[quote=Juggernauttx]Another thing I have found effective in HST is to alternate exercises. I see Bryan frequently recommends this as well. So instead of doing one exercise for example in a 2 week block, you can do 2 different exercises and alternate them. <snip>[quote]
I'm not sure if I understand this.
If your doing 6 of the same excersize let's say the percentages break down something like this: 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 100%
If your doing 3 excersize for two different excersizes, the percentages would break down something like: 90%, 90%, 95%, 95%, 100%, 100%
Now wouldn't you be more likely to train to failure using the second method? Your working more frequently with near maximal weights.
