Beginners program

Just finished first week of this program and am quite happy with it.

I have been doing it in the order that is written by PTC

it is; Squats > Bench Press > Bent Row > Military Press > Deadlift > BB Curl.


I am confused when you say "You don't want to follow up benching with overhead pressing"
Are you saying I shouldn't be doing the press after the bench?

I was giving an example of what to try and avoid, if possible, when following this beginners strength program.

You are doing it correctly because you are following the order that is written. :)

I am currently doing the PTC beginners program and have had strength gains, breaking PRs on every exercise. However, I have begun the process of cutting by reducing my calorie intake and I can't decide if I should continue doing the beginners program until I stall on every exercise (I have stalled on every exercise except for squats and stiff-legged deadlifts) and then switch to Madcows or if i should switch to Madcows immediately and when I finish cutting and start bulking again, so back to the beginners program.
