I would pick up where you left off. If you can keep your progression going then it would be beneficial to stick with this cycle. The 4-6 gave me the most gains so I wouldn't want to reset the program and have to go for over a month til I hit the 4-6 again. To me, resetting and going through the other cycles again to hit the 4-6 is counterproductive.

BTW, while you're out of the gym...EAT!!!! You've gone through most of HST and you should get some growth during this off time.

I agree with Kane that you should just pick back up where you left off and to eat just about everything in sight while you have the chance to grow.

Yeah that was what I was leaning more towards. I really didn't want to stop and start all over again. But I figured I'd get a second opinion from the experts. And I have no problem with the eating part. Since the ending of the 8-10's and now I have gained 9lbs already. I have seen all my growth during this time. I haven't done any measurments yet, I'm gonna save that for the end of the program, so I'm not sure exactlly where my gains are. Depending on how the last week goes I might extend the 4-6's for another 2 weeks. As long as I'm seeing some gains I don't want to try to stop a rolling freight train. Thanks for the advice guys.

Well I'm finally back. Two weeks quickly changed to about a month. This ankle injury really fucked up my routine. Since it was my first day back I decided to do all the same weight that I did the last day I was in the gym. Surprisingly all the lifts were pretty easy. I thought that my strength would have gone down in a months time. But I was able to hit all my weights no problem. The only problem I had was with my squats. I was able to do A2G squats with the warm up weight but once I started adding weight I started to feel a little pain & discomfort. But atleast I was able to get some squats in. So here's the numbers for yesterday not going to be any different form last time but here they are none the less.

Squat [2] 225
SL Curls [1] 80
Flat Bench [2] 255
Decline DB [1] 90
S Shoulder Press [1] 165
Shrugs [1] 290
Barbell Curl [1] 90
Cable Pressdowns [1] 120
Dips [1] Bw+30
WG Pulldowns [2] 200
CG Rows [1] 190
Calves [2] 280

^^lol

Mac...don't push it if your ankle is aggrevating you. Getting some squats in will be the least of your worries if the injury happens again. Just go in there and lift what you can lift, when you can lift it.

If you find that you can't squat effectively, then replace squats with quad extensions and hamstring curls (provided those don't aggrevate anything). Members on the site probably already have there crosshairs on my head for saying that but HST is about size and you can use that substitution to keep the size and gain a bit on your legs.
