A Lifter's Guide To LP

Oh... Lol... I'm gonna have to use the search function some more and look into this.

I saw a vid with Rj Riches the guy was working his quads with foam roller in between his squat sets during rest period he called it active rest.

Today marks exactly a year since I started the Starting Strength program and any form of LP programming for that matter. It's been a hell of a time. It's amazing what you can learn in a year.

Just a little update on myself for those interested in life after LP. I have been cutting and following Texas Method since November. There have been a few weeks if inconsistency and alternative programming but for the most part, I've followed TM and I've completed 9 full weekly cycles.

Initially I set some PRs but as the deficit set in I've had a slight regression and it's been tough to maintain my numbers. However, I've enjoyed TM so far and tomorrow, my intensity day top set on squats is 5x125kg, which is EXACTLY what I finished LP on. I will get it. My deadlift is now 2.5kg stronger at 152.5kg and my bench and OHP are slowly making their way back from injury.

Long story short, I have maintained ALL MY STRENGTH, and I'm 7kg/15.4lbs lighter. Verdict: You can cut on TM after you get fat on LP
