I didnt "meddle" myself with it.
>>38755265
The programm i follow added volume in comparison to normal SS.

>>38755246
How long are you resting for?

>>38755300
between sets I mean

>Using a program made by an imaginary character from a videogame

Just do SS; beginners don't have to do complex shit to gain muscle.

>>38755304
I rest 3min between sets. And i need it for allmost all lifts atm. The 4x4 OHP i can still do with 2min rest but im not at my limit with that lift yet.

>>38755318
I did SS some years ago. Had no good results, because i was cutting. I know.
Ivysaurs is SS with more volume, less squats and more upper body. But the core is the same. Heavy compound lifts.

>kek'd at these work weights
Just don't give a shit about food, eat everything that moves, don't count calories (if you are ectomorph ofc).

If you're struggling to bench that much for that many reps at your body weight, your technique probably sucks. Pushups are about that heavy for you and you can probably do like 20 pretty easily. Make sure you're not doing anything dumb with how you're performing the movement.

Why do this to yourself.

>>38755246

Two POUNDS is the max amount of muscle you can gain a month. Not two kilograms. You're gaining too much fat.

>>38755246

Where did the guy who made this program pull this 5kg/week linear progression from?
I'm just thinking the number can't possibly be the same for people of different age/gender/height/lifestyles.

Imagine you were doing 1kg/week progression from the start for whatever reason. You'd never hit the limits of your body. Would you be happy then? Of course not. The way I see it, is that the fact that you are having trouble increasing the weight means you are finally doing things right, you are progressing at maximum pace.

Do the fucking program as written you pretentious cunt!

>>38755454
fuck, you are right. Should i lower the kcal intake?

>>38755481
Is it not in line wie Rippletit's progression? SS says to add per workout, ivysaurs to add per week. I think that adds up to almost the same.

>>38755654
It's very fucking different. Rippletits has you add 2.5kg PER WORKOUT. The difference in loading is staggering.

But since you're already stupid enough to have fucked up the simplest and most effective strength building program there is (cutting when you're clearly the fucking lord of skeletons), I doubt you'll be smart enough to understand why this is the case, so yeah, do whatever you want.

>>38755712
I was at 85kg and cutted to 75kg. More like lord of lard.

>>38755357
rest more, 5-10 minutes if you need

SS claims another victim

>>38756342
for two years, that's pretty fucking shit progress, I've known people get in better shape just by diet in around a year.

>>38755246
Not doing 4x5.

>>38756342
Anybody running SS for two years is A) not even doing the program as written and B) fucking off hard pretty much the entire time.
