Appreciate the response Mickc. I believe that post was detailing the HST on a cut which I did and almost done with. At this point hoping to maintain weight and turn any fat left into muscle or perhaps gain something like 5-10 pounds of muscle which is why I wanted to switch it up a bit.
I know...
Understood.
Thinking about jumping into a 3 day split once I'm done with this cycle. Read somewhere it's always good to switch up the routine to sort of " confuse " the body. Looking to make some gains perhaps add some mass in arms/back/chest. I know this is HST forum but with your expertise on...
Hey totentanz I'm towards the end of this HST cycle and a bit confused about the negatives at the end. My thinking is that during negatives I take the max for each workout do 1 set to failure for each body part or am I completely off here?
Thanks.
As long as the routine works and you're making gains that's all that matters. 2 workouts in so far and feeling good, haven't felt a pump like this for a little while but slowly working my way back into it.
Sounds good fellas thanks. I'll keep the same routine for the full cycle then perhaps mix it up on the next cycle. Doing flat bench now next cycle I'll do incline, rows to pull down's, etc. You guys still running the HST program or another routine?
Hey quick question fellas, thanks for all the suggestions so far. Started HST yesterday feeling nice and sore today after not lifting for a while. Wondering should I switch up the exercises for example 1 day Rows the following workout Lat Pull down and flat bench to incline, etc. Or stay with a...
I was thinking 1 or the other but perhaps both or rotate weekly. I heard close grip is solid as well I guess I'll go flat bench for chest and close grip for triceps. Thanks.
Fellas looking for some more insight on my last post. Any recommendations are welcomed. Thanks. Getting back into lifting after a couple month hiatus due to shoulder injury.
I read on a thread that I believe was on the bodybuilding.com forum where many suggested skipping the 15's for intermediate and up lifters, also since I did it before I thought maybe I should skip it this time around. You think I should do it anyway to feel my way into it?
Overall I don't put...
Great stuff guys. I dialed up HST for a cut couple months ago, lost the desired weight but unfortunately had to stop working out for a while to treat a shoulder condition. Fully recovered now and have reached my weight target looking to start HST again but skipping to the 2x10 then 3x5 after...
Understood. As far as the routine is concerned whether the rack pulls or row's I should def do lat pull down as well correct? Reason I'm asking is usually with these HST routine's theres usually only 1 back exercise but from what I understand rows and lat pull down work different muscles in the...
