It's time to determine the GOAT beginner routine

>>
You fucking mongs over think it so much it is unreal

Just go to the fucking gym and lift instead of stressing about do I do 5x5, 3x5 or 8-12 reps.
>>
for hypertrophy they're all shit. Do an upper-lower that combines strength work with a bit of actual volume

Seeing this girl makes me really depressed. I even had a qt haps that was into me with a great personality but I just couldn't go out with her because she looked a lot like this girl and all I could picture was her getting facial abuse.
>>
>>40091805
most people only do one of these seeing as they're BEGINNER programs so how the fuck are we supposed to compare them? they all obviously work
>>
>>40091805
Do SS with some curlbro accessory work.

GSLP has you cranking out AMRAPs really often, for the purposes of getting strong as fast as possible and moving on to a non novice program I don't think it makes sense to fatigue yourself so much for for a negligible increase in volume. It does have some nice ideas though, like FM pushups and chinups, and pressing before squatting might work better for some.

SL has you doing 5x5 squats 3x a week initially, which is just insane when I think back to how hard LPing squats was.
>>
>>40091805
I like GS's flexibility and deloads.

Been doing stronglifts for a couple months. I like it so far, the app is pretty cool

Is there a reason why I feel like I don't see this program talked about on /fit/ that much? At least in comparison to SS/SL

Sometimes I wonder what have to happen in the brain or life for someone to do what she did. When you are looking at that face, you feel some genuine pity. When I see her eyes, right before it all happened, I've got a really strong urge to just hug her with my big arms, as a father figure, which she certainly lacked and whisper to her "my lost child".

Because, If you do take the Asian stereotypes along with the fact, that she was sort of child prodigy, wasn't she? Then her father failed even harder, because clearly he tried to grind her like a stupid gook instead of nurturing her growth.

Well thank you Mr. Alpha. After you will deal with women for a long time, in and out of relationships, you will be left with nothing but a feeling of pity towards 99% of them. They act like dumb children without guidance all the time, and at first you will hate them for it, then you ignore it, and if you grow enough as a man, you will feel pity for them.

Also, a lot of chicks have sexual fixation towards their fathers in one way or another. However, it's up to you, what you will make up out of this fact.

dude she's a spoiled rotten brat and a jew (her father is a banker). she's literally born into the elite, shoots porn in high school (she did FA when she was 18, got paid $200), then she goes off to college and what does she do? she gets thrown out for selling drugs.

this bitch deserved the abuse. she's a spoiled fucking yuppie who clearly did everything for attention.

GSLP has FM chinups in it though, that's one of the recommended templates

SS is full of flaws but it's still the best beginner program because it's the simplest, which means you're more likely to stop over thinking and get your arse in the gym

Whichever routine does that is best.

Dyels think that routines are the only thing that matters. Diet and genetics >>>>> routine

fuck you. You need to have strenght to be able to do lot of volume

People are literally doing greyskull because they're clueless dyels and pick the routine with the coolest name.

This poll is pointless anyway because the best beginner routine is clearly PPL.
>>

Doesn't the wasted potential make it even more pathetic?

Plus, think about how fucked up the guys who make this shit are. I want to break their kneecaps

Added accessorys too

The app is amazing

Just switch squat to 3x5

It may be why I jumped off it, once I started hitting weights where it took a lot of focus I couldn't do linear progression anymore since one day I could do +10 lbs and the next time maybe -15lbs

Two months lifting Grey skull. These are the results.
>>
>>40092982
yeah, that was due to fatigue accumulation from doing 5x5 squats 3x a week

it's just too much to be doing sets across like that, even SL tells you to reduce to 3x5 after your first stall iirc

>>40094456
amazing stats for 2 months, do you have an athletic background?

>>
>>40093611
Is that her?
>>
>>40092580
no, you really don't

"strength base" is a meme, you can develop strength working in higher rep ranges, as evidenced by all the benchbros who blow you the fuck out in strength and size

>>40092968
take your own advice

>>40091831
if someone is interested in aesthetics, SS is not the program to do for sure

something with higher volume for upper body and a less myopic focus on back squats would be better

Lyle McDonald's GBR for example
>>
>>40091938
I think the GSLP method of AMRAP works well for someone very early on.
say they start with like, 95 bench and do 3x5, and stick strictly to the 3x5 template, despite having maybe enough energy to get 2-3 more reps on the last set. I definitely look at that as wasted opportunity.
however, that AMRAP doesn't have to be GSLP exclusive. I didn't like that GSLP had you doing deadlifts 1x/week.
There's no good reason that you can't just do SS with last set AMRAP and get those sick CNS gains from 3x frequency squats and heavy/light floor pulls

Link? Idk what your problem is bro.

I'm doing StrongLifts at the moment and it is killer. I've been on it about 3 months now and it is effective. I took a year off of lifting after doing it for 2 years cause I was a bitch. I never thought just doing 3 lifts in a session would leave me exhausted. I recommend it.
>>
>>40095040
yeah that's what i figured
>>40094653
if you think that's good, a friend of mine started off squatting 315 and got 405 in two months

genetics are a hell of a drug
>>40094915
I would rather people just do more pressing volume than an AMRAP, maybe strip off some weight and do 2-3x8-10 bench after their 3x5

the squat volume is fine on those types of programs, deadlifts could use more volume too - maybe 2-3x8-10 RDLs after main set or at the end of the week
>>
>>40095083
As you can see by my avatar. I have huge traps but bitch shoulders. Should I do some high volume OHP after the heavy set or other shoulder accessory lifts in the days I don't train shoulders?
>>
>>40095371
definitely increase volume on your OHP, if you can bench 250 but only OHP 140 you need a lot more front delt work and a lot more practice with the movement

instead of doing the GSLP amraps, i would spam a bunch of triples and use a hepburn-method esque progression of volume

8x2
1x3,7x2
2x3,6x2
...
...
8x3
repeat

do this 2x a week, you can also take some weight off and bang out a couple higher rep sets after the main work

>>40091805
the REAL important thing is not to stick with one of these for more than 6 months
>>
I started on Stronglifts for about 2 months, then switched to GSLP. I think GSLP is better for cutting because there's less volume. The AMRAPs are good to catch if you could be lifting heavier (if you get 10+ reps on the AMRAP sets, you can double the weight you add). And finally, GSLP is designed to be very flexible and you can "plug in" whatever kind of accessories or supplemental training you want. I think the author of the program is big on conditioning with burpees and stuff.
>>
>>40100057

Why? Why not just stick with linear progression until you stop making progress? Serious question.
>>
>>40100142

The average fitizen has been lifting 6-12 months and thinks they know more than a strength coach with more years experience lifting and training others than they have years of life. Take advice here with a grain of salt, and seek out material on your own.

>>
>>40091805
GSLP is obviously better purely due to the fact that it has autoregulation.
>>
>>40100186

Autoregulation is not necessary for a novice/beginner. You should be progressing very easily each session and have no problem recovering with such little volume.
