Just do some stupid split if you're a weightlifting-cuck.

What would you recommend then?

I am doing that routine atm as a begginer. Its working great for me. Most faggots here knock Greyskull down, but I like it.

GSLP has autoregulation which makes it better than SS/SL by default so you made the right choice familia.

Enjoy the not reaching your potential :)

You'd honestly be better off on a split than doing that, and for a lot of reasons.
If you simply don't have access to a barbell, I'd do something like PPL/PPL for 3x8-12 on the lifts.

I would not recommend what you have in the OP for many reasons. Largely, you can't make the same sort of gains with DB's as you can with a barbell linearly. In short, I'd either do [1] PPLPPL, [2] Chest tri / back bi / legs / shoulders / "arms" before what you have in the OP.

Is /fit/'s version of GSLP superior than Phrak's? Pic related.

Just a different variation which gives a bit more taper. I still think there needs to be more deadlifting.

Doing SS and squatting three times a week, adding 5lbs every time, means 260lbs in a year. That is not gonna happen. You will reset a lot, and still hit a wall eventually. Greyskull allows you to progress more realistically. Ye it's a bit slower at first but that's partially made up for with AMRAP sets.

It's a good program. Googling it finds nothing but stellar reviews and great testimonials. /fit/ doesn't like it because some numale looking guy made it popular over at le leddit and therefore we must autmatically hate it.

Most programs that have the big compounds are great for noobs, if one sticks to them. I hardly think it matters whether one counts the two warm-up sets and calls it 5x5 or just disregards them and calls it 3x5, or whatever else. It's still all the same basic program: lift heavy 3 times a week, focus on big compunds and throw in a couple of accessories if you must, and eat a lot.

Then simply deadlift more? It's a template not holy writ. Johnnie Pain, who created it, encurages variations and even gives lots of examples in his book. You wanna diddy more then diddy more.

I think it's fine to do more than 1x5 deadlifts. Personally I'll do 25-30 sets of deadlifts a week. I also think it's fine to increase by 5lbs on upper body.

You're not really supposed to stick with a beginner program for more than 3-6 months either way so I don't really see the point in nitpicking famalam.
