Hi, so I'm talking to my mate at work and he brings this stuff out. Sesame Halva its called and its 50% crushed sesame seeds and 50& honey. Per 100g its 520 cals, 13.6g protein, 45.6g carbs and 31.4g fat. I couldnt' beleive it was 520 calories for this little block! Would this be a good...

Thanks for your replies. I think in my original question I was confusing stiff legged and straight deads. After doing a bit more searching I think I'm going to try and alternate between doing squats and SLDL's on workout A and deadlifts and leg curls for workout B. The SLDL's are going to be...

Hi all, I've never really done deadlifts but I keep reading about how good they are for growth stimulation etc. I suppose I've avoided them because of worries over injuring my back. Anyway, I would like to try and bring in deads (not stiff legged ones, that really would kill my back) but I'm...

Howdy, this is probably nothing to worry about but I get twitching muscles usually the day after a HST workout. Anyone else get this or know what is happening to cause this. I've never noticed it after any other type of training as far as I can remember. TIA, Jazzer :)

lol @ jreps Jazzer :)

Stunt your growth, hell no. Quite the opposite. I wish I knew about HST when I was 16 years old. Go for it mate, watch your body change using the best training there is. You'll get stronger, bigger and increase your bone density. Just keep an eye on your diet and you can't go wrong. Jazzer :)

Please can someone expand on what this technique is or provide a link? I've done a bit of googling and can't find anything. Cheers, Jazzer :)

Merry Christmas all, thanks for keeping me entertained and informed since well before I actually joined in July 2004. Also, thanks to Bryan for showing us the way with commom sense and well applied research. I hope you all have a really good Christmas and a Happy New Year. Jazzer :)

Mate, you probably only lost 7 pounds because you were sick and had the shits. If it was me I would wait a week and start the cycle again. You can't be that conditioned after 2 workouts so I would use the same maxes as before. Drink enough water and eat and sleep well and hit it in a week matey...

Thanks guys, I guess I'll just have to work round it. I was thinking about asking if they could break it again and set it properly but that is probably a bit of a gamble. It is made worse by pressing movements so maybe I'll try a cycle with upright rows and DB flyes instead of my beloved...

Hi all, a few years back I broke my left arm at the elbow and its making doing anything past the 5's pretty difficult. Its not really a muscle pain but I think it is from connective tissue moving over a now uneven or unsmooth surface around the elbow area. I'm not sure wether to call it a day...

Hmm... dunno. They don't give much away on that page do they & I'm not spending $80 to find out. All I know is that HST is free and it works, nuff said. Jazzer :)

Hey guys, thanks a lot :) there's some nice advice about training and diet there. I might even post some piccies after our first cycle. If she'll let me. :) Appreciated Jazzer :)

Cheers guys, we can't wait to get started. I've just got to finish my 5's and SD then its all systems go. Jazzer :)

Hi all, well my training partner has decided to train with his brother in a gym and try some "convetional" training. Ha! I can almost hear his gains screech to a halt. Anyways, my new training partner is my Wife so I'm interested to hear if anyone has any recomendations for a female...

Hi colby2152, if I've got you right with the skeleton thing I do a straight 3 times a week. B/o row Pulldown Bench press Shoulder press Shrug (not in the 5's) Skullcrusher (not in the 5's) Curls (not in the 5's) DB rear delts I do 1 set of all for 15's, 2 for 10's and 3 for 5's in the above...

OMG some of you guys are heee-uge! I'm 35, a stumpy 5'9, 182 lbs with bf somewhere in the 20% area (looks down at beergut). This is my second cycle after a long layoff for various reasons. I have put on 10lbs of muscle during these two cycles and my upper arms are now 16 inches for the first...

Lol yeh, mines got to be Batman too, along with The Hulk, Arnie and bruce Lee. Jazzer :)

Hi there, I am in my 5's on a cycle where each macrocycle is extended until we, perhaps not hit failure, but come very close to it. The next macrocycles weights are calculated from the new found maximums. I'm no expert but I'm happy with the gains so far in. I've also dropped isolation exercises...

I have always benched to the top of my chest which it also says to do in Fausto's exrx link. Isn't the nipple line a bit low? Jazzer :)
