I posted this on my home board, but there are several here who would make good candidates, so here goes:
Ladies and Gentleman. I was reading up this weekend on a few different training theories (HST, Dual Factor, and others) and I had an epiphony. Well sort of. Throughout the years, I have tried many-a-different-a-routine. Most left me unsatisfied; many I just didn't like. I have tried several of my own conconcotions, or derivations of other plans, and only one has consistently produced the best results both for myself and for many others who I have trained with (I have discussed this many times).
Anyhow, the point is, this weekend, it hit me -- or at least I think it did -- what all these programs are missing. I think it was the name "dual factor", though not its principals, that brought this into focus. Indeed, it made me realize that all of these programs generally focus on (and require progression of) only one or two of what are the three fundamental principles to growth:
* volume
* intensity
* frequency
So, I have been formulating a plan that is really combination of several of the many plans I have tried (or put together) over the years, but have never done in unisen. So since I am not going to tell you all the plan now, what is the point of this thread? I am looking for those interested in testing, and perhaps causing me to tweak, the plan.
What are the parameters? One full Cycle (yep I love cycles) will be about 13 weeks; so that will be the length of your commitment. The goal is, simply, hypertrophy. Recomposition is/can be a goal as well, and I will likely have some dieting parameters and requirements as well (it will combine many aspects of Carb Cycling).
I am hoping to get 4-5 people interested. Relevant candidates will be:
* people whom I know, at least marginally (total strangers need not apply -- sorry);
* well trained individuals (experienced, not beginners, who know their bodies);
* anal retentive folks (this will require attention to details, logs, etc);
* Must workout out in a gym (home gyms, except the most sophisticated won't have sufficient equipment);
* flexability (in terms of the numbers of days one can train, and in terms of personality);
* Ability to follow the plan to a tee (and not do extra work on your own);
* Consistency (this is critical, no derivations, for at least 13 weeks);
* Health (no injury laden folks -- like myself -- please);
* Bulkers or Recompers only -- no dieters (this will be good for dieters, but its not an ideal testing situation for me);
* Confidentiality (this program, and the details, will be confidential, until I deem them otherwise);
* those with a sense of adventure (this will be unlike anything you have ever tried before).

Thanks for listening.
