Hey guys

I plan on starting my first cycle of HST and have a few questions I hope some of you can help me out. I did search but couldn't find the right answer I was looking for.

I plan on doing a really simplified version of HST 3x week, cardio non workout days and currently cutting.

Workout A / B

-Squats / Deadlift
-Bench press
-Rows
-Military Press
Might throw some ab work 1-2 times a week

1. From what I gathered SD was not recommended if the person was going to cut. Right now I plan on doing atleast a 7-9 days of SD but just want to know your opinion.

2. Since I am cutting for this cycle should I just do the normal hst routine or should I modifiy it somewhat. For example should I skip week 1-2 1x15 and replace it with 3 weeks of 2x10 and 3 weeks of 3x5 followed by negatives or another 2 weeks of 5.

Any adive would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Your plan is perfect. Good exercises, and yes skip the 15s and the SD and just do three weeks of 10s, 3 weks of 5s and 3 weeks of heavy stuff. Maintaining strength with heavy mechanical loading is key to maintaining muscle mass, especially when cutting.
