i know everyone shits on zachs "progress" but considering that he trains for strength i think its fantastic
His squat went from 145 x 5 to 345 x 5 in 6 months, who cares if he looks a little fat now?
>>38121523
He looks terrible and has hardly any muscle.

a normal person would say
>He looks fat, who cares that his squat went from 145 x 5 to 345 x 5 in 6 months?

it was actually less than 4 months
Rippetoe's words:
>Zach is about 6' 1". It was 15 weeks unless I miscounted - all of 3 months and some change. His squat was stuck after a slight bout of novice termination. His bench is at 240 x 5, DL is 325 x 5, press is about 145 x 5, PC is about 176 x 3.

That's true, I don't know what exact percentage is said, but it is like 18 or 20%. Rippletits assumes skellies get fatter and fatties get slimmer if they follow the program
