  • Mark Rippetoe’s Starting Strength is pretty good. Its a really simple routine of like 5 exercises using the barbell, and it’s all about high intensity low reps. Makes it easy to get into and also makes your workouts pretty short, which is nice. I like to throw in a little cardio before and after too.

    He did a pretty good series of videos with The Art of Manliness (lol) on yt where he coaches a relative beginner through barbell technique. Good info and none of that channels other politics are present in that series.

    It’s also the basis for Stronglifts 5x5, which is a pretty handy app that keeps track of a lot of stuff for you. But it’s pretty simple if you’re ok with just using a notebook too.
