Erik's SS Adventure
Since I'm a novice with only 2 years of active lifting under my belt and have been off a year I am taking Gants advice and starting fresh before I introduce CF into the mix. I am hoping to gain decent muscle while shedding pounds and decreasing my bodyfat.
I will be working 3x a week with short cardio (10-15mins) on off days to speed up recovery.
Weeks 4,7,10 I will start introducing metcons to the mix to get ready for BJJ in January.
So here we go I will be starting light as prescribed in Starting strength as to not stall on my progression.
12 week Program
Goals:
1 unassisted pullup
Squat 250
Bench 150
Deadlift 300
These numbers are low and will be adjusted as my progression occurs and I reach my PR's but we all start somewhere!
