LOL Noooooo PM........s

Wise ass

DiGi-
Rest pause lets say your benching...Do your reps a rest pause would be after the concentric portion you stop at the top for a rest/pause or vise versa at the bottom of the ecentric portion you would do a rest pause. I dont know the way arch is doing it w/ his workout but alot of people do it once they hit failure...they will rest pause to crank some more out and increase hypertrophy. There are many aspects of it but thats it in a nutshell.

Deadbolt's description of a rest pause is correct, but I think Arch does it the way I do..... Doggcrapp style.

Do a set with a weight you can handle for 8-12 reps to failure (DC says 8, but I notice Arch likes to go higher). Rack the weight. Take some DEEP breaths, then after about 20-25 seconds, do another set aiming for 4-6 reps. Rack the weight, rinse and repeat, then go for 1-3 reps. It's killa. I can only do this type of training for 4-5 weeks, then need a break. But Arch is an animal!

Very impressed with the rows and the higher rep deads.

I think that is a great plan Brother Arch. I tried this before, and it seemed to be better then doing deads each time.

Hi all, sorry have not been on, been EXTREMELY busy this past week!!! My Best Friend (and w/o partner) is trying to move from illinois over here close to me, so I'm helping him look for houses and stuff like that, so we took this week off as he is trying to sell his house at the momment, so he had alot to take care of so we both decided to take the week off!!!

Coming back next week w/ a different approach, a "reverse Heavy Duty" so to speak!!!

GOD speed you all and thank you for the encouragement!!!
