Unfortunetly not. 1. I live in small city where is only gym and it is closed on saturdays. 2. I have some things which i have to do. Xmas parties are evil!

How draining do you find your workouts at this stage in your cycle? If you still feel fairly fresh afterwards, then you could increase the volume by a set or two, particularly for the bigger compound movements. That'll get you up to around 16-20 total reps for the major muscle groups which is a good amount of TUT. Keep up the good work.

Fri 30.12.2016 3 sets 4 reps Squat - 90kg Bench-press - 75kg Barbell row - 50kg Seated Dumbbell press - 2x22kg Dips - BW+5kg Abs - 14 reps Today will be final workout of my first HST cycle. Evethough i have that training afternoon i would like to say some my observation now. I set some goals - weight lifning goals and fat loss. Right now i think i can say that i am sure that i was succesfull in the weight liftig part. The fat loss part is not that great. I probably did lost some fat but not that much amount i wanted. But what is important for me, i can see results. Specialy the strenght one, i really feel much stronger than before. And i am pretty sure that the little failure with fat lost is because my bad diet - i ate lot of sugar. Next time i need to have much stronger will regarding beer and candies. Anyway overall i am satisfied, i see lot of things i can improve but that i had some results and there is lot of shits to improve motivates me probably even more! This week i have to find next training program, i will continue with logs here eventhough it wont be HST now. I do not see any problem with that and i will definitely do second HST program in near future (2-3 months i guess). If you have any tips i would be glad to hear it. Happy new year guys!
So i have some new training program which i would like to start next week. It is again FB and 3x week. I attached spreadsheet so you can see my whole program- i have to figure out some weights("???") for few exercises though. Anyway it is for 8 weeks. So you can see numbers from 1-8. Core are always variation of 3 exercises these are signed A,B and C. Then i have 4 different variation of assistance exercises. So i will go W1: Mon - A+1a, Wed B+2a, Fri+1b etc... it is all in spreadsheet. Feedback is of course welcome. I am scared of one think at the moment, that amount of reps+set for each session is too much, but i will try and then adjust accordingly. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ge4gW_cx1IRa8j6MrV0hD85-xTgMswq5rtzze_gMsSQ/edit?usp=sharing

Mon 9.1.2017 Bench press - [email protected] Barbell row - [email protected],5kg Legpress - [email protected] Dips - [email protected] Biceps barbell curls - [email protected]+5kg Abs - [email protected] So i started FEST. I expect that first weeks will be quite easy. Yesterday i felt super well. I think i am little confused from proper Barbell row form. Do you have anyone some instruction video or article which you can recomend? There are plenty of these on web but i seriously don't know which one are useful.
I would suggest Pendlay Rows, where you place bar back on the floor for every rep as this will help prevent a lot of the 'cheat' reps, if not look on http://www.bodybuilding.com/exercises/ for additional exercises
