I agree. He's been on the same training regimen for awhile now. Going to the typical volumizing split should really give him a more "full" look to his muscles and a little added hardness as well. I'm still curious as to why people train DC, etc. so often. It's like the atkin's diet craze when it first started.

Alex you need to make up your mind as to what you wanna do my man. Stick with a routine for atleast 8 weeks so you can assess the results properly. Hopping around like this will get you nowhere. You should log your current volume workouts too.

Bro u wer saying DC was the way foreward for u, now its volume.

davie

alexxx · « **Reply #87 on:** April 10, 2007, 04:29:34 PM »

Yes a combination of the two will better you then just staying with one routine.

For instance I got pretty thick from the DC stuff but because of my diet and lack of sets I was not as full.

Now I am paying less attention to my diet (eating more carbs), and training heavy with much volume and POW!! I am full. People around me keep telling me how much bigger I look and wider.

I am not saying one is better then the other but it is wise to include them both for variety and maximum muscle size.

haha good job man. i did 19 (had to bring my jealous croatian gf, she slowed me down)

did 135kg x 8 on incline yesterday...looking to move up to 3 plates per side on the incline next week. we will see how it goes.

is it a 5 split?

go to a 5 split...45min of lots of sets with little rest between sets. gh15 agrees with me.

volumize

Yes the magic 5 day split! 3 plates on incline is damn good!

I am crazy sore but am loving it.

What does the weekly layout of your DC/Volume combination split look like?

alexxx · « **Reply #91 on:** June 21, 2007, 11:02:23 AM »

Just to let all you know I am training like Ronnie Coleman/Dorian Yates right now except once a week and with free weights.

Gains are comming in better then expected.

Moral of the story.. reduce volume, up the weight and recuperate!

davie · « **Reply #92 on:** June 21, 2007, 01:42:12 PM »

Bro u know i hope ur training is comeing on well, but a few months ago u sed lower volume higher frequency was the way foreward, then u sed high volume was best, now ur saying reduce volume??

Either way i hope it working.

Well I am doing something like Ronnie's program but once a week. Low sets with high weights and reps.

How is your training comming along?
