    Upper Body Strength

    Oh yeah, and I don't have access to bench shirts, board presses, or bands. I really don't even know what they are... Anyways I've built considerable strength over 2 years of lifting--roughly a 275-285 bench press, 400 squat, 450 deadlift. I need to get those upper body lifts up--the bench...

    Upper Body Strength

    Vince Gironda

    Hey HST guys, I have been researching and reading through HST for a while now. I never have applied the principles behind it, however. I was wondering how HST compares to Vince Gironda's techniques, which are basically 6x6, 8x8 and even some 10x10. You choose one weight for all sets, and...
