Should I stay with FF30X or move to OSM?

Question:

Should I stay with FF30X or move to Old School Muscle?

Short Answer:

Whether or not to stay on our FF30X path or move onto the OSM path boils down to your goals and what you are trying to achieve at this time.

Longer Answer:

FF30X is our flagship loss program, where we focus more on metabolic training, mixed with high-intensity interval training to help you shed the pounds. Old School Muscle on the other hand, is our growth program, where we focus on more traditional strength-training to help you build muscle and strength. Both are fantastic programs and when to transition really depends on your current goals.

With FF30X, you are eating at a caloric deficit, to help you trim down whereas OSM has you eating at a caloric surplus, to help with growth. Additionally, we recommend our members to be between at least 15-20% body-fat (closer to 15% is ideal) before trying OSM because the goal is to grow! We also recommend our members to have a solid foundation of lifting (which FF30X can help provide) as well as access to a wider range of equipment. 

So if there is any part of you that still wants to work on losing the body-fat, sticking with the FF30X path makes the most sense. It's much easier to shed the fat now, and then build back up, rather than the other way around. If you flipped to working on growth now, if/when you decide to trim down in the future you may lose some of your newly developed muscle along the way. Plus, it's actually easier for you to put on muscle in a leaner state. 

If you are ready to transition to OSM, take a look at this guide to help transition you to a different frame of mind, because the programs are completely different.
