Im not experienced enough to critique your work out plan, but I dont think you really need to do leg presses, deadlifts, and power cleans in teh same cycle. Thats probably overkill. Also, you should probably either choose between flatbench or incline bench and ditch the other.

I get my target reps on my first set no matter what. On my second set I terminate the set once my ryhthmn is broken, I do not cluster. Is that fine?

Firm, you do 2 sets for both compounds and isolations during the 10's, and 3 sets for both durin ghte 5's? Thanks

What exactly is clustering? Can you give me an example?

I started my first cycle and I am doing two sets for every exercise. Why? Because it was the basic program Bryan laid out on the front page lol. I am just testing this and then Ill see if I want to adjust it or not. For my next cycle I am considering just 1 set for 15's, 2 sets for compounds/1...

what was your HST routine?

oops, missed that. ;)

Thanks, I dont want to work out in consecutive days consistently. Its just that i work out 3 days a week on M-W-F and since I have off this Monday for the 4th of July I would just like to sleep a little late and relax. SO just for next week I want to work out Tuesday-Wedesday-Friday. That...

Tot, you're saying you can work out two days in a row if your body doesnt feel tired? Also, up above you said you should teriminate teh 2nd set during 15's if you are approaching failure. I do that on my 2nd set during all the rep schemes. Is that ok? Thanks

I started my 10 rep scheme yesterday. 10 exercises, 2 sets each and I was done in 40 minutes. I was shocked. I didnt rest long inbetween sets because i was not out of breath as much as I was during the 15's. The 15's made me feel a little nauseau so I had to slow down and rest more, hence my...

Is it true you need to do low intensity cardio (like walking on an incline) for a minimum of 35-45 minutes to get results? I only do it for abbut 25 minutes, am I wasting my time?

If you still feel tired and out of breath after 30 seconds you still do your next set? Isnt that bad for you?

Here is my workout, I do 2 sets for each exercise on every rep scheme. I ran my workout by the experts and they found nothing wrong with it. Here are the exercises in this particular order. Squat Leg curls Standing Calf raises Flat bench Bent-over rows Lat pulldowns Dummbell presses Shrugs Bar...

People do various forms of HST. I do 2 sets on every exercise for every rep. scheme. But I've read people who say they do 1 set for 15, 2 for 10 and 3 sets for the 5 rep. scheme. I just started my first HST cycle so I cant report any results, but I like the way I have been feeling thus far. As...

I do 10 exercises, 2 sets each exercise and im done withing an hour and 15 minutes.

Would you mind posting your routine?

Yes, but a smaller muscle is still getting the same attention as the bigger muscle, even if the sets are being reshuffled. No?

This is one thing I dont understand about the HST workout. How is doing just 1 exercise and 2 sets for a small muscle like your biceps sufficient, and doing maybe 1 or 2 exercises and 2 sets for a big muscle, like your back, also sufficient? Doesn't a bigger muscle need more training? I have...

I felt my first workout on the 15 rep cycle. I just used 5 pound increments and I was very pleased. Maybe your max is inaccurate or your increments are too big?

Hey all, I was putting together my HST chart using 10 pound increments. The weight looked too light for the early workouts and i knew it would be a breeze, so instead I switched it to 5 pound increments on every exercise. Yesterday was my first day and I was pleased with the workout. I got a...
