Been doing the 5x5 stronglifts for about 3 mo the now and still not really big..what am I doing wrong?
>>
>>39550247

You thought 3 months of training was going to transform you into something else. Are you progressing on your lifts? All that matters right now.
>>
>>39550247
Pateince, you'll never be as big as you want to be anyways, i'm four years in and when I started I said I'd be satisfied with 1/2/3/4. Relax, lift, enjoy your noob gains and as the years, Y E A R S pass you'll find yourself gettting significantly bigger and stronger.
>>
Add accessories if you wants aesthetics, but only do them when you're done with your main lifts
>>
>>39550247
>>39550293
Or just roid like crazy, but even that'll get you minmal gains in 3 months lmao
>>
>>39550254
I have been progressing. I stopped for a month due to vacation but started back up again, so really 2 months on, 1 month off, and one month back on again
>>
>>39550247
Literally nothing except for create a thread that could've been answered with a google search.

Keep following the program, keep progressing, and when your gainz stall move onto the Texas Method (or Madcow if you're a faggot).
>>
>>39550293
I know people that have transformed and got pretty ripped over just a summer...am I just not eating enough?

For starters, you're expecting results in 3 months.

What are your current lifts? What was your starting point?

Is this with, or without the bar weight
>>
>>39550450
With the bar weight. I use the app to track he weights

>>39550418
Isn't he a Jew?
>>
>>39550463
not sure if I want to switch to a different routine that's strength based, 5x5 3 days a week is getting fucky and i'm only doing a little less weight than your current
>>
>>39550430
I was impressed with your squat until I saw your other lifts

>dl lower than squat
oh shit nigger what are you doing
>>
>>39550569
I should stop following the app maybe....it just starts you out at random shit and just increments 5lbs each time.
>>
>>39550592
youre supposed to increase at 5 lbs per session, yeah

but I can almost guarantee if you load up 225 youll be able to deadlift it
>>
>>39550602
Actually I don't think it would be too hard to dl 225...I follow the app without thinking. I actually started failing on OH press and I think it was due to form. I think I fixed my form though, I watched media videos and it looks like his elbows are straight in front of his chest when he presses
>>
>>39550418
What do you do for a living that doesn't allow you to have $10 to spend for an app?
>>
>>39550430
Make sure you are going all the way down on the squats. I thought I was squatting 275lbs until I realized I wasn't breaking parallel and had to suck it up and deload. I had to take video as I work out alone using a squat rack.
>>
>>39550711
I don't pay for it... It's free lol

Try lifting newfriend.
>>
>>39550837
Candito LP, PHUL, PHAT, 2suns 531 lp are all better transition programs. Texas method has squat volume and shit volume for everything else. Madcow has shit volume period. You want to get results gotta put in the volume
>>
What kind of results would a routine like SL give me if I switch the main lifts to 10x3? With some added accesories that are 3x10

Yeah go ahead follow Rippetoe and stay forever small.
>>
>>39550877
starting with 90 lbs doesn't mean that was his old 5rep max...

i started the same routine 2 months ago and im at 170, with no problem increasing the weight every time so far
>>
>>39550911
You wouldn't happen to be in the fit whatsapp chat, would you? That's my meme
>>
>>39550877
Lol that's completely possible you're insane.
>>
>>39550903
If all the sets are near failure you'd get better gains than doing 3x5.

>>39550918
whats your height and weight.
>>
>>39550954
187 cm, 75-78 kg
>>
>>39550980
ok. you will not be squatting 225 on that program in another months time.
>>
>>39551023
Impossible to tell. If he eats enough it's well within the realm of possibility.
>>
>>39550950
I'll give it a try with current weight, but how should I increase my weight with 10x3?
>>
>>39550335
wtf? faggot
>>
>>39551035
to 5x5 225 when hes at 170 in 2 mos? Cmon now. He has a deload in him before he gets there even if he eats like a horse.
>>
>>39550430
No offense but with your starting lifts I'm guessing you weigh around 125-150lbs, prob 5'10-6ft. Now your current lifts are not too terrible, give it another 3 months and your lifts will prob be decent.
>>
>>39551023
2 months on the program, i'm 5'7, 130 pounds or so and squatting 185, proper form and proper depth, i know bc i stopped at 180 for a bit to make sure my form was up to standard. it's really not tough to believe someone bigger than me would get 2 plate squat in 3 months
>>
>>39551100
ok your right. so are the other two guys who have been lifting 3 mos max. ill just take my multiple years worth of knowledge and fuck right on off. gl to all 3 of you.

5x5 is for strength
>>
>>39550430
Holy fuck bro.

I squat 140 and deadlift 215. I have proportionally long legs and go as deep as I can though.

deadlift 275 x2

rate me
5'10 170

>>39551052
You're a moron. Rippetoe had Zach squatting 345x5 in 6 months. Getting to 2 plate in 3 months is totally achievable.
>>
>>39551525
Comparing that extravagant situation to some rando who needs to make a thread on 4chan asking why he isnt jacked and tan after 3 months lifting is quite a reach.
>>
I am 3 weeks into Strong Lifts, but I'm just doing it to get strength training into my regimen to lose the rest of the weight I'd like. I'm 262 (down from 427) and I'd like to get to 220.

I have no idea what I'm doing LOL I just watched youtube video from buff faggots and hope I don't fuck anything up.
