    overreaching and hst

    Any thoughts of combining hst training with more of a dual theory type program? combining the increased intensity in terms of both volume and 1rm range with periods of dropping back to lower volume . ie..I currently follow a steve reeves type routine and add weight and slowly add volume for 3-4...

    Reactions To Muscle

    Ha! Bar fights! Yes, well I am not quite 5-9 and hover between 235-250. seems like some guy 300 lb and 6-5 always wants to start something. Otherwise I always run into that 'well I have a friend and he is a lot bigger than you and can becnh 600lbs...20 times and he don't even work out.

    hoist hc-1 classic plate load

    this is an awesome piece of equipment for the money. you can do all of your upper body training on this. will hold 400 lb plates pretty easily and can add more with some olympic extension rods and decreasing the level of travel on the cable. (so the uprights don't hit the lever arms. This...

    The Ultimate Diet version 2.0

    So I think that really the point seems to be depletion of the carb stores those first few days. I could be wrong, but that it what I got from my first quick perusal of ud2.0

    The Ultimate Diet version 2.0

    why couldn't you do your normal workout, and then just do some overall body high rep circuit on days one and two after the core lifting movements of your routine? Also unless i misunderstood lyle in the book, if you are doing a tkd and it is working for you, then there is no reason to switch...

    Dieting while on HST

    hey this acually looks pretty good. I have tried many different diets both when I was competing and after. This looks like a pretty good balanced approach without getting into too much leptin/ketosis/refeeds/omega-3/crap. all the diets have good and bad points and have their dfenders and detractors

    Tricep exercises

    i think kate has the right idea. usually switching to something like a behind the shoulders(but bad for the shoulders) bench dip, or a triceps kickback or underhand pushdown grip will help. The best alternative if it is really giving you fits is to just not work those triceps for a few weeks...
