Prof Welcome to the site. I fully support your decision to try it out! :D IMO, it is the only way of knowing if something works In the meantime, here's something to chew on, from the FAQ-E-book which is downloadable from: FAQ's Hope this gets you started, there is much, much more...

Justin Eating more is a good idea, make sure though that it is absolutely clean, beware of eating 4000 odd calories and letting yourself into the "bulge" world. Check out teh link of John Berardi's E-book, use teh calculations he shows you, they are good, and his advice is also tops...

Jw yep, sounds like you need to read more. John does not give you one, but various diets, the one you are talking about is but one of the many. But it is really the rest that is of importnace, in fact I like the factthat he gives you some guidance on how to do your own diet so...kudus for...

lcars Dan asked me to post it here for whatever reason. I agree with you, lets have Dan put it where it belongs!

I see 70 visits... I sthe download worth it? Some comments, please!

Yeah, us crazy muscle heads However I don't think I am as nuts as Jacky he is beyond cure Yeah, a little slowing down is needed where our ego's are concerned, they tend to get us hurt! Fun answer, dude! I like that! :D

yeah This is why negatives are built into the program exactly to break plateaus. When doing negatives, you are using essentially 3, 2 or even 1 RM's as you only doing the eccentric part of the movement and the partner helps you do the concentric. Then after two weeks of this you SD, after...

Nick HST is adaptable to almost any type of resistance training. You simply have to play around with the increments, what Colby showed you is pretty decent fro a start, but you may want to use other variations. The main point is to increment as you go up in time and down in rep schemes...

Fire Good going dude! Let us get you some balance: Dips close grip - all there heads Skull crucshers or d/b incline extension - all three heads I think IMO that these two above will definitely get the medial head very much involved. Close grip bench - More so the long and lateral heads...

carp Yep, to name a few: Shoulders - a couple of times, latest one last night due to J-reps on the peck-deck, too fast and joint gets out of place due to stopping mid-way. Besides this, during bench a few times, an old one due to lack of warming up - culprit cable reverse rows. :confused...

tdsong Look up in this thread: HST - Topics of interest and voi...la: Pimp my HST E-book

Guys and girls for that matter :D John Berardi has an incredible free e-bbok on nutrition that I think should be part of any HST'iers collection. While I wait for Bryan's input on this, I'll post the links John has asked me to put up:

Hstudent You getting there mate! Greatly reduced your w/o, now let us thorw in another spanner in the works. Try to do your workout, superset style, choose antagonist or same muscle combinations, and along with this reduce your rest slightly (say 45 - 60 seconds max, 30 if you can manage)...

Funny you should mention that! The darn doctors that suggest surgery should use people like you or others before going to the knife! :D Here's an interesting article.

Jester It still should not have become what it is. Disagreement exists since the beggining of time, thus "the great controversy". War, however or throwing of names, whomever the culprit might be does not endorse us going against Bryan's wishes in order to keep this website what it...

Bryan, Dan, someone please lock up this thread This is one disappointing way of discussing scientific matters. It has become non-scientific and worst of all, personal, insulting and just not in the true HST way at all. Remember guys we have already lost Old & Grey because of non-sense...

Hstudent Follow the guys advice it is right. Drop isolations, or minimize drastically. Volume: sets 15's 2 first week - 1 second week 10's 2 right through 5's 3 first week, 2 second week negatives 2 first week, 1 last week This is not written in stone, but just a guideline, usually the...

Neither does putting your ideas out like this, it is not the way Bryan intended for us to workshop things. Some time back we had the DOMS thread and yeah it got funny, and it got serious but I don't think it got this ugly! :mad: I PROTEST! THIS IS NOT THE WAY TO HAVE DISCUSSIONS! J-reps or...

The higher you go the more shoulder involvement you get! Above 30 will stop being strictly a chest press and becomes more of a shouledr press! IMO I take about 15 and yep it makes a big difference as the shoulder pain disappears!

Can I respectfully disagree? There are some awsome machines out there, and if one applies HST principles, one should grow pretty well. Yes I also agree that free weights are more natural, however the machine route can be just as satisfying, I think getting too technical will not get us...
