So Hello My Iron friends I have been getting back into training again for some time now with some of my weights moving back into the house so I am getting back in shape again I have dropped the mass again to get into shape quicker and get a bit ripped so I have adopted a new structure which I will follow 3 days of HST and a three day split amounting to a 6 day training week with fairly quick but focused workouts for starters I will do Strip sets with an X- rep undertone and as usual the HST.
So what is the strip sets what you do is warm up your muscle then put your maximum training weight on train until failure do your half rep contractions for the X-rep factor and strip down to 5kg’s less and do till failure again plus X-reps and strip down 5kg’s until you are training on the bar itself that is one set
For Example Biceps I train with 50Kg’s on the bar
Warm up 30 reps with 10 Kg’s
First Assault 50Kg’s x 8 reps & 3 X reps (at this weight I max out at about 8 reps)
Strip down to 45Kg x 8 reps or failure (You will see that you will start failure quite easily now) 4 x X-reps
Strip down to 40Kg’s x Failure + 4 x X-reps
Strip down to 35Kg’s x Failure + 4 x X-reps
Strip down to 30 down to 25 down to 20 down to 15 (Generally stop after 8 descents but you can go all the way)
This will get you out of a plateau or into shape relatively quickly whilst working long and short muscle fiber doing endurance as well as power training combined it is a bit time consuming but once you’ve got the stripping under the belt its easy strip the weight as quick as possible to have the best cardio related result the HST I’ve discussed in dept for a while so just check in the history I will post some links to the info on the side later what I plan to do is the following
First Day I will train
Chest, Back and abs focusing mostly for now on Bench Strip sets, Lat Fly’s strip sets and crunches and off course Dead lifts ( I hate but love) and that’s day 1
Second Day is HST full body workout maximum weight one set per body part 8 – 12 reps
Third day I will train Biceps, Triceps forearms and shoulders here I focus on only bicep curls (Insane level ) tri presses overhead pull ups till failure and chins till failure
Fourth Day is HST full body workout medium weight one set per body part 15 – 20 reps
Fifth day is legs Due to my lack in leg power I pump it up a bit and do Squats lunges ( I don’t have leg machines or a nice squat rack) and then three sets on calves + the strip set
Sixth Day yes it is the 1 rep max master see what I can do HST Like
Off course I will give you my take on everything as I go along so check in again and again to see where I am taking this and my body and if you have a story or tips or just want some media exposure mail me and Ill post what you say or need to say no problem keep it real and keep training
