Hi,

Firstly read this, it is a good summary on the justification of different training splits.

I would suggest you start a full body workout. This would be a place to start:

Don’t be afraid to eat. If you eat clean, your new lifting will cause a shift in your body composition. Read some Berardi articles for help on this.

Start with the threads on top of the beginners’ posts:

You’ll find a wealth of info here so avoid “analysis paralysis”. As a beginner pretty much everything will work for you so get started with regular workouts and eat as clean as you can. Study up on the articles here so you will be ready for more advanced routines when the time comes.

Good Luck!
