re: Pen and Paper Strength App

Thanks lsu777 and Gings5 for the input. As for the aesthetics template, you’re suggesting the one you have in the GSLP master thread and run it for 3 months, correct? I see there are two weeks set up, but is it basically putting that on repeat for week after week for 3 months? Appreciate the advice. Like I said it’s been a long time since I’ve done serious weightlifting.

Gings5 - Re: HIIT, I was working out at Orange Theory (a boutique as someone else in another thread mentioned) for the last 4-5 years. It was great for getting me back into the swing of working out after a long period of being sedentary. With young kids, I liked that I could get a workout in at 5 am before kids were up, and that I didn’t have to plan. It got me into great shape cardiovascular wise, but there just isn’t enough time (or equipment) to really focus/emphasize weight training or muscle gains (which is really my biggest knock on it). Over that last year+ I started supplementing that with dumbbell/kettlebell and TRX work at home. I’m just ready to shift more to a weightlifting focus at this point.
