OK, just looking out. You only learn from asking.

Week Two: DF 5x5
Monday: [5x5] Olympic Squats: 255 [5x5] Flat Bench: 285 [1x5] JS Rows: 295 [2x12] Reverse Curls: 95 [2x12] Skullcrushers: 95 -After each exercise per bodypart a loaded (DC) fascia stretch. -EDIT: I forgot to post this after I did it.. Wednesday: [5x5] Front Squats: 195 [5x5] Standing Military Press: 175 [5x5] Weighted Pullups: bw + 15 [5x5] Deadlifts: 345 [2x10] Incline Curls: 50 [2x10] Reverse Pressdown: 70 -After each exercise per bodypart, I'll do a loaded (DC) fascia stretch - Front squats was easy as was the OHP's. The deadlifts killed my lower back by the third set..Bad back pump. Other than that, pretty good day. If the lower back is a continuing problem, I'll just do 315x5 as my first set, sorta as a heavy warmup, then use heavier weight than planned for my other 4 sets of 5. I also got my SD in the mail yesterday, which is temping, but it's not in the cards for at least the next 4 weeks. |
Lookin good bro. Did you go with the BN SD? I never did get around to picking any up. I guess that cycle will be under 100bucks now huh.

Friday:
[1x5] Olympic Squats: 275 [5x5] Incline Bench: 235 [5x5] JS Rows: 265 [2x12] Hammer Curls: 55 [2x12] Weighted Dips: 50 -After each exercise per bodypart a loaded (DC) fascia stretch. - First off, A2G squats were very easy to complete..A hundred times easier than last cycle. At first I was slightly apprehensive about the 20 lb. increase for squats, but it turned out to be a good decision. A2G: 225x5, 235, 245, 255, 275. The whole day was pretty easy. I made the inclines harder by only resting about 80 seconds between sets and had a 4-0-1 tempo. The rows still suck the life out of me. I added in some standing hammer curls ss w/ weighted dips. Kept those light and easy as well. Both had emphasis on the negative. |

I'm going to go with your recommendation of Fuze along with the standard PCT (rebound xt). |
A few changes I want to make for my upcoming upper/lower body split. I was thinking about incorperating some of DC's rest/pause working sets..Particularly for chest. It worked very well for me doing that style of program so I figure it would be an excellent addition for my second upper day.

Low Incline: 15 RP: 1.) The first set should have me fail around 8 reps. After my 8th rep, I take an 8 second negative and hook the smythe bar after the decent. The bar will be about an inch off my chest at this point. 2.) I get out from underneath it and take 12-15 DEEP, controlled breaths. 3.) Getting back under the bar, I will now try and hit 3-4 more reps in the same controlled fashion..After the final rep, I take another 8 second negative and re-rack at the bottom. 4.) 12-15 deep, controlled breaths. 5.) Try and get 1-3 more...Ending again on an 8 second negative. 6.) At this point, I personally will take 15-20 deep breaths, then try for a static hold for as long as I can stand it. All this counts as my ONE and only one working set before moving on... |

interesting upper/lower. Question, for the super sets are you using the OVT tempo?
