Good luck bro..listen to the body. For myself the heavier I am, the harder it is to move anymore. And I'm only 42...lol. hope I make it to 52
I'm about 285-290 right now, doing a little cardio. I know winter is for bulking but damn if I wasn't happier about 265-270. And you'll make 52 easy, my goal is 102!!
yeah man. that stuff is just straight up nasty nasty. i bet the pump is just straight up stupid. wait till you get on to the legs and back then you will really hate me then. sit back and enjoy the good painful ride
I can only imagine leg days. A 20 rep widow maker is bad enough, but this is all widows where I came from LOL!!
Ok, being an absolute hardhead I went to the gym this morning and did shoulders and traps as guns01 laid out. I dropped my weights what I thought was appropriate for the higher rep scheme, boy did I **** that up. I thought I had calculated correct, I was SO wrong. This workout absolutely kicked my ass, my weight used for side laterals for example was about 30% of what my normal working weight is for my last set. Doing 5-6 sets of reps ranging from 20-12 and then a 20 rep set at the end wiped me out. I made it, but not before expressing my hatred for guns01 (not really, but it was close)
Going from DC to high reps is so odd, but I liked it a lot and felt great about an hour or so after having my post workout meal. Gun01, you evil genius, thank you!!

old haha. you are still tearing it up and light years ahead of people half your age. i am here for the journey and cant wait to see the positives that go along with the new kind of body and muscle abuse. i may jump into your discipline at the start of my next off season and see what you can add onto my medium a** lol
So, as many of you know I am a DC Disciple, training DC since 2001. It has done everything that I could ask and more, and took me to 300 pounds plus with still a hint of abs. I have learned about diet, dedication, sacrifice and pushing past physical and mental barriers that I never thought I could. I want to thank Dante Trudel, you are the man in my book as far as training is concerned. Your word is gospel to me, thank you my Brother.
With that being said, I am now 52 years old and years of lifting heavy slag iron have taken their toll on my joints and ligaments. I am physically a wreck, massage and taking care of myself are just not enough these days. I need a change.
I am a student of this game, I read and absorb. I test on myself and do many things behind the scenes that I never talk about. But I also look at what others have done and accomplished and recognize someone who talks the talk but also walks the walk. Someone here over my time here that has earned my respect is guns01. The guy knows his stuff, he is smart and he knows that diet is the key. The difference between us is I am low volume and heavy weights and he is a high volume guy. But I reached out and asked him for some advice and help with a high volume approach and I received more then I could ever ask. I got not only advice, but a complete 4 day routine laid out for me. Guns01, thank you for doing that, it means the world to me.
So starting Monday the 19th, I am going to train high volume based on his advice. I may even start a log but I wanted to post this to do two things. One is to give huge props to guns01 and the second is to let people know that even an old dog can learn new tricks. I will post up how things are going and answer questions on the differences between the two styles if anyone has them.
