Hi all
I started lifting weights about 4 months ago, and 2 weeks ago I started my first HST cycle. I have just finished my 15's and I'm looking for some feedback on what I've done so far. any feedback from experienced HST'ers would be appreciated.
all weights are in KG. all exercises done for 1 set excluding warmups:
15's:
------
Squat: 35 - 40 - 40 - 45 - 45 - 50
Leg Curls: 25 - 25 - 30 - 30 - 35 - 35
Standing Calf Raise: 50 - 50 - 55 - 55 - 60 - 65
Lat Pulls: 35 - 35 - 40 - 45 - 45 - 50
Dumbell Rows: 12.5 - 12.5 - 15 - 15 - 17.5 - 17.5
Dumbell Curls: 5 - 5 - 7.5 - 7.5 - 10 - 10
Incline Dumbell Press: 10 - 10 - 12.5 - 12.5 - 15 - 15
Dumbell Shoulder Press: 7.5 - 7.5 - 7.5 - 10 - 10 - 12.5
Tricep Pulldown (cable): 25 - 30 - 35 - 35 - 40 - 40
Shrugs: 12.5 - 12.5 - 15 - 15 - 17.5 - 17.5
as you can see I'm not very strong, and I'm a little concerned about zigzagging. my 10 rep maximums arn't too different from the 15 rep maximums so I'm worried that the 10's won't be different enough from the 15's.
thanks for your help
