Tell me what you know about DFT and how your routine applies to its concepts. I'll see if I can help you or not.

lets use U1 for ex. All Push ex. are heavy low reps, and all pull ex. are light high reps. Boyd designed something similar to this for a few years back I just kept better close to what he had change some ex. around. He also had it set up with 1 1/2 min rest first micro then min rest 2nd micro and 30sec rests 3rd micro.

You havent said anything related to dual factor theory. DFT is not routine specific. Its a concept. I may not be understanding you completely, but here's a thread with a bunch of links about DFT Overtraining/Recovery/Dual Factor Theory

He is not really understanding any training concept anyway...

He wanted to do DC's (But was not even doing something close to it) and when we fixed it and told him what to do he did not like it. He then switched up to DFT (his DFT routine looks like the DC one except he plays with volume) but he doesn't get/apply any DFT principle under...

And I think he don't want to learn it either... All he want is to do a training with Lower body twice a week and upper body twice a week...

the days i'm going heavy on exersizes with lower volume getting close to failure would be like loading(correct?) Then the others which is supposed to be higher reps(eventhough I went to heavy and missed my rep range) would be the unloading or fitness side of it(Correct?) Can you not run the two concurrent like that? And then end with a week off from lifting (deload). And I am trying to understand the principles. And yes I want to train each part 2x a week through the summer, to take advantage of not having school. Once fall hits it will be 40hours a week at work and a full class schedule. I've trained with this push/pull style program before had good results, i thought it was following DFT.

DFT is based on the idea that fitness lasts 3 times as long as fatigue. As you workout you accumulate fatigue. The fatigue builds up to a point that you stall out or begin to get weaker. Its not that your losing muscle, your just too burnt to show the gains you've made. When you've reached this point, you back off the volume, and give your body a chance to recover. As you recover, the fatigue wears off and you begin to see the results of your work. Basically instead of working out one day, and recovering the next, you workout for 2 to 3 weeks, and spend a week or 2 recovering. During the load phase, you try to overreach by an increased volume. During the deload phase you give yourself a chance to recover by reduced volume. In both phases intensity is kept high(in other words you keep lifting heavy weights). Thats basically it.

I saw you check'n out the DFT sticky. Did you read the first post?

Overtraining/Recovery/Dual Factor Theory

Did you check out the link in the first post?

If you've read it, I encourage you to read it again after what I've told you.

One more thing....... DFT IS NOT A BEGINNER ROUTINE. ITS FOR ADVANCED LIFTERS.

I guess i've sort of followed DFT even when doing a regular 3 day split, once I start feeling fatigued through the day, feel **** in the gym, and DOMS start lasting longer than normal, I'll take a week off from lifting to fully recover. I'll probably do this split like I've drawn up, for another couple weeks, then the 25-27, hit every part once, because I wont be lifting the 28th-july 5th, I'm getting married the 30th and I'll get home from the honeymoon on the 5th.
