I am assuming they expect an applicant to have at least some sort of undergrad degree in any field any other than CS to be considered for their MSCS program. I don't have any degree yet.
For barbell training, Starting Strength is a fantastic introduction.
For kettlebell training, I would sooner look to Pavel Tsatsouline's Simple & Sinister for a simple and effective program that can be run by beginners for a good long while.
>because of my back issues, I was wondering how to approach doing it. Also, I'm a bit worried if the high intensity would lead to any kind of injuries. Your suggestions are very handy thank you.
youre very welcome. if your back had healed a bit, consider gravity boots. my discs are in 5/6 and 8/9, upper region. so i couldnt do anything but swing 2kg dumbbells around very carefully. once the nerves calmed down and it was more muscular pains, i managed to utilize the gravity boots effectively. 60 seconds after training, and sleep after or head to a sports massuese then eat protien and sleep. 7 months in, 80% better.
as to intensity and the 60m crossfit, just try a single round and leave, with 20 stations and 25sec rest, its around 20 minutes worth. keep an eye for the pain, and get one decompression excersize to do before bed everyday if you can help it. by the rate this is going i think ill heal 100% by mid 2019 which is a better prospect than thinking im fucked for life.
Exactly, you'd expect a site such as linked in would be better in this regard. It seems they harvest your contacts and send emails on your behalf nagging everyone you know to join linkedin. An absolute disgrace.
