Yea I did not really mention the whole "rest-pause" concept, the x-stretches, super high protein diet, carb cut offs, cardio on non training days, etc.
I have been training this way for 7 months now. Very good program. I have made some solid gains in this time. Close to 20 pounds lbm. I think it works.
My blast usually last between 6-9 weeks. My cruise is a week off, then two to three weeks of higher volume ramping the intensity back up into the blast.
And Alc... I am not trying to talk you into training this way. I am just trying to show you the other ways to skin a cat. You say you don't want to do it because "the fact that everyone is doing it isn't really very appealing to me" I don't really understand your logic here?? Look at the people on here that are doing this... Ceo, Tatyana, mwm5, Onebreath...These are our more "advanced trainers" on the board.
4-8 weeks would be a waste too imo. You would need more time to devote to it and the program is not to be half-assed. It is all or nothing.
Hmm....you ...alright, i'm going to finish up my program...i'll need another month or so, then i'll switch into DC training
