Well thats the sample HST routine from the HST webpage.

I would use these (maybe change the sets/reps slightly)
Squat - 1x10
Stiff Leg Deads - 2x10
Calf Raise - 2x10
Incline Bench - 2x10
Dips - 1x10
Chins - 2x10 (W.N.)
Rows - 2x10 (W.N)

and maybe add one or two of these :
Shrugs - 1x10
Shoulder Press - 1x10
Lateral Raise - 1x10
Rear Delt - 1x10
DB Curls - 2x10
Tricep Ext. - 2x10

To every workout in the end (not all in every workout).

But its a personal choice.

Good luck.

Shahar.

If you want a fatloss type program take a look at meltdown training on t-nation. It will whip your butt. :D

HST is great! You could certainly start with the sample... but just experiement a few days first, then create your own plan.

full body workouts are pretty brutal. Make sure to utilize dextrose in your PWO as that helps a great deal with soreness...atleast that's what I notice with myself.

Thanks guys.

I started this program on Monday, it is still to early to tell if it is working, but I didn’t think I would be stiff from those exercises but I am a bit.

The low carb days are a new thing to get used to but since it is just two days a week it is not hard to follow.

I did not include dextrose in my post workout meal since im on a cutting phase. My post workout meal is whey protein and raw rolled oats Shake.
