What is a H.I.S.T workout?
It's an advanced form of strength training. Unlike H.I.I.T. which is interval training, H.I.S.T. (High Intensity Strength Training) is putting all your effort into one set to complete failure. Once you've completed the set, if you feel that you're ready for a second set, then you couldn't have possibly gone all-out during the first set.
The workout is 50% - 75% warm up followed by 2-5 minutes to perform one set. It's similar to a sprinter vs. a marathon runner, you perform a short explosive workout with the maximum weight you can safely push or pull.
For the past 20 years I've been utilizing numerous variations of HIT workouts. The programs I have developed are not suitable for everyone, but most individuals can progress up to them depending on the clients objectives and physical abilities.
