Greetings fellow steel benders!
I have been doing about 5 HST cycles since last year. Good results especially in the beginning. But I guess I am now past my noob gains and things have plateaued. About to turn 37, busy at work, was shock by an earthquake here in Tokyo last year as well. Was actually in the gym when the big one hit. My home gym, a bench with a low and high pulley arrived the evening of the earthquake as well.
Anyhow I got over those shocks got out of the expensive sports club and I now have a nice little home gym set up with dumb bell sets, a low and high pulley that I use for lat pull down cable rows and tri push downs. I have come to enjoy my home gym and getting quite used to dumb bell training although I have very thin wrists and I find it hard to balance too much weight when doing chest dumb bell press as compared to barbell chest press for example.
Until now I have always felt that 15s have given me a great pump and I am not sure if I have benefited that greatly from the 5s. Now doing mostly dumbbell training as well prevent me from increasing the weights too much on the 5s, my wrists kind of holding me back.
I was trying to search about 15/12/8 and that is what I think I will be planning for m next cycle.
Any input on the idea? Could it still possibly lead to as much hypertrophy or possibly more than training heavy with 5s or even heavier?
I think I will try anyhow just interested in what people might think.
Peace
