I've posted a lot of questions lately, and got some great replys, so I hope y'all don't mind that I post another: Some places in this forum I've heard guys saying, that if you used to do ex 30 sets of chest excercises pr. week, you should do the same when starting out HST - just divided into...

Okay, see what you mean. It's not possible to do both of them 100%, but that's pretty much the same as when you do two exercises for other groups - after doing bench press, then your db incline press isn't a 100% too... I think I'll complete this routine with both squat and dead, and then try...

I don't know... Even though I'm not a huge motherfucker, I almost never feel exhausted when doing only 2 sets of each exercise. So I could perform the exercises, but my question is more like: would it be beneficial, or would I simply overload the CNS by doing inc. press/db bench/dips instead of...

You're right that working the obliques give the stomach a wider look - on the other hand it also gives you more of the characteristic "athlete look", with well defined hips (i.e. oblques)... You don't think I should do both squat and deadlifts on the same day? Do you have some...

I've read what bryan says about this, but I haven't read the experiments that he builds his statements on. But I don't think that anyone can answer your question precisely: swimming, fast-running and the like are excercises that exhausts you, and even though it works (mainly) the type 1 fibres...

My current workout is as follows (if anybody feels like givig critique, go ahead ): Squat Dead-lift Chins / pulldowns One-arm row/bent-over row Incline barbell bench Db bench Db Shoulder press Upright row Biceps curl Tri pushdown Weighted crunch Weighted oblique sidebent Weighted...

Let me get it completely straight just to be sure: the HST principles should be interpreted this way: if your 15/10/5 RM are 100/150/200 kg (I wish) and the increment about 5 pounds, then for the first two weeks, you should be doing 75, 80, 85, 90, 95 and finally, again(???), 100 - and all the...

With poundage, do you then mean the amount of pounds lifted in total (ex 3 sets of 10 reps of 10 pounds = 3x10x10=300 pounds) or is it simply the weight that you lift??? Right now my approach is, that I raise the weight by some certain amount each or every other workout, and then I do as many...

In your program it says "repetition scheme" - does that mean that you only do that number of reps, or do you do as many as you can (staying away from failure???) - sorry my english isn't sufficient I see you are alternating between two different exercises for some muscles - why is...

Beeing a dane, I've read lots af both danish and american articles about the principles of HST. To me there seems to be two points were the articles differ: first of all - during fx the 10 rep period (or the other periods), some say that you should do as many reps as possible (staying away from...
