    Man...that's pretty messed up. Please wildman, for the last time...keep reading.

    1. I don't see forearms.
    2. No extensions for a triceps movement
    3. Leg Presses as a hams movement? What the hell?
    4. no Leg Extensions as a quads movement.
    5. Why only a set of 20 on squats?
    6. TBar Rows isnt' even a back width exercise
    7. We don't even RP Rack Deads.
    8. You just said 'working calves' basically. How vague.

    That's all I'm going to say...

      6. TBar Rows isnt' even a back width exercise--Its a Thickness? Ill Do It That Way.
      7. We don't even RP Rack Deads.--Good to Know for Next Time!!
      8. You just said 'working calves' basically. How vague.-- I Do three Different Machienes- The Way DC Outlined in CFP. (Slow)

        1. Forearms are important, don't neglect them in your posts.
        2. We try to keep our exercises to heavy compound movements(close grip bench, reverse grip bench, dips, skullcrushers etc...)
        3. Leg press is Quads, unless you are doing sumo stance high up with only heels on the sled and toes pointed out... this is a ham exercise some like to do.
        4. Same thing here, only heavy compound movements... that's what builds strength and ultimately results in added size.
        5. Not enough days? I don't follow. For quads, you want atleast one HEAVY set of 8-12, followed by a lighter 20 repper(excruciating). Whether its leg press, hacks, squats, thats what we do. For squats, I recommend doing the 20 repper in the smith machine because 20 rep free weights just get's dangerous.
        6. TBar rows is back thickness. Look to rack chins, pulldowns of all types, weighted chins etc. to bring up your back width.
        7. We don't RP rack deads. I would go a heavy set of 8-10 followed by a heavier set of 4. Basically we do not RP Back thickness exercises or quad exercises.
        8. Just keep doing your calves to the fullest the way DC has outlined and watch them grow.

        Keep at it bro it takes some getting used to but you'll get it.

                    The guys here are rough in responses, but I think that's just how they are when it comes to training. It's a way of weeding out people who start it "half assed" so to speak. I'm not saying this is how you're doing it; just making a general statement.

                    The guys will help if they feel you've done your part of the research. Keep it up. Don't forget to take pics as you progress along. Yuo will surprise yourself.

                      I understand that they dont just want to Answer a guy who is Asking without Reasearching. Trust me i Read (Takes a Sec to Sink In) but i am Doing This.

                      I have realized that this is way Better than The Training i was Doing. RP, Static Holds, Extreme Streching, just to name a Few Great Things about this Program.

                      Its a Whole new World!!

                        i wouldn't do altertnate curls. takes too much time and energy. stick to barbell curls. easy bar curls. things like that

                          It does take a Ton of Time, is there another Reccomendation because i already do Them.

                          (BB+EZ) How about on a Cable Machiene?

                            Alternate DB curls are fine. You're doing one working set, you don't need to save your energy. Use wrist straps so that your forearms don't give out first.
