At this stage in the game, you're prolly not gonna see drastic differences in your responses to different programming, other than eating and energy levels. As I've said before, worrying about intensity this early can be important if you're the type who will be so wiped that you will defeat the diet with the lack of activity elsewhere… but overall… in your case you're just needing a CAR… and pretty much any car will do. The level of tweaking and differences you're talking about are for much later in the game.
Not to say don't learn all you can… but we're talking small differences overall. Means a lot to someone at 10% bodyfat trying to keep all the muscle he's gotten on his last bulk… not so much to a guy who is just starting out and will maintain (or even make some gains) on pretty much any program.
So go ahead and read and learn about programming and the method to the madness of these things, but realize that as it applies to you right now… most of this is arguing about whether to get the car that has theoretically 24mpg or 25mpg.
