I'm trying to not make excuses for delaying working out, but I'm 60 pages in and they haven't said anything worth caring about. Like great, you're telling me the history of gyms and how anatomy works. When do I work out?

    Starting Strength is no longer recommended as a good beginner program, there are much better ones out there. I had solid success with 5/3/1 as an intermediate lifter and it got me nearly to a 500lb deadlift at 190lbs body weight, although it's been a couple of years since I have been lifting seriously and I don't know if there's anything that's objectively better that someone else can suggest.
