Darkvision I do want to point out that it's not just you. I don't mean to be picking on you. It's really a widespread problem that people are jumping into programs they don't understand from top to bottom, backwards and forwards.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.

Me too. So many people go exactly what you said Eric. They jump into training without really looking at the program and DFT is definitely not ideal for beginners. You are not alone Eric trust me.

I'm glad. It just gets frustrating when people do a program and then come back with lots of concerns and questions and you realize they have no real basic understanding of the program. But to be honest I think "jumping into programs" in the first place is part of the problem because people lack a fundamental understanding of the principles of resistance training. The principles are more important than the methods.

If you see a list of days with exercises and sets/reps for each day that is not a PROGRAM. That is a list of WORKOUTS. The program is how those workouts are progressed. How stress and reccovery is managed. All of that.

There is a difference between what we do to progress and workouts. We don't work out. We train. Workouts are what the new-year resolution crowd does on machines for a few months at the beginning of each year

I had put something else down but I'm just deleting it. I'm not bothering any more. This guy had no success for a couple of years on SS, so he says. Now he's doing DFT. And to boot he has advanced numbers. But no muscle mass. This is just a run-around.
