Full body HST is the way to go for cutting IMO. I'm trimming down right now using HST..Mainly cause it wouldn't make sense to bulk without lifting chest! Anyways, if you are looking for a serious cut, and I mean serious, then go with what Hrdgain's doing in his journal..THe HST 15,12,10,8 rm's. It's basically a circuit course which kicks ass for fat loss.
I'm doing the traditional (12-15), (8-10), and (4-6) RM's. I've cut out virtually all carbs (besides pre/post and mornings low GI) and it's been amazing. Only lean meats for me for the past 3.5 weeks, and very surprisingly I'm up 4 lbs!! I've also been doing cardio twice a week, low intensity high duration mixed in every other week with HIIT.
I'm surprised that my bodyfat is melting off while putting (back) on my mass. I'll email you what I'm doing for HST. It's basically 2 seperate workouts so the weight can stay heavy..Mon-A, Wed-B, Fri-A...Mon-B, ect..
BTW, a lot of people get worried with HST because of the use of light weights, far away from your 90-100% RM. By me incorperating 2 seperate workouts like A2G squat on workout A, deadlifts on B, I can keep the weight heavy. So instead of progressing each exercise through 6 workouts, I only have to progress through 3 each..
