you will be very pleased with the results. One thing, be SURE SURE SURE that you start with light poundage. Slowly build up. The first few days of 15s, 10s and 5's should be weights you can handle with ease. However slow down your tempo as to not make them too easy. Goodluck

how important is this decondition? taking the 12 days off?

very important, otherwise it won't work!

I've done two condensed 3 week HST cycles already - to start off each of my 9 week training cycles, and I've had PRs and mass gains each time

looks interesting, but looking at real results from people on the forum, gains werent phonomenal. best i saw was 7 lbs gain in 15 weeks i think. i dont know. they have interesting theories though, such as protein intake can be as much as 60g per meal. they also stated that anything after 1 set per bodypart was basically useless and just burned more calories.
