For exercises using bodyweight such as chins and dips, should we be adding our bodyweight to the weight we are lifting when we are calculating our maxes and then increment backwards? Example....bodweight = 95kgs 5RM Max for dips =40kgs on a weight belt. I've seen alot of people say that 5% (...

Thanks for the prompt reply DKM!!!

Is sd related to cycle length or amount of weight used? Example ....if you do a 4 week cycle should you sd as long as if you do an 8 week cycle? Even if your starting weight for the 15's and finishing weight for the negatives is the same? Does the longer cycle mean your muscles are more...

Bryan if you show me yours, I'll show you mine :D

I would like to see his current routine One More Rep, as the routine in the FAQ'S is over 2 years old. I realise Bryans current routine is not for everyone to follow as we have to determine that ourselves based on the HST principles........but I would love to see what he is doing now as far as...

bump!! anyone else who would like to see Bryans routine please feel free to bump!!

good advice daxie, but make sure any sex you all have is lying down on your back during SD. Dont want to work too many muscles and defeat the purpose of SD !!!!!!!!! :D

bump!! I want to keep this on page 1. I'm sure every member of this forum would love to see what "the man" is doing.

Bryan, we have an example of your routine in the FAQ's but I'm sure many people would want to know what your current routine is. There has been many posts about how to tinker with HST to customise it for certain individuals and I was wondering if you have tried adopting any new methods? Ie...

Bryan, do you have any thoughts on this routine???

xahrx, do you think how long I rest between reps will matter when i'm trying to achieve my 20 reps? Is there anything I need to take into account.....like for my first week trying to get minimal rest then as the cycle progresses take more rest? Does my TUT remain the same?

Lets say I do negs for week 4 at 40kgs, that means in 4 weeks my load has increased 25kgs. for a small muscle like the biceps that is huge......i like it. for the squat I have worked out my 5 rep max at 100kg so in week 1 I will be lifting 40kgs. Thats in increase of 60kg in 4 weeks. I cant wait...

After 5 standard HST cycles I feel like I need to tinker with my routine to kick start my gains, which seem to have slowed over the last 2 cycles. Do you think this cluster style routine will work???  I will use the barbell curl as my example........ My 5 rep max for it is 35kg. I want to use...

@Nemesis....wish I was a genetic freak!! I'm about 12% body fat now. I am just offering an alternative method of eating that I have tried and got results from. I know there are people out there just like me who find counting calories and restricting your eating options a pain in the a..e. You...

For anyone who wants to drop some body fat without calorie counting, check out the abs diet on www.menshealth.com. I've just done 3 weeks and lost 3kgs (6.6lbs) ...all fat!! I hate calorie counting it stresses me out. I used to be a fitness trainer and have weight trained for 13 years so I'm no...
