What I am doing now
I had in mind to do HST type program and after 2 weeks of random stuff I finally put together something. It looks less and less HST like and only thing I guess which I kept is : 3 times a week full body workout, 15,10,8,5 reps mesocycles (each 2 week). I do not have exact same exercises every day and I have 2 heavy days (monday/friday) with Wednesday being "light" day (full body workout nevertheless though).
I just finished first 4 weeks ( 2×15 cycle and 3×10 cycle) .So far it was pretty good . In fact last 3×10 went so good that I decided to do one more week of it .
My best 3×10 so far: sq 210×3x10 , bench 165×3x10 , Sumo DL 245×2x10.
Here is how my current layout looks like:

Imho it is pretty hardcore and I start feeling it . will probably drop bench on Wednesday and replace it with either decline, either board presses - my shoulders and tric take a beating. Squatting 3 times a week is not so bad ,albeit that front squat feels like a burden .
