Just finished my SD after first hst cycle in years. Starting bAck in gym tomorow. Wanted to ask : for first cycle i basically did the vanilla hst 3x per week 2x15,2x10, then did 4 weeks at 3x5. My exercises were squat Bench Bent over row Shrug Barbell curl Close grip bench Overhead press...

Thanks guys!

Is one set of deadlifts sufficient enough during the 15 and 10 rep weeks? Im trying to hit deadlifts 2x per week. Towards end of 15s and 10s (approacing maxes) i found it very difficult and scared of injury to attempt a second set.

Question. I guess im beyond the intermediate stage since ive been lifting for years. Even tho ive lost lots of strength these past few years thro improper dieting,training etc. would the standard 3 day a week full body still be fine to do? Something like: Squat Bench Row Oh press Close grip...

Question on this setup- so would this be three weeks on each rep scheme? Since u want 6 workouts(usually 2 weeks in the tradional hat format) for each exercise right?
