So if you don't care about the beach body I would do an upper/lower for about 2 months and start power lifting. or If you do care about the beach I would hold off on the power lifting till after the beach months. I'm debating the same thing so I feel you on this.
Thanks brother. Yeah, I'm going to continue along with this journal for the upper/lower..And I'll change the name so I won't mislead anyone.

After consideration, I want to cut through the summer. So after about 4-6 weeks of this upper/lower split, I'm going to focus 100% on cutting down. By then I'm leaning towards a circuit training course thrice a week with HIIT in between. I should anyways because A) I live 10 minutes from the beach down here in Southern CA, and B) I have physical fitness tests done with my company during the summer.

Maybe this coming winter I'll switch to powerlifting. Either way, I got motivated to cut after watching the the UFC behind the scenes show with Rich Franklin last night. He does a one hour continuous machine circuit training course without taking a break. Reps I believe between 6-15, with a few being 100..And this is after doing a 45 minute run on his treadmill as soon as he woke up. He measured his BF % at the gym at 5.9%. A real animal!

Edit: I ironed out my cutting plan..It's a fucking killer plan too. The quickie details are that it's carb cycling combined with three days a week of HST, and HIIT every other day. The HST plan is a lot different from the "bb'er" one. It's 15/12/10/8 RM's (2 week meso's) and treated more as a circuit course (ie. < 60 seconds rest between sets). You guys are gonna love it.. I'll post the whole detailed beast when it's closer to 'D' day..
