Hello all,
Just signed up and love your new book and site content. I've been training hard for the past 18 years. I'm an USMC 0311 (infantry) combat vet (hence the screen name) and father of five. Over the years I've come to many of the same conclusions laid out by Scott in terms of training my muscles more frequently spreading out the volume. At one point years back I was trained by SuperD DC training before he went to the darkside of the force from what I heard lol.. Damn shame bc I learned A LOT from him blasting up to a bw of 256. Unfortunately I ended up at a job doing 12 hr shift work alternating between days and nights which was NOT something that jived well with DC. From that point on my focus was on strength based work eventually accomplishing my goal of benching 410 raw. (Tried posting video but I don't have enough posts)..
Some time afterwards I suffered my first real injury with a bulging disc in my L4-L5. Had surgery a few years back but it never fully recovered (not that it was supposed to). Recently I took a few months completely off from training focusing on other endeavors and only just got back to training.
Now My training focus has come around full circle back to pure muscle mass.
