This is my first time doing HST. I'm 22 about 5'8" I would consider myself an experienced trainer, My ultimate goal is to compete in a natural bodybuilding show when i feel ready. I am doing this program looking for as much results as possible, looking to gain muscle, but for a while i will be cutting, so my main goal trying to lose fat to get into the single digit bodyfat %. I've always been a fan of increasing training frequency and i really believe this style of training will work great for me. I've read through the HST online book a couple of times and studied the concepts for a while, i did my RM assesment for 15's, 10's and 5's and tomorrow will be my first day of SD...I'll take a little over a week off then i'm excited to get started.
I tried to set up my exercises in the right order with antagonist pairings.
Here's my sample workout in order (w/o am/pm split):
My cals will be below matinence because my primary goal is fat loss...but slightly higher on training days, MWF. Higher carbs on 15's and 10's, and about 30% of calories from carbs on the 5's.
I'm really looking to get the most out of this program as possible so i was thinking about training 2x per day with the MWF split...i think that could be best for fat loss but it might not be best for my first time doing HST. And i will be doing cadio on off days.
