Hey guys,
Basics. I'm a 36 year old male. Height 6.5ft,weight 225 (approx).
I was recommended to this site by a friend at the gym. I'm not an avid lifter, or at least have never been in the past. I've always had a good metabolism, and am pretty active generally. My natural build has always been pretty good as well, but definitely not "bodybuilder" material. Now as I'm getting older, I find myself needing to work harder just to maintain. More importantly, I know there is a lot of wasted effort on my part, and I'm anxious to start working smarter.
What really prompted me was a friend telling me about HST. If anyone is familiar with it,good or bad, I would appreciate any help in learning more. If there is a better way, I'd be anxious to hear about that as well. My goals are not that different than most non professionals. Any added muscle would be great, as well as a more sensical and efficient workout routine. I especially want to work on my abs, which have never been that great (no six pack) but have been tight. Also, I have very long arms, and I feel as though they hamper me with bench exercises. Any advice in that direction would be helpful.
