Hello,
I used to lift a few years ago and stopped for no reason. I am looking to get back into it so when I lose the 20-30 lbs I need to I will look fit and sexy!
What is a good program to follow? I have access to a gym with a great weight room
Thank you

Any program with progressive overload, provided you are losing weight slowly and getting plenty of protein.
Check out StrongLifts or 5/3/10 -
There is no "best". Take your pick:

Any of those will get you there.0
