    Long term bodybuilder- HST newbie

    I've been doing HST workouts for 2 yrs now. I don't know the science behind it but my experience is that it works. Like you, I used to hit a body part twice a week and got great pumps. But after a couple days they are gone until the next time. With HST and my full body workouts, twice a day, 3...

    day after the 15's and other questions

    I would stick to your plan and at the end, see if it worked for you. When I first started doing HST (couple of yrs ago) I was losing some size during my 5's. At the time, I was doing 2 sets of 5's. Starting with my next cycle, I went to 3 sets of 5's and my growth continued throughout the entire...

    Interesting visit with a doctor

    My regular doctor recently took a position out of town so I needed to find a new doctor. My wife has always been happy with her doctor so I thought I would give him a try for my yearly physical. I'm a 51 yr old that has been weight training for about 15 yrs. I take creatine off and on and didn't...

    how many sets with 5's?

    I gotta agree with the majority here. I've done HST cycles for about 1 1/2 yrs now. For quite a while I swore that I was losing size during my 5's. I always did 2 sets for every rep range, 15's, 10's and 5's. Well the last couple of cycles I started doing 3 sets when I got to 5's. My growth now...

    Where'd you get your username?

    My name is Firm (short for Firman). When my oldest son was in high school his friends started called me Firminator - like in The Terminator. The name just kinda stuck - even now, years later, they still call me that when they see me. Sounds a little funny for a 50yr old but I guess Arnold is...

    Older lifters and Roids

    You should be concerned about the possible long term effects of using roids. Who knows what could happen to you in 30 yrs or so?? ;) Now that I'm 50, I feel that I can participate age humor. Firm

    First time HST, need help with diet

    2--> Then there are others like me that are watching quietly. I think, for many of us, that the nutrition part of working out is the most difficult. I have no problem in the gym, I understand the physical part of this thing very well. But I have struggled for years on the diet part. I...
