hi /fit/, started SS 4 months ago, never lifted before then. i was a 23 y/o 5'8 skellington dyel with a 6/10 face. and khv
last month i lost my khv to my current and first gf. she is an 8/10 by /soc/ standards. please dont think im boasting - im hoping this will inspire any of you lurkers who have a defeatist mentality and think it isnt worth the effort. earlier she just told me that im fitter than most of her skellington exes. im extremely dyel by /fit/ standards, but SS metaphorically saved my life. thanks to rippetoe and all the fitizens who kept telling me to eat more when i was stalling even though i insisted i was way over my TDEE already (i wasnt)
also rate my progress

i started from the bottom of all purple, like almost subpar pink. and these 4 months included my learning period, which means it had a lot of bad form and non ATG where i had to deload to get the form right. and a lot of stalling because i wasnt eating right. it wasnt 4 months of smooth progress. it was 4 months starting from a DYEL body and DYEL mentality

SS is designed for maximum gainz. You're supposed to eat a shitload of food and do all of the accessories. Hardly anyone does SS right, 4 months should've gotten you to intermediate.
>>40140203
oh yeah i did it on a slow bulk
but 4 months from subpar/untrained to intermediate? fuck duuuuuuuuuuuuuude oh well
>>40140203
you're not supposed to do all the accessories you fucking retard
>hardly anyone does SS right
>advises OP to do SS wrong
its decent progress, keep it up opie, remember everyone on fit benched 1pl8 on their first go
>>40140242
That is not decent progress at all. 4 months and thats it? You are retarded
>>40140114
>8/10 by /soc/ standards
So a 5/10?
>>40140182
yes it's a meme. people claim to become intermediate in a very short time are either already very strong or just lying.
like, one guy was a semi professional rugby player, 6'5" and got to a 4 plate deadlift within two months and gave shit to people who were skinny office workers for not getting as strong as fast
>>40140612
more like a 3/10
