Hi, this is my first post here. I have been reading up on HST for the last couple of weeks, and posted this in another forum, but didn't get a response.
I am going to give it a try. But I would like some suggestions on my program. First of all, I am going to be doing this at home, with nothing but a bench, and dumbbells. Secondly, I have had lower back broblems this summer, and don't want to hurt it again, and I also have tennis/golfers elbow, and wrist problems (this is one reason I want to go with HST, I hope to get some tenden, and joint strength). Thirdly, I am just starting out with lifting, I lifted a little in hi-school, but that was 15 years ago. I just started a couple of weeks ago, but have just been trying out different lifts to see what I like. I havn't lifted anything for a week, so it seems like a good time to try out HST. I will probably start out next week.
Here is what I am planning on.
sit ups (not HST, probably like 30-40 without any added weight)
db squats
inc. db press
db shoulder press
one arm bent db row
curls
calf raise
lateral raises
some others that I am considering
strait leg db dead lift (I am worried about my back though)
shrugs
lunges
I would like to work my legs good since they need it the most, but am not sure how to do it with only dumbbells, and a bad back.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
David
