**Stats**  
68 year old male  
5’8"  
200lbs - need to lose weight  
36" waist

**e1RM**  
Squat - 275lbs  
Deadlift - 300lbs  
Bench - 200lbs  
Press - 135lbs

**History**  
SSLP -  
Bridge 1.0 - Twice. At week 7 now.

I just want to stay strong and remain functional, especially in the the outdoors.

Right now, I have tweaked my inner thigh muscle on several occasions but I’m being more conservative on weight.  
Should I run the Bridge 3 .0, HLM or 12 week?

Thanks in advance

This is probably going to be the best answer you get…
