In this episode, Nick Delgadillo and Ray Gillenwater revisit one of the most important topics in barbell training: the Starting Strength Novice Linear Progression (NLP). Originally recorded in 2021, this conversation outlines everything you need to know about the NLP — from day one in the gym to transitioning into intermediate programming.

Whether you’re brand new to strength training or getting back under the bar after a layoff, this episode will help you understand how to approach programming with confidence.

Topics covered:

  • What actually makes someone a “novice” lifter
  • Why you should not overcomplicate your early training
  • Programming for each lift: squat, press, bench, and deadlift
  • How to know when to adjust your program — and how
  • Why most people change things too early (and fail)
  • How NLP builds confidence and transforms lives

Key quote:

“The change that you actually need to make is probably much smaller than the one you will want to make. So make the small change and then keep progress going.”
