    Body for life Fullbody question

    after reading the bfl book and reading some of the threads on bfl I was wondering if it would be wise to use bfl with say a full body routine?

    this is what I was thinking of

    squat 12/10/8/6/12
    bench 12/10/8/6/12
    row 12/10/8/6/12
    military press 12/10/8/6/12
    stiff leg deadlift 12/10/8/6/12

    1 min rest between sets

    and then setting up the schedule to look like this

    mon wieghts
    tues hiit
    wed weights
    thurs hiit
    fri weights
    sat 60 min jog
    sun rest/cheat day

    let me know what you guys think

    The routine in the book is a good one in my opinion. Just follow that for now.

    Unless you have lifting experience already and know your body, I would go by what's in the book. If you're new to all this I would do one challenge (3 months) as it is in the book before switching it up. Lots of people have gotten great results from what's in the book as written. Just don't make it too complex and start second guessing Bill.

    Since you're just starting out and cutting, I wouldn't advise you to ramp up volume too much just yet. Learn the proper forms on the lifts, get in consistent workouts, and the fundamentals of nutrition before taking things too far. Your workouts you posted look fine though.
