DogCrapp Training

[Severedties]

I am thinking of trying dogcrapp training for a few months. Theres not too much info on it on this site, i have gotten alot from other sites, but i was wondering what you all think about it. Anyone tried it?

I've been doing something similar to it, so does sc54, but it's not the same as I do. It works when you are taking more time in between workouts.

I've only read excerpts from some of his articles and his workout routine did spark my interest. Would someone give me a little more insight to this technique b/c all of his clients gains that he shared are awesome.

Stonecold doesnt do it. He only works each body part once in a while. DC trainings premise is that you work out each body part ~3 times every 9 days, but you only do 1 set per body part.

Stonecold does something alot more like HIT than DC.

correct me if I'm wrong but from what i understand DC's workout wants you to work each body part 3 times every 9 days. for example if i were to workout chest , i would pick 3 exercises and rotate 1 each workout. Since you are going only 1 set you obviously want to use heavy weight, but do you lift to failure on that set. aslo, how many body parts do you focus on per workout? thanks for any help

What i meant by SC doing it is he does the more rest in between days.

You may do it so that you hit each bodypart each nine days (MT ThF). Or it is recommended that you do it such that you hit each body part twice each eight days (MWF). You go heavy, and each set is to extreme failure (you are using the rest pause technique, so you are going past failure).

THe workout is split like:
Day 1:
Chest
Shoulders
Triceps
Back Width
Back Thickness

Day 2:
Biceps
Forearms
Calves
Hamstrings
Quads

Now lets see if we can get some feedback for it.

I do a modified version of the DC method.

you rest pause your reps so you get beyond failure... but you also do extream negatives during your working set... the negative phase is about 7 seconds. shoot for about 8 reps... rest for 12 deep breaths and shoot for another 4ish then 12 more deep breaths and try and get a few more. then you extream stretch.... for example my extream stretch for chest is holding 50lb dumbells in the down position of flys for 60 seconds.

I like this training style. it keeps you from over training... keeps you striving to increase your strength, and allows for quick work outs (atleas my splits do)

pm me with any questions.

Have any other people tried this?

I am going to give it a shot for about 12 weeks to see if it improves my strength and size. Hopefully it will. I need to ask bouncer if I can do a training log here to post my results

[BBAddict]

Any change to a routine that has become stagnant will spark more growth, probably of both size and strength. I don't subscribe to any one training routine-instead, I just mix it up anytime I feel my training is not producing results as judged by growth and muscle soreness.

I tried this today and it was pretty good. The following is my routine for the day. The * denotes warmup sets:

* dumbbell flies 25 lbs 3@12
Incline barbell press 135lbs@12 statc hold for 1:00
*Assisted chins 3@12
Bent over Rows 135lbs@12 static :45
Machine shoulder presses 100lbs@15 static for 1:30
Deadlifts 185@8 static for :35
Triceps 100 till failure static for 1:25 (I lost count and just went until I couldn't do them anymore)

As you may have noticed I did very light weight as I wasn't sure how this would affect me as this is new, plus I wanted to get a feel for how these are done correctly. I did screw up by not working until failure on my first sets. I finally realized this when I got to deads.

A couple of other problems I encountered was wanting to do more than one set, mainly because I didn't do the sets to failure, and being use to doing 4-5 sets per exercise. My training partner also informed me that I am pushing out with my stomach on my pressing movements which is why I am having problems trieng to get the stomach flat.

All in all this was a good test. Wednesday is legs and biceps so hopefully it will go well. I will also post some pics to show any progress I make for the next 12 weeks.

You should be doing more reps for deadlifts. Today i did 285 for 14 pause 6 reps and pause again and did 3 reps.

That is the rep scheme he recommends. I have been growing alot off that.
