    best lat exercise

    You just lie on a decline bench at 45 degrees(135?), grasping a E Z bar about shoulder width apart with a slight bend in the elbows, and then lift it up until your arms are above parallel with the floor, not an exact description but when you do it you'll feel for yourself when the tension is in...

Was wondering what the skinny was on them compared to close grip pulldowns/pullups (better stretch), wider grip pulldowns( bringing the elbows down to...

    First time HST'er with some Questions.

    With the programme your doing, you dont' need to do multiple sets. You should perform the minimum effective volume, for most people not on roids one set is sufficient. As long as you increase the weight every workout you don't have to increase the volum neccessarily. However, on the 5's many...

    leg training

    you read incorrectly, im talking about sprint training not split. Because I want my weight training is for sport I was wondering how to implement sprint training for larger, more powerful legs. Im glad your leg training is effective, I use much the same programme, without stiff legged deadlifts.

    eccentric reps+metabolic load?

    Sorry for the confusion, My question arises because I was reading other posts and many people say they do eccentric work with no concentric portion at all e.g jumping up to the chin up bar, lowering yourself for 3 seconds, getting off, jumping back up and repeating. Then they do a set of 15's...

    eccentric reps+metabolic load?

    How do you get the best out of eccentric reps? Is it by performing a set of 15's afterwards or would it be better to use a spotter's help on the concentric portion and do negative reps with concentric help?

    Training query

    I was reading http://www.dolfzine.com/page462.htm about how muscle tension is a lot greater in your strongest range e.g when your arms are almost straight for chinups. Has anyone combined HST principles with partial reps and really heavy weights? I know its a bit Pete Sisco but since HST is all...

    1 set per body part

    One set works for some bodyparts but it is difficult to work more physiologically complex bodyparts using only one exercise. Suggested short routine squats dips bent over barbell rows deadlifts shoulder press close grip pull down bicep curl tricep pulldown rear lateral raises calf raise ( it...

    HST in practice for bodybuilders

    Every time I look at this website, I am amazed by the picture of Boris Kleine, he is massive I just wonder if he's been taking too many roids and damaged his liver cause he looks a bit yellow......... Anyhoo, It says he trains 'according to HST principles', How different is his workout from the...

    I was wondering if there is any proven benefit to warm-ups, does it really help you lift more weight? And how does it affect your injury chances? I'v lifted for a couple of years and never consistently warmed up, I do when squatting or deadlifting but never feel it helps my performance at all...
