New Workout Changes: Back To The Basics

So as part of my new workout plans, I will now be focusing solely on the big compound lifts in an attempt to build good posterior and core strength.

For at least the next 6 to 9 months, my workouts will now only include:

• Bench Press
• Power Clean
• Deadlift
• Squats
• Press
• Chin-ups/Pull-ups (weighted)

I’m also switching from only working certain areas of the body during one day, to full-body workouts. Why did I do this? Reading Starting Strength really drilled this idea into me, but the body was created to work as a complete system, and is thus best trained as a system (through heavy compound lifts like the ones above).

I’m hoping to put 10 to 15 pounds on mass on during this initial change in working out. I’ll detail a more specific goals post later.
