[bruteforce]

A close friend of mine is looking to begin strength training. He's looking for a 2x a week lifting routine at first, maybe going into more as time moves on. The good news is he'll have his PhD in mathematics in under a year, so numbers and percentages won't scare him later on.

Basics:
Height: 6'1"ish
Weight: ~ 135 pounds

Goal: Get stronger and in better shape. He's not looking to get huge, doesn't care about working arms particularly, not looking to powerlift or be a runner. Just stronger so that he doesn't end up like the old men in the math department, shuffling around, hunched over by the time they are 60.
