Re: Starting Rippetoe Today: A Few Questions Before I Start
I wouldn't worry about the arm imbalance for now. Start worrying after you've added a bunch of weight to your big lifts. I bet that'll fix it.
Drink a surge or maybe half a surge before your workout. Solid meal is fine too, but like kinda said, give yourself some time to digest it.

The way to burn the most fat from cardio is to do 45-60 minutes of light cardio @ 65-70% of your target heart rate (220-age) first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. This level of cardio will burn off the most fat as higher intensity cardio will burn away protein/muscle after depleting the carbs.
[/ QUOTE ]Disagree. It's important to consider what is burned long after the workout, in addition to what happens during the workout. I'm pretty sure the consensus is building that HIIT pwns light cardio for fat burning purposes.

Whatever type of cardio you choose, I highly recommend separating lifting from cardio.
