    New to HST and a question

    I think your increment sizes look fine. The load selection might be a bit awkward, though - something like this would be easier (remember that you don't have to hit your RM load on the 6th workout, the load progression is causing the growth). 10's: Day 1: 50kg 2: 55kg 3: 60kg 4: 65kg 5: 65kg 6...

    High Carb vs. High Fat

    Both fats and aminos can make it into cells just fine without the presence of carbs or insulin.

    Clarification!

    For simplicity, I use the following table: RM for rep range ---- Use this increment 0-25kg/lbs ------------ 1-2.5kg/lbs 25-50 ------------------- 2.5 50-100 ------------------- 5 100-150 ----------------- 7.5 150-200 ------------------ 10 200-300 ------------------ 15 etc

    Where can i buy Calipers in Oslo, Norway?

    You can buy it from us! Athletic City webshop When I started working here, they were carrying the Accu-Measure calipers. I made a couple of phone calls, and we got a good deal on the Slim Guides, which I think are WAY better, and bought 1000 of them. I also made a norwegian user manual for it...

    HSN in Norway

    We are working on it. The only problem now is approval of Sucralose. It's accepted by the EFTA, which means it will be approved - it's only a matter of paper work. We're hoping for a resolution by the end of the year.... Tech Nutrition will carry it.

    AAS and Prohormones with HST

    A few helpful pointers from Bryan Focusing on volume would be better than on frequency. Androgens don't accelerate the rate at which a cell repairs itself or builds proteins. Androgens enhance the magnitude of the response....make sense? I think you will experience better results doing more...

    Optimizing HST

    Recommendations on AM/PM split during your HST cycle You won't last long doubling the volume just because you are using am/pm splits. Here is what I suggest. 1) When using 15s: Go ahead a repeat the am workout in the same day pm workout. Especially when things are very light (1st week of...

    adding L-tyrosine to e/c

    About 1-3g. L-Tyrosine is also a stimulant, aiding in the release of chatecholamines and subsequent fat mobilization.

    What is best for increasing dopamine ?

    Caffeine acts as an antagonist of adenosine, which acts at certain presynaptic receptors to inhibit the release of some neurotransmitters such as glutamate and dopamine. Since caffeine blocks the effects of adenosine, there is an increase in the release of dopamine. L-Tyrosine is a precursor to...

    Creatine during Strategic Deconditioning

    It still takes 3 weeks for creatine levels to drop upon cessation of usage, so a 1-2 week hiatus wouldn't do much. Besides, constant usage is both safe and effective.

    HST + PH (19-nor/4AD) cycle results

    Nice results. My only concern was this statement: This is 2775kcals, or rougly maintenance+800kcal for a voluptious woman weighing 130lbs, not a 180lbs guy. :D

    Vinegar for Better Glycogen Repletion?

    De novo lipogenesis (DNL) or conversion of carbs to fat is a non-issue unless: You overfeed large quantities over several days (700-900g/day for 3-5 days) You get <10% of calories in your diet from fats. You are a rat

    Did you make this up yourself, or did someone actually post this on the Internet and you just cut&pasted it here?

    The Ultimate Diet version 2.0

    It's no problem adapting this diet to HST, when you understand the mechanisms. So for depletion, you could use 15s - given the immense caloric deficit, there is no need for the heavy work here. The so-called 'tension' workout is lower volume, and you can do 1-2 sets of whichever rep range you're...

    And yet another Creatine question...:)

    The abstract says exactly what Aaron said - You may increase the rate of creatine uptake by ingesting it with glucose, but once the muscle is loaded a 2-5g per day dosage is all it takes to maintain levels.

    Diet and nutrition

    The bottom line 1) The leaner you are, the higher your "Partitioning Ratio" (P:Ratio). This means more energy from the diet will be directed towards lean body mass. The opposite is true if you are fat. 2) The P:Ratio also works in the same way while dieting. The leaner you are, the more lean...
