Got back from holiday in Bali... surprisingly my weight stayed the same as before i left when i came back. *phew* was so worried i'd put on lots of fats since i ate lots of "wrong" foods during the trip. heh heh.
anyway, training yesterday: HST Cycle 2, week 3-4, training 6, 2/8/07 » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |

QUOTE(King83 @ Aug 3 2007, 06:04 PM) oooh... HST u buat 3 sets? The sets is actually up to you. it was recomended to do 1 set for the 5 rep max. but i rested and tried to dish out more... but as you can see, sometimes the 2nd or 3rd not are not succesful... as in only up to 3 reps.. good, cos i was starting to think that 2 sets is a bit too little  but why sometimes u increase ur weight as you progress in sets? i tot the only time u increse weight is on the next session? e.g. 1st session = 50% of max weight, 2nd session = 60% of max weight. thanks    I'm not 100% sure bout the second question.. but i think you're asking about it in the same training day right? like the last sets on the calf press and the last workout? if so its cos i didn't really feel like that was my real max for that day. felt as tho i could use heavier weights... so i just went ahead and added a couple more plates. but you're actually right, should only increase the next session. |

Yeap, you guys are right. sometimes when not on form, can't really finish.
however, in the HST guide by Bryan Haycock, he said its actually ok if you can't finish.. the idea is to fatigue your muscles... so if thats achieved b4 reaching the pre-set amount of reps is still ok... King, for a guy that just got out of madcow/ripptoe... going up to 15 reps makes you run out of breath pretty quick... even if only doing body weight squats for 15 reps... you'll realize you're ald panting... if you check back the earlier part of my journal.. you can see me saying that all the time.. |

QUOTE(jones007 @ Aug 8 2007, 01:07 PM) 3 sets? there u go screwing program again Lol, try squatting heavy for 15 reps straight... its a killer... you'll be dragging your sorry arse around the gym to complete the rest of the training.

Just finished one week break and i lost 1kg on the break. body weight at 68kg when i started lifting for HST Cycle 3.
My take on HST so far: I feel that its good in the sense that the whole body worksout and recovers in the next 2 days meaning overall growth for about 6 days a week on training weeks. (this is just theory based, I'm not so certain about the truth and actual results) However, since its full body workouts... its hard to add focus on favourite body parts or more importantly, lagging body parts. however, i've added a little bit more volume for my delts and arms. and see how that'll workout within the HST programme. this move made my overall training session longer than b4. but i still only train 3 days a week.

Another thing i realised bout HST. The first training session after the strat deconditioning is a killer. My quads and arms were sore like mad for those puny weights that i lifted...

Dunno la... i'm thinking its the Strategic deconditioning that might have caused it. Or maybe too much lactic acid cos its 10 reps.
anyway, the feeling is painful but awesome! i know that sounds kinda sadistic.. but its more of a sense of satisfaction that i managed to train that hard. hopefully it'll add more size to me legs.  |

bf%: 18% 18% is a bit on the high side. i'm considering to begin cutting right away or after i complete this cycle. hmmm.... most probably after this cycle since the next 5 weeks is not gonna be conducive for my cutting diet...HST Cycle 3, wek 1-2, training 4, 3/9/07 After adding more exercises here and there, my training session is stretched to 1.5 hours per session. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « |
