BFL, BFFL, Or Custom? - Thursday, April 16, 2009 9:04 PM ( #1 )
Okay, so I have been eating right, and am now looking for a workout routine.  I just started the eating right thing alone, because I knew if I couldn't stick to that, then I couldn't stick to a workout program.  (Before all that, I quit smoking and drinking alcohol completely, go me!)

So, now I need to know what the best route is.  Should I go with Body-For-Life, or Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle, or should I just do something custom?  I read BFL to get basic information (which is how I got my meal plan) and was considering going ahead and doing the program.  What do you guys think of it?

My goals are to loose body fat, maybe gaining a little more strength, first.  I am sick of having skinny arms and a spare tire, I am just all out of proportion in every way.  After cutting down, I want to then add muscle.

What do you all suggest?  I am completely new to working out with weights, and need some advice on which way to go.

Thanks,
Fox

I dont know enough about either program to say, but for sure, keep up the good work. I have been lifting in some capacity for over half my life now, but just now really got the concept of eating clean, and man, what a difference it makes.

I might read up on those and see which I might prefer. Share your choice and why when you come to a decision.

Look up starting strength, follow that routine and eat like crazy, you'll see results..
Goals by end of 2009:
Bench 205
Squat 255 ATG
Squat Clean 185
