Hello, names Al
not new to barbells but haven't lifted in 15 years(49yo).
But have used kbs off and on in past ten years.
last year did S&S almost to simple standard, but hurt my back and never got back into it regularly after I healed up. just some occasional S&S training.
Last summer I felt fantastic before I stopped training. This year I have really felt weak and unconditioned, so I decided to change that.
Besides my kettlebells, I equipped myself with a barbell, bench and stands.
Tried starting strength for four weeks with some S&S 1 or 2 times a week. Found that the back squat once it started getting heavy started to give me some warning pains, so I stopped.
recouped a couple weeks and have tried Zercher squats and I really like them better.
I reread easy strength a couple times and felt with my age, that that is probably the route I should take to getting stronger.
So I would love some feed back on my new plans. The thing I really learned in S&S was stick to the plan long term, no changing the plan every other week. Well her it is:
Easy Strength Zercher squats and bench press 10 reps per session ie.5x2,2x5,3x3,6x1,532.
twice a week.
S&S twice a week.
Thank you for any input.
