I've recently (as of Wednesday) begun the Starting Strength routine. I've read a lot of conflicting advice with regards to nutrition. Some say eat 6000 calories a day including a gallon of milk (GOMAD) and others say you need to eat above your maintenance by a mere 500-1000 calories. Considering my goal is to build size and muscle with minimal fat, which path should I follow?
In addition, I've read people criticising SS for developing the bottom half (bum, calves, hammys, quads etc) and neglecting the upper body. If I had to sacrifice one for the other it would be my lower body so should I pick another routine which targets upper body and arms/balances progression, or stick with SS?
Any advice would be appreciated.
