Boston loyd coaching

You're halfway there... But, the "feeder" sets in DC training increase the volume. So, think something like this for a squat-

135x 12
185 x 10
225 x 10
275x 8
315 x 8 (getting close to muscular failure, probably RPE of ~9)
365 x 8, then rest 20 seconds, go to failure again. Rest another 20 seconds, then failure again.

The above volume is likely MORE than most people would do on a squat. Training to true muscular failure is the goal.... You may like this: http://img2.tapuz.co.il/forums/1_158907702.pdf

Take into account rest pause sets, straight sets and window makers as well as proper feeder/warm up sets. DC is not necessarily low volume. Obviously lower volume than the typical high volume routines. But when done as prescribed by Dante, dusty or Scott Stevenson not really low volume. And that’s just the 2 way split.

I think it just got tagged as "low volume" because the guys that actually know the science behind it are only thinking about the work sets.

They just sort of mentally disregard the warm up/feeder sets so they find themselves telling people they only do 4 working sets for chest and it gets misunderstood by the majority of people and branded as "low volume" when the reality is they are probably doing the same number of total sets or more than the people running "regular" routines.
 
Have you seen his protocols? They are very moderate compared to what I've seen many "gurus" prescribe their clients. You're assuming he has his clients run cycles like he does... I have seen firsthand that he does not.

Admittedly I haven't. I wonder, though, why he wouldn't follow his own advice.

And DC training works great. I know a few people who train that way.

i'm curious as to what you consider high volume if you dont consider Dogcrapp low volume? i think its so low i wouldnt recommend it to anybody but i've always been a very very very high set advocate. but i'm not biased i've tried other ways. but in terms of training i'd avoid anything Bostin would ever say regarding training. Dante might listen a bit too.

High volume to me is anything written in the muscle mags, 4x10 with 3-5 exercises per body part.

thats it? thats considered high these days? okay, alright. personally i think double the maximum stated above is the minimum i'd ever do. minimum John Defendis ever did even when he was 51 and 275.(comes to mind since i was listen to rxmuscle radio two seconds ago) because even though i do extremely heavy cycles at times way worse than Bostin Loyd,i definitely dont rely on them. Training is everything to me it not alot to you if you train for 45 minutes, i'd be ripping my fucking hair out with excitement to attack again but like Bostin the older i get the less enthusiasm and zest of a beginner i have but god only thing hes enthusiastic about is every ester of every drug at once at moderately high doses

I have no dog in the race here... Just pointing out that Bostin is a reasonable choice for a lot of people, in my honest opinion.
I think it's horse in race, dog in fight...just saying. Not trying to correct you or that it even matters but...ya.
Lol
 
has anyone worked with the boss man? How’s he diet ppl high carbs low carbs more on the cardio side? How does he do he’s drugs? Any reviews? Let me know pretty keen to work with him. Been a big fan for over 3 years lol.

If that’s you in your avatar, you already look better than Bostin ever will.

Why would you take advice from someone who looks worse?
 
But what you said, is like going on a music forum? Telling people ive been a linkin park fan and asking what kind of music they played lately
Damn throwing linkin park under the bus!
You just pissed off half the guys on this forum. :cool:
 
I think we've taken the wrong approach on this matter. There is a place for "coaches" like Boston and they serve their clients very well. The service they provide so well is to teach people how NOT to do things.

If you manage to survive their "coaching" then you've learned valuable information on what to avoid for the rest of your life.

Some people just have to learn through personal experience (failure).

Bro, spot on. I have paid crazy amounts for "high level" coaches, and I've worked with a number of people many people here know of or would recognize. I learned so much shit, and compiled my "greatest hits album" of what I liked, and what I didn't. Add in my own outside research and I put together a PRETTY solid template that seems to work well for MOST people.
 
That Bostin guy sounds a little touched:



Go to 6:20 to hear about his new cycle "after quitting heavy cycles"

you consider that still heavy but its all relative to me thats nothing to him thats nothing and to any real pro i'm sure they wot be wowed by it......still isnt necessary at all to look like him though hes not very big at all. the weight is there but he doesnt look 260-270 like hes claimed sometimes

His ninja turtle abs ruin his whole physique.

How can you take that much gear and look that bad? It's like he doesn't even work out, he just takes gear and uses SEO.

You're missing the context, he says he's going off the big doses - and you can hear Palumbo saying that it's still a big cycle. I'd think Palumbo knows more about it than anyone on this board.
