Yes, the degree of soreness does make a difference on
training. I agree, if one can barely walk, than
training would probably be out of the question!
Also, the bench/row relationship that you mentioned is
another example of what we are talking about. This is
why most (not all) of the elite Powerlifters train
bench and back in the same plane of movement
(horizontal). In addition to that, many train both
bench and rows in the same day, to furthor the
crossover benefit at the neural level. I'm not sure
how necessary that is, but I train this way myself,
and think it helps.
One more example of the shoulder area that we were
talking about before. Every Olypmic Lifter has to hold
huge amounts of weight over their head at the
completion of the snatch and the C&J. In fact, the
last motion of the C&J is practically a push press!
However, even with all this heavy, heavy shoulder
work, Olympic Lifters have shoulder area problems a
lot less frequently than Powerlifters. This is because
cleans, snatches, and the other variations of Olympic
Lifts have external rotation built into them. Thus, no
strength imbalance ever develops!

DOMS = Delayed Onset of Muscle Soreness
And we have all been there. I remember two to tree years back where I
followed the old dichotonomy of you must feel sore, I managed to get
and keep each muscle group sore for 3 days and I developed a split
where the only thing I lost out on was rear delts...
I have to confess I haven't tried HST yet, but I am going to shortly
so I can't compare, but there is one thing that I know... being sore
24/7 takes it's toll mentally - you needed to be soooo disciplined to
keep that going...
Can't help you any more than that...

this is why i asked this question..i knew i could get a wealth of
information to benefit myself as well as others. I, like Perry, have
yet to try the HST methods, and I would like to try them at some
point. Research will tell me if it is what i want to do.
Hogg you mentioned that soreness in the pecs, bi's and hams was a
good indicator that more rest should be taken for those areas. Why
is that? Succeptibility to tearing?

pecs, bis, and hams are typically where ruptures occur in
athletes. Its pretty hard to tear a lat or a soleus but its not
too hard to roll your bicep up like a window shade, rip a pec off,
or pop a muscle in the ham complex.
