So I just found out about HST and I'm very excited to start this program. I've been reading articles for hours today it seems like about HST but I just have a couple questions which I'm sure someone, somewhere has already asked so thanks for your patience if I end up asking a question that has already been asked and answered.
Question 1: I plan on using two workouts A and B, and I was wondering if I should split my workouts into two complete body workouts where I'd be doing one exercise for each muscle or should I do instead all my upper body exercises one day and then all my lower body the next day. I should also add that I plan on upping the frequency so that I'm doing 6 workouts a week. I'll do 2 days on and 1 day off.
Question 2: Is this a good list of lifts for HST? (What should I add and take away?)
Bench
Dumbbell flys
Military press
Lateral Raises(I plan on only decreasing the weight by 5 pounds since I can only lateral raise 20 lbs for 15 reps.)
Romanian Deadlift
Lat pulldown or assisted chin-ups I haven't totally decided yet.
EZ Bar curls
DB Curls
Tricep Extensions
Rope Extensions
Squats
Leg Press
Shrugs
Question 3: Is it beneficial to instead of doing 1x15 at the start but doing 2x15, and then 2x10, and then 3x5?
I'm sorry for the lengthy post. I'm just trying to get something straightened out before I start this great training program.
