Digital Literacies and New Ways to Build Muscle

Since the internet took off, people have been swimming in a sea of information that was never available in books or magazines before. New training methods have taken off and there seems to be new ones coming out everyday. Some of the ones that have gained noticeable notoriety over the past few years are:

HIT Training
Mountaindog Training
DC Training
Y3T
FST-7
5x5
German Volume Training

More information on these methods and others can be found here.

The last two have been around for decades but didn't reach mainstream lifters until the time of the internet. All of the trainers behind these methods have gone against the methods that have seemingly worked for ages because they found them to be less than optimal for the average person. For the purposes of this project, I will be highlighting Mountaindog Training and DC Training because they have been proven to be extremely successful in building the bodies of their clients, but differ from each other greatly.
