INTRODUCTION
I am starting the PTTP!-program on 3 september. My primary goal is the double-bodyweight deadlift. It seems like a reasonable start, and I will aim higher if I achieve it fast. Current bodyweight is 72 kg.
I considered going for the Simple goal, but only yesterday decided on pursuing the deadlift goal first - mainly because I have found a nice groove with barbell training on StrongLifts 5x5 and consider it wise to continue on that road a bit longer.
To accompany the deadlift I will use the strict, barbell military press as the press of choice. The side press is not out of the equation yet, even if it would grant me a lot of funny looks in the gym.
Power to the People! seems perfect for laying a solid foundation in barbell training. My previous background in training is mostly based around calisthenics and basic gymnastic training, along with some basic kettlebell lifts.
