Don't want to play around with the program but could you do cleans instead of BB curls?

I do mma and as Markos was saying fighters do well with cleans and push presses I thought the cleans would be far more benefical than bb curls.

Do a different program that is more suited to you.

I just did this program today for the first time. I am new to lifting (had inconsistently attempted starting strength).

This workout completely fucked me.

This is what i got through, the weights i used i just guessed based on what i have done previously. Will be using trial and error.

I weigh 61kgs


Squat 10x 60kgs, 7x 60, 7x 60

Bench 8x 40kgs, 8x 40, 6x 40

Row 8x 30, 8x 30, 8x 30

MP 8x 25, 6x 25, 5x 25

Dead 8x 60, 8x 60, 8x 60

BB curl 8x 17.5, 8x 17.5, 8x 17.5


My arms and legs are now like jelly, i expect to not be able to move tomorrow. Ill be heading back to the gym on friday (2 days time).


I want to make a journal to track my progress, im off to find the right section!

Thanks to all who have contributed to this topic

what progression?

Now, if your a beginner, here is what you need to do, for between 3-12 months.

Squat 3 x 10
Bench press 3 x 8
Bent row 3 x 8
Military press 3 x 8
SLDL 3 x 8
BB curl 3 x 8

Do this 3 times a week. Progressively add weight.

Hi PTC, what weight progression would you suggest for beginners?
