HST Training - Bodybuilding Discussion on Bodybuilding.net Training Forum

Darkhorse · 04-11-2005, 03:51 AM

Anyone try HST Training? I'm thinking about doing that for my next training evolution. It is a good style to rest my joints from pounding them with Max-OT weight. Everyone who posted on other forums was hovering around the 140 weight class, so I can't really trust what they say. Any experience w/ this?

Since noone's tried it, I guess I'm the guinea pig. I heard a crunch in my neck doing 65 lb side laterals today and it didn't feel very good. :eek: For my body lifting as heavy as I do, I think I can only handle a hard 4 week cycle of Max-OT. My forearms are painful and my neck doesn't feel any better. I went to the HST website and calculated my 15, 10, 5 rep maxes. This program is at the opposite end of the spectrum from what I'm accustomed to. I'll do a modified 5 week cycle of HST so my body and cns heals from the poundage I've been slinging. Does anyone want me to do a journal for this or does noone care about HST? I've checked around and really noone has done a journal with this. 95% of the people who commented on this either are beginners, have shitty 2,000 calorie bulking diets (hard to believe I know), or don't train each muscle equally.

I was planning on HST for my next S1+ cycle 0311. So it would help me out if you kept a journal. I read the article on it published in the bull and it peaked my interest. As i stated before though, i'm not really sure how HST is suppose to work, but if it works for you, i'm willing to give it a try.

and just to let ya know, my cutting diet is more then 2000 cals, so you know my bulking is gonna be hahahhaha.

Who are the worst offenders? Bodybuilders and powerlifters are by far the worst!. They feel that all they have to do is train the main lifts to get strong. This is why so many of them are out of shape." - Dave Tate
