Anabolic Diet and SS?

[Ryan Lynch]

Hi Coach,

I've been on the Anabolic Diet for 2 weeks now and am getting ready to do the Starting strength program. I've been doing Crossfit for a few weeks, but I haven't lifted Iron in a long time. So my goal at this point is basically to get the form and execution down of the lifts and of course get some basic strength before I go back to Crossfit.

I'd like to get your thoughts on this idea and the Anabolic Diet in general.

I have no experience with the Anabolic Diet, and this board is not really focused on diet. But if you've been doing CrossFit without lifting weights, I'd be interested in what version of CrossFit you're doing, since lifting weights is an integral part of CrossFit.
