[quote=Anonymous]I'm seconding starting strength. I'm a guy, but I was lifting for years,and I made more progress on the novice linear progression starting strength program in 6 months than I did in years of previous lifting. You are going to lift heavy, and no reps over 5. After your warm up sets if you can lift the weight more than 5 times there's not enough weight on the bar. Its really simple, no accessory work, just bench, squat,deadlift, and overhead press. Not counting your warm ups its 3 sets of 5 for bench, squat, press, and 1 set of 5 for the deadlift. You only press and bench every other workout. Add 5 lbs to every exercise every workout until you can't, then drop back to 2.5 lbs, then drop back to sets of 3. This should take you out to 6 months, then you'll have to switch over to a more advanced routine. You need to eat more and sleep more, you'll probably gain a little weight, but you'll look thinner.[/quote]
