I am going through the HST articles again and the math seems wrong.
On page [http://www.hypertrophy-specific.com/hst_II.html] it says that a regular split routine would have 9 sets for chest and 8 for back, per week. On the same page there is a sample HST routine with 9 sets for chest and 12 for back, per week.
But this sample HST routine is totally wrong. On page [http://www.hypertrophy-specific.com/hst_notes.html] there is another sample HST routine with 6 sets for chest and 6 for back, per week.
When I read the FAQ, the second week of 5s calls for 1 set per exercise. So this is 3 sets for chest and 3 for back, per week.
Is it me or these numbers prove that the typical HST routine is lower volume than the split routine, despite what the first page says?
