Newbie Question - What kind of program to start? - Bodybuilding Discussion on Bodybuilding.net Training Forum

ScrawnyGuy · 03-22-2007, 01:59 PM

I was using the search feature on this forum and I came across a Novice Traing Guide. I didn't want to bump it in case there was good reason for it to get buried. Heres the link.

Its a long read, but I was wondering what are some of your opinions on it?

Rippetoe's Starting Strength is an excellent novice program that will get you some good results. I say go for it.

FlyUSMC · 03-23-2007, 06:54 AM

Rippetoe's is working for me.. Go for it

Eric3237 · 03-23-2007, 08:43 AM

^^^Agreed.

I almost responded but i wanted to wait for someone else so I wouldn't be called a Rippetoe pimp again!

widdoes2504 · 03-23-2007, 09:18 AM

Why be called a pimp? The program works!!!!

Eric3237 · 03-23-2007, 05:15 PM

Well see your supposed to sound smart by coming up with complex custom routines for everyone

.

Notice I said sound smart.

widdoes2504 · 03-26-2007, 02:38 AM

If we made complex custom routines for everyone do you think we could go to work for Flex or Musclemag?? Damn, I couldn't even say that with a straight face...

Eric3237 · 03-26-2007, 05:39 AM

They require a degree in bullshitology.
