I tried to search for an asnwear on the forum, but coudn't really find one. My question concerns moving from 10 to 5 in case of doing upper/lower version of HST.Normally one is suggested to make 6 workouts (2 weeks) and move from 10reps to 5reps. Unluckily for me the Full Body version of HST was a bit too much, and I decided to do the upper/lower version, 3 times a week. Should I stick to rule of progressing after 2 weeks, or should I change rep range after 6 workouts of lower and 6 workouts of uppers (which would mean doing 4 weeks).Thanks in advancePawel ;-)
 
thanks ;-) I decided not to use my A/B but the one from from SIMPLIFY AND WIN! So I hope that within next 7=8 weeks I'll become one of HST winners ;-)if I may use this thread to ask another question, do you think that alternating between Underhand Pullups and Overhand Rows in A/B is ok or would you rather go with both exercsises done in same way (both underhand/both overhand), or it doesn't really matter?

It doesn't matter. One will hit the lats more, the other the middle back more. If you need more work on the lats, do the rows underhand as well. But it won't make a huge difference at this point.
