This, you aren't eating enough of a caloric surplus to grow muscle at the rate the program demands. Either work more calories into your diet or switch programs to one that is more in line with your goals. BTW, clean bulking is a meme. Your body can't tell the difference between 300 calories from a chicken leg and 300 calories from a triple mcFattyburger

Deadlift every other workout, as the program calls for. Squat everyday >>40302170
Bench is hardest to progress for me, for some reason. I have unnaturally long arms for my height, idk if that would be relevant.

How many calories should I be aiming for? 3k seems high for 155lbs, and Im getting 1g protein per pound of bodyweight

>Deadlift every other workout, as the program calls for.

Fun fact, had you read the book, you would have deadlifted every day for the first two weeks or so.

Doesn't really matter, didn't set you back.

So the first thing I would address would be sleep, do better than 6-8. Get 8.

Now, I'm inclined to believe a couple things are holding you back:

Mental Block - the most difficult thing most first time lifters have to get over. Chances are you could easily tack on another 5 lbs, you're just not used to working at higher rates of exertion. Grit your teeth and try harder.

Form Issues - Next worksets, set up your phone on a box or bench, and film yourself. Swing by /plg/ anytime you want one of the big three looked at, we'd be happy to help.

Food - Don't worry about eating "clean" mate, just worry about eating. Get yourself that +500 cals over TDEE (remember, TDEE includes calories expended by your workout)

If you address all of these things, and you are still stuck, it may be time to switch up programs, but as you haven't yet hit numbers one would expect at your weight, I doubt this.

Goodluck lad.

That seems unreasonably weak to me. I stopped lifting for 10 years, and when I started up again I started at 150.

(5'8" 260 lbs when I started)
