True Dat! If we try and keep up with the Zen Master we will end up in traction! The theory behind DC training or any other good training philosophy is to keep making improvements. Adding weight every time is not the only way to improve. I am constantly trying to improve my form, going deeper, with more time under tension, slower negatives, etc. anything that can increase the stress on the muscle trained without adding too much stress on the ligaments and tendons. I have felt more stress on my quads that way versus packing on the poundages. Although I do agree with Steve, a combination of all the above is very effective.
