- Will try to do negatives for the dips & chins.
- All weights are in lbs.

Chin (1st set I’ll use wide grip, 2nd set I’ll use Narrow.. is that okay?)

Did my first HST workout today, (Workout A)

Squats - 2x15x70lbs (felt good about the weights)
Flat Bench - 1x15x100, 1x20x100 (weights are pretty light)
Chin 1x8xBW, 1x5,BW (really need to work on these)
bent over lat raise 2x15x15 (good weight)
shrugs 2x15x140 (felt light but grip was weak)
Bicep Curls 2x15x20 (good weight)
Tricep Pushdowns 1x15x(set on 8) (I don't know the weight for these, it was the machine and I set the pin to 8 but the weight was good)
Standing Calf Raises - 1x15x75lbs, 1x15x95 (it seems weird without using the footblock, I get less ROM but gym doesn't have so that sucks)
Hyper-Extensions 2x15x25 (felt great)
Couldn't do abs, had to get back to work

Overall, I'm not too confident about this program but I will stick to it and give it a shot.
I feel like I'm maybe doing too much in 1 session, not too confident about the workout program A & B either but maybe it'll pay off with dedication.
 
well man we have the pretty same feeling about our current HST routine.. I personally feel that we should have faith on the program for I know that it really works and it is the one that suits our bodybuilding goals fast.. however we still dont know how to modify our programs so we can reap the most benefits out of it without crashing to the ground.. As what i've experienced I feel pretty burned out on my HST routine for an unknown reason.. i also need serious help from the HST experts and I know one day im gonna do it properly
