I've found your recommendations and input enlightening. I'm thinking that SJ exercises seem hardest on older joints (especially the dreaded...
Interesting, you're right it is a very unnatural movement. I think I'll drop laterals. They seem to stress my left elbow tendon. The evolutionary...
One thing I like about HST's 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 100% cycle is the contrast between the great pumps I get doing smooth strict reps and the...
I didn't find the abstract very clear but you won't get much argument from me here. I definitely favour MJ exercises. I have two Single Joint...
What sets and frequency are you using on your HIT protocols.
People do HST differently, it's a set of principles. But after the strategic deconditioning ("softening up" layoff) I increase my sets, 2 x 15 in...
The gym was quite busy tonight and we were annoying people with sitting on various machines and benches for what looked like 5 sets each without...
Tsatsouline and Dan Johns like 3 clusters (2-3-5-10-2-3-5-10-2-3-5-10) for drug-free athletes seeking hypertrophy. It's certainly similar training...
I suppose we could say we're doing two intensified sets: the 3-4-5-6-7 ladder twice with the long 150 sec between. The system is old. Old-time...
Hi there. Yeah, I think all sets over 50%RM count to a degree. My own way of dealing with age, I'm 55, and "natural", is to use Bryan Haycock's...
It's many years since I attempted serious bodybuilding using HIT and never got close to earlier levels of hypertrophy. I used thrice weekly full...
Well explained. Yeah, I like 50 reps; I find it my sweet spot for volume. I don't grow using lower HIT rep schemes.
It's to be repeated once so 50 reps. I tried it this morning too. It is basically the same as the 'ladders' that Pavel Tsatsouline has been...
