Hi all,
My first post. I'm just starting with HST after about two years of steady weight training (mostly guided by Ian King's Book of Muscle). My HST workout, which I borrowed with slight modifications from a post in one of the forums here, looks like this:
Workout A:
high pull
squat
bench, slight incline
bent-over row
overhead press
abs
Workout B:
snatch-grip jump shrug
deadlift
dips
chins or lat pulldowns
overhead press
abs
I'm planning on alternating workouts A and B on a Tues Thurs Sat schedule. My question: I can manage about 15 body-weight dips, and was wondering what would be a good substitute for dips during the first two weeks of the 15-rep stage as i work toward the 15-rep-max at bodyweight. I was thinking about doing bench dips, with a weight on my lap, but was wondering if anyone has any other suggestions.
Thanks in advance,
Tim
