I'm so new to HST, it's a miracle i didn't mispell it
Okay enuf of that.
here's the scoop. I am 28, about 5'9",180 lbs, i think about 23% BF. I used to work out 3-4 days a week with cardio a couple days a week. I love working out, it makes one feel awesome!!
I got layed off from my job, money wasn't a big issue however i lived approx 45 minutes away from the nearest gym/fitness center. i bought me a machine weight set...worked out about twice on it and quit. the leg press would only go up to about 400lbs(so it said) i think it was way less than that. The cables seemed to be sooo much different than free weights, i hated it.
Jump to now.
i haven't really worked out in 3-4 years. I love the sound of HST not only the awesome results, but you know exactly what you are gonna be lifting and how much way before you hit the weights.
i am still gonna be lifting at home, but i have a nice set of free weights and lots of room.
What advice do ya'll pro's have for a newcomer?
I have started finding my 15,10, and 5 rep maxes.
I will be doing the M/W/F routine
I am planning on 1x15, 2x10, and 3x5 for my cycle? That sound okay for a newcomer. i am only doing 8 exercies. thinking about adding shrugs and forearms though
squats
flat bench using dumbells
Seated shoulder press
bent over barbell rows
barbell curls
lying tricep extensions
standing calf raises
and 1 more.....and my list is at home on my bench(i am at work now)
oh, and abs
Would i benefit more doing this for the first cycle, or adding more exercies. I was planning on this for one cycle and changing it up for the next.
I also will be doing cardio 2 or 3 most likely 3 days a week. I am wanting to drop the bf quite a bit.
i have a fairly clean diet. it consists of grilled fish, protein powder shakes, tunafish , 100% whole wheat bread, chicken, eggs, chicken, lean red meat, chicken, oatmeal(only early in the day), shredded wheat cereal, skim milk, all kinds of beans( i love me some beans), spinach, broccolli, and some fruit here and there.
The only sups I might/will take are protein powder/shakes and maybe some creatine. I don't figure it would benefit much until i get my physique in a good working order....if you know what i mean. Oh and I do take Xenadrine some.....can't you tell by the way i am going on and on???
you guys and gals(possibly???) critique that and tell me what you think. Remember, I used to lift quite often, but nothing like HST, and not very much recently.
thanks for all the monstrous info on the board!! it is priceless!!!
