Notice you have been regularly including 20 min cardio at the tail of your sessions. Have you noticed any diff in your training, health or overall state of being from this?
 
we'll see in 3 weeks. getting bloodwork done. the only factors that have changed from last bloodwork was cardio and flax oil, that was about 3 months ago. it wasn't bad but my HDL was a tad low and LDL was above average.

I see you consider Good AM's as a lower back exercise, rather than a ham exercise (I do too) Does the same bear true for SLDL/RDL's?
 
i think RDL's and GM's are damn near identical. more emphasis on back but my hamstrings definately get a workout too, they're always sore the following day.
 
Beelzie, I have to say something about that pic b/c you are hilarious. Even though their faces are blacked out I can tell everybody else in the pic has a big smile on their face, looking normal. And then you look like you are about to beat the cameraman to a pulp and eat his face.
 
Nah. Beelz is the biggest teddy bear in satan's army. Don't let the harsh, mean exterior fool you... Under all that there's a sensitive, intelligent, good hearted young man :lol:

Yeah but you'll be thinking to yourself the whole time..I'm getting my ass kicked by this cute big ole teddy bear. And you limp away with broke ribs and a warm fuzzy in your stomach.

Nice...I'm doing somet hing similar, but not calling it DC :d

m,t,th,f and i hit each bp with about 3-4 sets and thats it. I've been back in the gym two weeks after a long, long,long layoff with only a few short visits back to the gym and my strength is up 20lbs on bench reps (no supps), so I'm coming back faster than anticipated even with the diet being sub-par. I think frequency is a big factor in training.

Well, off to train a client. See ya :clean:
 
I was thinking that DC really isn't that different than Body-For-Life, which was my intro to bodybuilding. Only real difference I see is that the warmup sets are a bit more intensive so that with BFL there is more than just 1 work set. Of course, the stretching, rest-pausing, etc makes DC a bit tougher, but still similar.

Drew still floats around... but he's almost too easy. :D

Damn Beelze... nice PR's and a ish load of em too --- were you motivated last night or something?
 
i'm still irritated about the last squat session (even though it was a PR) so i've been compensating for it every way possible. good news is i figured out my problem though. not sure when i started it because i didn't used to do this, but lately i've been angling my feet out more, close to 45 degrees, whereas before they were hardly angled at all allowing me to sit back further. it's all good now though, problem solved.

Nothing wrong with angling your feet out. It's actually useful for a lot of people to help them push their knees out. Practice pushing your ass back as far as possible, arching your back as much as possible, and pushing your knees out as much as possible. Your body should be like a slingshot, your hips are the area of greatest tension, and when you break parallel you let them "snap back" while pushing your chest and back up and keeping your knees pushed out.
 
true, but i've noticed i get more hip tension and glute involvement when i don't angle as much thereby making the squat that much easier, especially out of the hole. when my feet were ~45 degrees, i felt it more in my knees and quads. good for bb'ing, bad for big numbers. works for me anyway ;)

you guys still do squats? Pssssshhh... Spinning classes is all you need fellas.

Any of you people ever get strange pains and buzzing numbness in the distal biceps tendon/brach/elbow-pit area of your arms during any heavy pronated or hammer grip move? I've been encounterint it off and on lately, especially in regards to back training. Some say tennis elbow, some say distal biceps tendon problems... All I know is that it is aggravating and really screws up my following training days when I get it.
 
i only get it after making drastic strength gains, like if i bulk and gain 10 or more lbs during that period, so that could semi be equated to being on
 
beez, can you check my log to make sure i am doing everything correctly since i am trying to follow your program.
