SS and Fat People

[jwm79]

I'm 29, 6' and 300 lbs. I want to buy the book, but I'm wondering if it would be right for me? Would you recommend not worrying about fat loss until after the intial program or lose weight before starting any lifting. Any answers would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Fat loss will occur while the initial program is being followed. It is not necessary to wait until the novice phase is completed to go on the Zone diet. I'd do it now.

Thanks for the advice.
