Opinions of HST?
« on: May 14, 2009, 01:40:49 PM »
I'd have to say it is one of my favourite training styles and have had good experiences with it.

What are your takes?
I hate the State.

Yeah, I am finding that the strength losses I experienced with this shitty split I had been doing are going away and my old strength levels are coming back. I think I am done with traditional splits. Waste of time.

It's not that different from powerlifting protocols. In my earlier years I did some PL plans since my first training partner was a PL.

Do not question us, and stop making threads about it every 5 seconds  >:(

Have you started to do the paint thinner thing as well?

Its the simplest form of periodization. Probably not as good for hypetrophy for advanced trainees since advanced trainees typically respond better to high volume.

I was just interested. If you go by HIT theories, the more advanced you get, the less volume you need.

too general a question. too many factors to consider including individual physiological response to training stimulus. IMO, the best training is something you enjoy and can make progress on. Many routines work, so pick the one you like.
