    Hello everyone.

    I've been reading the STS since yesterday because I was looking for a different trainingsprogram, ive been training for 6 years now, and since the last 3 years it has been mostely heavy straights set trainings, with sometime's dropsets etc.

    I'm now going to stick to STS because i'm now at 215lbs with 12% and not really gaining. Using AAS doesnt add much wheight but water, changing the dieet ads fat...but training, well I change excersizes, but dont really do anything with the volume or freq. Just add some drop sets ect.

    I want to start next week, with the schedule, wich I will be making tomorrow. Only I never had a real resting week, so I dont know if I have to start STS with a 2wks prime, or just start blasting 12 wks and then prime 2wks.
    I dont feel overtrained right now, no problem with sleeping of meals, and strength is trough the roof.
    Also im in a anabolic cycle, that will continue till the end of this year.
    I did had some rest days, like 3/4 days of doing noting at all. And ive been bulking since march.
    I dont feel the need for a prime, but what do you think?


    Another question is about the twice a wk training. Im wanting to do something like this in my blast, to see what happens if I use this form of training, what do you think?

    wk1 Reload (once a wk training)
    wk2 Reload (once a wk training)
    wk3 Reload (once a wk training)
    wk4 Deload (once a wk training)
    wk5 Reload (once a wk training)
    wk6 Reload (once a wk training)
    wk7 Reload (once a wk training)
    wk8 Deload (once a wk training)
    wk9 Reload (twice a wk training)
    wk10 Reload (twice a wk training)
    wk11 Reload (twice a wk training)
    wk12 Reload (twice a wk training)
    wk13 Prime (once a wk training)
    wk14 Prime (once a wk training)

    Is this ok, or should wk12 be a deload with twice a wk training.

    I wish everyone succes with STS training, and I'll be hitting the gym for some extreme gains!

This can be after 8 weeks of heavy training or 2 years of stright heavy training as you need to blast for as long as possible before priming!)i dont feel overtrained right nw, no problem with sleeping of meals, and strength is trough the roof. (go straight into a blast!)also im in a anabolic cycle, that will continue till the end of this year.

    Wk1 reload (once a wk training)

    wk13 prime (once a wk training)
    wk14 prime (once a wk training)

    is this ok, or should wk12 be a deload with twice a wk training. you must deload and reload as you see fit during a blast as everyone responds differently. The secret is not training past 4 weeks during a reload or two week during a deload. Also stay with the same muscle training frequency (once a week muscle training or twice a week muscle training) for at least 8 weeks before changing to the other. You want full-adaptation to occur before changing to the other one!!!i wish everyone succes with sts training, and i'll be hitting the gym for some extreme gains!
