youve never done DC? what for? you know a shit ton about it...

[PanterA]

That would be my concern, that it would inhibit my progress. Especially starting brand new on DC.

And as far as Dante, he doesnt do it, but hes also up to his size standards. The two way is the mass pronto plan.

Again, Im just pointing out the things that arent to the T DC. Ive never done the program, but will eventually.


As well, the movement choice to hit BP's secondarily is a great idea.

What I was getting at is he will change things. He will say certain things are done this way, but for certain various reasons he will change things. I have read him say that when he trains people it's all about what works best for them. The 'rules' are the guidelines he finds works best for most, but for certain various reasons things can be tweaked.

Perfect example is calf raises. Supposed to be 1 straight set. However if you have problems with your feet slipping on certain lifts, RP it. You're supposed to do 11-15 RP reps for the most part. If you have joint issues you can go higher...

It's hard to tell with that pose, but the arms don't realy look like they're lagging. Hard pose to judge from though.

ya, i just need to improve and get bigger in general, everywhere. the more i see ppl on here and the more i get into it, the bigger the pussy i think i look. ive ben doin this seriously for 7 months. its gonna take me a good year and a half to get a decent base to work with.

Appreciate it, the gym is my escape from the insanity I've been dealing with as of late.

I'd go crazy w/o it.
