#Lifting is simple. 🏋️‍♂️💪

1. Setup your garage using $2500 of 'built for life' gear. Keep it simple. I recommend rack, plates, barbell, collars, and mats from https://www.thestrength.co/.

2. Starting light, learn the Starting Strength form queues for The Big Four (squat, deadlift, press, bench) using Rippetoe's method, for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dacy5hjaE8

3. Setup a simple logbook to record progress. Aim to add reps each week and then weight once reps consecutively exceed 10. Make a little progress each week. Lifting is a lifelong discipline. Don't rush it. Start light and celebrate consistency over strength.

Weightlifting is about strength and discipline. Jaquish's hypertrophy method is gimmicky and focuses on muscles andb physique. Not my kind od scene.

I like the idea of his X3 system for nomadism/vacations, tho.
