Hi all.
I apologise if this has been covered to death previously somewhere.
I have never lifted weights but want to do a strength training program.
I read through the SL guide and was all set to start with this program, then I read all the haters posts across a range of sites - apparently SS is a better way to go for a noob.
Suggestions for the best option for someone who has no experience at all prior to starting the program? I am overweight looking to build more lean muscle and reduce fat. I have natural strength, but no clue and don't want to do a back injury due to poor form.
Why I like SL? Starts with an empty bar - forcing you to work on form.
I can not do one single chin or pull up at present (part of the SS program).
Cheers in advance if you can push me in the right direction.
