I'm not saying it doesn't work, but I really don't think there is any evidence to suggest that fascia is a limiting factor in muscle growth. There is, however, some research (in animals) to suggest that stretching may induce a greater degree of muscle hyperplasia, in addition to hypertrophy. An injury could cause swelling in a muscle much greater than we can achieve in the gym, and the fascia doesn't stop it then. Don't get me wrong, I like FST-7 and think stretching is great for bodybuilders, but I think the name and principles that are behind it are a little off.

Did my first round of of FST-7 today. I am still in recovery mode from an injury and probably shouldnt have been doing it but I tried it anyway, just not as heavy as I could. I liked it, look forward to seeing how it goes

As I've stated earlier, I've been doing Yates style HIT with 7s at the end. I'm still going at it, doing keto, and the results are still amazing. I did not get nearly as good of a response when I was doing the significantly more volumized routine plus 7s, though. Hit + 7s seems to have a nice mix of volume and intensity.
I'll keep doing this until I stall. I think this would be fucking awesome in the off season, we'll see. I'd love to give DC a try too, but not until/if this stalls.

I've been doing FST-7 for 4 months now and have been getting incredible results. As long as you keep progressing your weights your body keeps going! I've been training hardcore for seven years now and even after that many months I'm still sorer than all get out after every workout!

Cycling the rep range on fst-7 is basically the same thing if you do fst-7 your not always doing the same rep scheme:
Offseason or mass building should look like this:
Heavy compound movement (after warm up set): 4X6-8
Heavy compound movement : 4X 6-8
Moderately heavy refinement movement: 3X 8-10
7's: 7X10-12

How come that old training methods combined used by juiced up athlethes is Tha New Thing...it sounds interesting...but it has been around for long...better watch for overtraining if your natrual...still any different style will shock the muscles...can we call it smart marketing...

Guys, just thought I'd throw this out there..
I want to bring up my legs, so I've been hitting them super hard twice a week (Monday and Thursday) and within 4 sessions I have added 1.5 inches on my legs.. NO SHIT!
On Monday, I do FST-7 on my hamstrings
On Thursday, I do FST-7 on my quads
Everything else remains the same on both days.. I have also dropped ALL cardio, because these workouts completely rape me and I'm on the brink of over-training!
Routine looks like this:
Mon - Legs
Tue- Back
Wed: Chest + shoulder
Thu: Legs
Fri: Arms
FST-7 really does require carbs to get the best out of it, so I've been sipping on Vitargo+ BCAA, but I was doing this way before doing this leg routine, so I know its not just the extra glycogen!
BTW, I started FST-7 on ONLY arms first, many months ago and added some solid size at a rapid rate (over 1inch!
Hope this helps!
