I have seen some posts indicating that some are continuing 5s past the two week period indicated by the "Official HST Method" article.
I am wondering how you go about continuing the 5s and maintaining the progressive loading principle.
On your third week of 5s do you go back to the weight that you were using on the first week and work back up? That doesn't seem to make much sense, but if you are already at your max at the end of the second week I don't know how you go up from there and continue the progression.
This is my first time using HST and while I have done some weight training since my teenage years off and on I am by no means a bodybuilder. I am a bit confused between reading the "Official HST Method" and what I see in forum posts.
I had assumed you did the same number of sets whether you were in the 15, 10, or 5 phase from the official method, but from reading posts it seems you double on 10s and triple on 5s. Just a little lost.
