also dont worry so much on how many seconds your negative is as long as its done in a controlled manner then an explosive positive..

bbicep/forearm/Leg traing from 12-8-04

Dumbbell curls 20 reps RP @ 40lbs
Hammer curls 20 reps RP @ 35lbs

seated Calf raises 35 rp @ 140lbs. (I know it's a lot of reps but I like to burn them out)

Lying leg curls 20 reps RP @ 70lbs

Leg press 25 reps ( I had a little extra in me) 4 plates total.

I know that the weight was light on this go around and the reps were a little higher than need be but I wanted to get the feel of this with the negatives which was nice and tight. Plus I always thought that I went to failure on my old 4 day split but after doing this I now know that I have never in the past 5 years of lifting went to failure.

how much weight are you rest pausing? most people that deadlift in general wouldnt do that ,, you will sacrifice form and possibly injure yourself,, i mean if someone does a dl of 315 for a brutal set of 8 im sure they will take a couple of minutes to rest for the next set,, but to each his own not going to try to convert what you do..just remember on dc training its not recommened.

I dont remember reading that, but perhaps i should stop. My weight is getting up there, and perhaps it would be dangerous to continue doing that.

Megiddo, Are you doing DC's program?, and have you ever tried the Calf exercises his way?...

We do not RP, Quads, Calves, Forearms, Back Thickness and Sumo Presses for Hams, these bodyparts and that one exercise for Hams are straight setted out...

Yeah I'm doing DC's prog. I'm going to do more of a negative from now on. I got carried away on calves wedensday when working out with a friend.

Today is the next upper body day.

well on deads when i burn myself out, a 15 second rest is not enough to move the weight again..... and i find the strain to get it off the floor again is on the border of injury as my form falls appart trying to move it off the floor...... its not recomended to rest pause the DL, but if you have no prob with it, more power to you. it just felt dangerous to me when I tried.

Ive been rest pausing on deadlifts, and its been going great. I see no reason not to. The squat shouldnt be rest paused, because the weight is on top of you and if you fail this is problematic. Deadlifts are easy to rest pause. Just drop the weight, take 15 breaths, pick it up and do 5 more. Its been doing wonders for me.

learn something new every day... i have been rest pausing forarms.

This is the main reason we do not do RP on these exercises, safety is the main concern here. That first lift off the ground on Deads is just brutal, so think after you were to do one working set to failure, take 5-15 deep breaths, then try to attempt the same weight again then do it one more time after this, my lower back is in pain just typing this...

So you know to perform Calves its up on your big toe at the top of the movement, top to the bottom of the movement in 5 seconds, then hold that bottom portion for 15 seconds, then back up to your big toe, that is one rep, go for 12 reps without re-adjusting your feet. For a little extra pain, lock your knees out...

[bighitz]

bump that calves routine will kill you,, i swear you will be shaking like its winter,,

megiddo it ok to feel the weight out at first but the next time that rotation comes around lets add some more weight there buddy..
listen to inhuman he knows this program better then anyone.. (ex for dc) your numbers look nice on forearms go for that brutal set of 12-14

Sounds like great fun. I'm going heavy today and for the next 4 - 6 weeks. I'm not sure how long I should stay on this program before I kill my self. Stats and pics this weekend.

This is why we do blast and cruise, blast and cruise so we do not burn out and still make huge gains...
