HST is nothing more than linear periodization. It utilizes duel factor by the use of an 8 day lay-off (stratigic deconditioning). The way I'm doing it is instead of taking that week off and decondition my muscles for the use of lighter weights (HST), I'm dropping the freq. and volume but keeping the weight and intensity high. So in essence, I will still increase strength during my recovery block. I like this way better than to take a week off because I still won't have real serious DOMS when my next phase begins.
