I want to start a DC style training (MWF alternating workouts/excercises) where I will be working each muscle basically twice a week. I know it is only 1 rest-pause set per muscle (with x-stretching) but i have average recovery and dont wanna overtrainin.
I also know that there is a lot more to the DC system, but are the workout too much for the average BBer (if done right)? |

Ideally you would want to cycle for DC training.

Frequency is the variable you want to tweak with DC. If yo have shitty genetics and recovery ability off, than you have shitty recovery when on. Maybe a little less so, but shit everyone is different.
Find what works. Some can do 4 day splits with DC, rest pausing everything. Some cant even manage a 2 day split with straight sets. Lots of tweakability.

DC training is for advanced BBers who have exhausted other methods to gain mass.
You need to have access to lots of equipment (no basement or garage gym)
You need to do loads of research
You need to have your diet it check
Build a solid base BEFORE to attempt DC.

I did it for a while and decided I am not far advanced enough to make it worth my while. You need to already be able to lift some heavy ass weight. On the other hand if you want to do it and you are worried about your recovery then rest pausing is not the way to go. You should start out with straight sets anyway and see how it works for you. If you overtrain with straight sets then you definitely don't need to be rest pausing yet.
