Hey Nark.......cheers for the reply..

i was goin to use rest pause on
Deadlifts-back
Bench Press-Chest
Squat/Calf raises-Legs
Mill Press-Shoulders
D curls for-Biceps
Triceps-Floor Press

So youd say not to do the deads and do rows instead....any other tips??

I wouldn't use 'em on biceps or triceps at all to be honest. Too big a risk of injury to tendons/ligaments IMO. Once a flexor is fried, healing is a bitch. I know, trust me.

On chest, I like to use rest pause to do singles with weights that I'd normally get a solitary double for.

I try to go for 10 sets of 10 singles, as opposed to one set of doubles.

Means that I'm at the bench for a while, but I get the dual benefit of moderate volume and very-high resistance.
