    Could you guys crtique this for me?

    Well, I have all but officially scrapped my whole HST routine. I made it into the first couple of workouts of the 10's and felt like I was using ineffective weights. I got that feeling with the first couple workouts of 15's but by performing the reps slow, I could sort of get an effective...

    ? for those who don't get enough protein

    I personally don't eat any kind of meats or dairy products, so getting "enough" protein can be quite difficult for me. I estimate that on days that I don't work out I eat about 60 - 90 grams. ( I don't meticulously count my calories - protein / carbs / fats ). And on days that I do...

    The HST worksheet

    I'm thinking there isn't a "worksheet" then... hehe. No problem. I'm going to make something up in MS works so I can bring a paper with me to the gym. That way I can keep a good track of my workouts and add comments to each workout. Patrick

    Could you guys crtique this for me?

    My Routine I just did my first workout (15's). I left shoulder work out of this cycle to recover from overtraining the way I was working out before HST. I had to change the increments on lat pull downs and seated rows because I couldn't get the 5lb rubber thing on the weight machine. So for...

    Why Eat Meat?

    Some of you guys can come up with some very funny pro-meat stuff, I have to admit. I just wanted to say that I have been eating a basically vegan* diet for nearly a year now, and I feel great. I'm, 6ft and I weighed 225 and was 28% body fat. After giving up all meat and dairy, I lost about 5...

    Newb help please?

    I guess I could have mentioned I work out at a public gym. All of the bench press stations are fixed incline/decline or flat. There is one adjustable bench but it is not connected to anything that supports a barbell.

    Newb help please?

    I am in the same predicament, I think I might have access to an adjustable bench, but would ( I assume ) have to go with dumbbells. I'd really like to know how others manage the "slight" part of the slight incline.

    Need help getting started with HST

    Yes 24 hr has the gravitron machine which assist my dips, but as I mentioned, dips just don't seem practical for me there. I can easily do 15 dips, but adding weight to my dips can prove difficult. The dip machine there doesn't have alot of room around the foot area because of the assist thing...
