h.i.t session 2
Tomorrow will be the second session of HIT. For further sessions I will report improvements so to better comment on this system of training. Anyway I have only about 2 months before I stop so I have to make full use of it! I should increase my gym frequency to 3 times a week (i have to do it now or else theres no more), unless there's dance training and stuff. And will hit my 60kg weight before cutting.
So far H.I.T had been cool, like, it increased my circumference and stuff. Amazing taking to account it's only one session. But tapes aren't all, the iron never lies, the iron is the real deal.
With this rate, i can clock a maximum of 24 gym sessions (which will probably end up with only 18) from now till cutting time. I can't give a solid verdict on it yet since it's my 2nd session tmr only. For those who aren't clear, HIT is high intensity training, characterized by:
1. Short workout times (For me is maximum 1 hour including warm ups of 15 mins)
2. Minimal number of sets done to maximum intensity.
3. Each set done till concentric or honest muscle failure, with a few forced reps, minimal help from assistant.
4. Short rests between sets. (For me, it's 1 minute between sets max.)
5. 3 stages of muscular contraction: Positive, Static, Negative are emphasized throughout the movement. Eg. Lifting a dumbell up with 2 counts, squeezing it at the top of the motion for 3 counts, and lowering the dumbell with 6 counts.
6. Feeling like shit after the entire workout.
