Ok, I thinking about starting an HST routine. I have been doing max-ot for about a year and have really enjoyed it. I made solid consistant gains in size and strength. Here is the issue, my joints hurt. I enjoy being in the gym as many days during the week as possible. Here is what I am wanting to know about. How much volume can i pack into a week. Here are two lists of workouts that I plucked from the max ot routines I have done. They are interchangable with other excercises but this is the list I would start with if i could in the order i would like to do them in.
M W F
DB Incline
dips
DB shoulder press
Side lateral raises
Rear lateral raises
Barbell Shrugs
Squats
Stiff legged Dls
Skull cruchers
V-Bar tri pull down
T TH S Sunday off
Pull ups
Bent over rows
Leg Raises
Cable crunches
Weighted crunches
Standing calves
Seated calves
Close grip curls
Wide curls
If I could make this work in 2 week blocks, I would start HST tomorrow... There would be almost the same amount of rest between body parts but you would only trulely get one day off. This is a noob look at my routine thread but I havent seen a list that I liked and havent found much if anything saying how much volume is allowed and whether a split like this would work. Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks
