FWIW, I started FT with a 16w prep, changing from DC training with cardio. I havent touched cardio, barely touched food, and just moving from tier 1 to tier 2 had resulted in a DRASTIC defect that I didn't expect nor plan for.
I think the key is intensity. I comprehended it because there was only 1 set in DC. Treat every set as you ONE set. Withhold a rep or 2 where needed. GET A DAMN WATCH TO TIME YOURSELF. Spend time actually sitting down and structuring your workouts. I MAY jump to tier 3, dont think I can TURBO tier 2 without running into issues, but I'm pleasantly surprised at the hole its creating for me and allowing me to push back cardio, keeping my legs from fading/feeling like jello for too long.
