    Cluster-HST

    Bryan, what do you think about cluster-style-HST, in which there is no set pattern for rep-count and set-number? For example if you were to simple take you 1RM or 5RM and start with say 60% of that weight, and bang out say 20 reps with that weight, (not hitting failure but 1-2 reps from it)...

    MAX OT vs HST

    lifting for a pump

    I beleive i read somewhere that the muscle is "done" when u feel a slight/mild stretch on the muscle, similiar to when u stretch. Not sure if i read pump, but like dkm said it COULD be there.

    No Swimming during days off

    my best guess, swimming is VERY metabolically taxing. here are a few stats. for every mile traveled Jogging - 100 cals running - 100 cals walking - 100 cals biking - 50 cals swimming - 200 cals

    No of Sets

    Bryan i was thinking it could be really helpful if you could make a complete and detailed journal of one FULL HST cycle you complete. like sets, reps etc i think it'd be really handy to look over.

    No of Sets

    do you have a specific # of reps you like to hit??? like for example supposing for squats you'd want to hit 30 reps.. so during the 15s you might only need to do 2 sets, while during the 10s and 5s you may need as many as 6-8 how do you go about keeping them # of reps total constant??

    i think you look pretty impressive, shouldn't take much to get lean for you. eating clean and pletny cardio tends to work well for me. (7 days a week)
