Hi guys, first off a big thank you to all the brains and long time poster's of intensemuscle. Your knowledge has helped alot more people then you think, though this thread is not about kissing ass.
What this thread is about is about an alternative training method/philosophy to DC training. I have trialled DC and I do love it, it is does exactly what it is supposed to. Though this type of training is not for everyone. So if you have any other great training method's please take a minute to share on your thought's.
For me, the reason why DC isn't for me is simple. It is too Taxing on my system. I am not elite and have never claimed to be, but with my employment (club security, meaning night work) and the biggest factor - high intense cardio (fight training) I find that that I have absolutely nothing left in me and pretty much just die when I get time off. I did notice great gains in DC though.
Now a little about me, I am 28 6'0" and (currently 85kg - 6 months off training, down from 92kg due to injury/break up and complete loss of motivation). Favourite excercises are Deadlifts and Squats, but love any compound - willing to trial most programs as long as it has these movements. The reason is because most of my strength is upper body (weak part is Chest/Bi, strong is back/Tri) due to training younger years solely on top body through fear of putting my lower back out (slight scoliosis due to hip alignment - one hip sits higher and slightly twisted) though I realised that deadlifts were more beneficial then detrimental as it strengthens everything up.
Long post as I have tried to be as informative about where I am at the moment. I have looked at Mehdi's 5x5 and prefer a full body targeted workout. Thanks once again guys, I have learnt more from this forum then I did in paying thousand's of dollars for a personal training qualification.
Much love
Kuni
