I don't know anthing about EFS and wouldn't presume to guess about the program, but I can tell you on the FSD weight training doesn't come into play until P3 I believe. The reason for this is ostensibly that muscle weighs more than fat. If you start weight training at the beginning of a diet, you will not lose as much weight or possibly gain some. Even though this is healthy (and trainers will tell you the most efficient way to get in shape is to diet and lift concurrently), people pushing diets will advise holding off on the weights so you see results on the scale (which is what most people equate success with) rather than in body fat %.
