Hi Everyone,
I am getting back into the gym.
1. I have done Mark Rippetoe's Starting Strength. It seems to actually work quite well.
2. Last week, I tried to cut back on calories, etc. because I am so fat and out of shape. But, as Rippetoe said, I did not keep gaining the spectacular strength gains that usually people see, even from session to session.
3. I guess I will need to go back to doing the workouts, and eating 3000 - 4000 calories per day. But, if I am already fat, I worry about what will happen.
4. Even though I will never be something like a powerlifter, with their 400 lb bench presses and 600 lb squats, I wonder what they do after they have reached their goals?
Can they ever slim down again?
Can they ever turn into bodybuilders, with chiseled physiques?
