rest pause means ldo as many reps as you can ..lets say you get 8 stop take a few deep breathes for about 15-20 secs then bang out a few more reps then deep breathes again bang out a few more reps keep repeating the scenario..
so you may get 8 reps
then 4 reps
then 2 reps
another 2
and a single
thats 17 rest paused reps

8/15 is total rep range. most i have seen are 11/15.
anyway do all you can do til failure. 10-15 sec break. then again to failure, 10-15 sec break then again to failure. 7/3/1 is an ideal rp set. if you get in the 11-15 range next time around on this movement you add weight. if you below the 11 then next time around you stay.
PM in-human and hell give it to you better as he does dc stuff very well.

i rack it and relax while i take deep breaths. now if its some kinda leg pressing movement i dont rack it but i dont rp leg movements. those are Straight set. same with deads or a variation of deads.
bro you gotta remeber too that i am a PLer and dont do rp often. i messed with dc's routine for a few months to make somne changes to it so that it would be more PLing friendly. it was lacking partcularly in the posterior chain movements. i made several changes and have a decent routine out of it now for those who like dc style of training. it doesnt have a big carry over to PLing though. i mean its still a good routine for overall strength and size but not specialized enough for PLing. with the mods i made it prolly a better 2xw routine than 3xw. esp if you pushing yourself.
