Constantly switching your routine could be a major problem. Muscle growth comes with time and consistency. I'm not sure what your time frame is for a certain program, but your timeframe should depend on your progression. Your timeframe for a routine doesn't depend on time at all. If you're progressing in your lifts, then guess what, you've created muscle growth. Once you stall after X amounts of months THEN you think about ways to continue progression. A flip-flop approach to training with the idea of shocking your muscles isn't a good way of doing things IMO. Even with HST it relies on reps starting off high and slowly tapering down over a period of months, not doing a 15RM period then an 8-10 then back to a 15 and then down to a 6-8. IMO you're training should alwasy tailor to increasing the loading, which means going from higher reps to lower reps when using 'blocks' of differing set/rep ranges, not simply just having 'blocks' of different schemes.

I'll be back on later to read your reply, those are just my initial thoughts on what you posted.
