Hi gbglifter. I'm 6 weeks into my 3rd cycle but still don't feel I'm progressing hypertrohpy wise. I am happy with my strenth gains which continue to shoot up. I will be doing 1 more week of this cycle starting tomorrow trying to push for new 5 rep maxes and then I will have to do another cut...

Well done. I'm struggling to get results with HST myself. What was your routine?

As anyone ever read Steve Reeve's training book? Some of the principles are similar to HST, total body work outs. He believed the optimum time to train again was 36 hours. He also advocated more carbs than protein which I think was rarer back then. But like conventional body building programs...

Mick. My job pretty much has me sitting down all day. So my calories will be less. gbglifter. I like lean gains. It freed me from the fact I thought I had to eat 6 times a day. I naturally don't feel like eating upon waking up so skipping breakfast is easy for me. Before reading lean gains I...

I do cardio when I'm trying to lose fat. Usually 2 miles 2 - 3 times per week. 2000kcals is tolerable adpowah. Going under that i'm usually too hungry to stick at it

I'll look into getting them checked. Rihad. I don't think I can go lower than 2000 cals. I did try but it's too uncomfortable and I can't stick to that

I don't think I did lol. I sometimes had a cheat day on saturday. But towards the end I took 2 weeks off at Christams (inlcuding training) I ate what I wanted and gained about 4 pounds. After Christmas I went back to my 2000 kcals a day. I only lost 3 pounds in 3 months. So I came off my diet

I tried Rihad. But I couldn't get leaner and I was getting tired of going to the gym and not having results. After 1 and a half years I needed to increase calories so I could start progressing in the gym again for morale as well as trying to build muscle

I had my thyroid tested. Thats fine. I don't know my test level. I will look into that. By the way i'm 31

My previous posts seem to have been removed. I wrote a long account of my training. To cut it short. I've been training around 13 years now. Always the 1 body part per week stuff. About 3 years ago I got into strength training (stronglifts etc) believing it to be the key to size. I put around 28...

I wrote quite a long post about my training history in an earlier post if you can check it out. The top and bottom of it is I struggle to get lean when dieting and only seem to get fat when eating to gain muscle. Totentanz. I am pretty in tune with my body and can usually tell what is water...

Hi. I was under the impression the forum was down. I've been trying to come to it through the main HST website for the last month or so and just getting an error page. On the off chance I just typed HST forum into google and found it is all fine. Anyway. I've done my second cycle + sd and I've...

I usually keep volume low. Just 1 set of 5 which I have carried over from stronglifts. What I'm trying to get say is does doing deadlifts interfere with the sub maximal training of hst? Because deadlifts will always be heavier than other lifts even training light and it uses every muscle. When...

Can deadlifts hinder hst results? With deadlifts most likely being the heaviest weight you can lift and using every muscle in the body does it undo the de-conditioning that you need to do with HST in order to cause the muscle to grow with lighter weight? Hopefully i am explaining what I mean...
