So when I make my great comeback, I’m thinking of going back to your program with a few tweaks (what a surprise, coming from me). Here’s what I have in mind:
Week 1: 4 x 8 at specified percentages (+ accessory at a flat 3 x 8)
Week 2: 5 x 5 at specified percentages (+ accessory at a flat 3 x 8)
Week 3: 5 x 3 at specified percentages (+ accessory at a flat 3 x 8)
Week 4: 5 x 2 at week 3 percentages + 5% (+ accessory at a flat 3 x 8)
Week 5: 5,4,3,2,1+ (+ accessory at a flat 3 x 8)
Reset and start over. Probably won’t deload at all for awhile since my base will be so low starting back.

I’d appreciate your feedback. [/quote]
Looks good how many accessories per day? Any high rep conditioning?

Probably four or five (max) accessories. I could throw in the set of Fischer’s Finishers for the big 3. Would that satisfy your need for high-rep conditioning? I promise to start doing some cardio conditioning work when I’m able. I know I’ve been a big slug in that department.

The conditioning aspect is often overlooked by strength athletes and well a better conditioned athlete is an athlete less prone to get hurt and is generaly stronger as well.
Not posting any workouts due to having a Sinus infection and small hospital stay last weekend. Thing is I cannot let the pacemaker leads get infected or I am in trouble.
Bweight @ start of 2012 was 239 full clothed after 2 meals . Now 233 fully clothed. 2 meals
will keep doing DC as well.
I am pleased one of my clients/friend is posting in here as well. Please welcome her (catgirl68)
Did a fullbody screw around day today just because I had to exercise out of the house --to stop from being stir crazy!
Wow, I would never have thought that the leads could get infected. Do all sinus infections require a hospital visit because of that risk? Get this from your youngest?
Like reading about the DC training, so much variety.

The leads go into the heart. With a Sinus infection and with me having only 3 lobes (4 is normal) in my lungs the sinus infection could get into my lungs rather fast and then bads things start to happen, like pneumonia and water on the heart for me.
Oh and Dc is awesome. I really think (for me) this the best way to get stronger (rest pause) and the variety is great on the exercises.

Use a preacher curl bench and take off the seat and then lean/lay over the bench facing the seat so your arms on on the pad side thst is flat and curl that way. No sway-no leaning= no cheating.
Ah, in all honesty I’m pretty good (anal) about not cheating anyway. Then again, I haven’t tried weights of the magnitude a lot of you guys use. May need the extra reinforcement when I get there. Thanks, man.

It is not about the cheating for the exercise it is the constant contraction of muscle and contstant tension. I can squeeze harder on these than preacher curls.

Congratulations. It’s hard for some people to understand how hard it is to claw your way back to a PR after a serious injury and/or chronic pain. I’m thrilled for you.
