    I've done the latter, in times past, though not as part of HST.

    I will try that on my next cycle then. I am taking my SD week next week, so this is perfect timing to change things up a bit. Thanks!

    That's like 30 reps myo-reps style? Do you try to finish initial 15 reps normal style, adding pauses afterwards?

    I go 15 - 25 reps straight depending on what day of the 15s, then shoot for at least 5 more shots of 5 reps each. When I can't do 5 reps, I quit.

    Ha! Yeah, squats are a different story. They kick my a** enough with straight sets.
