I need some advice, /fit/. I've been following SS (rows instead of power cleans) for about 3 months and all my lifts have improved pretty well all while gaining 1-2 pounds a week. I got worried about TREX mode, so i supplemented the program with upper body compound Accesories such as bodyweight dips, pullups, and preacher curls (not compound i know) - all at the end of my session.
Even with the Accesories i was horrified to look in the mirror and see my legs looking fucking massive compared to my upper body body. Should i increase volume of bench /ohp/rows or decrease volume of squats and diddys? Any other good accessories?

Your legs should always be your biggest muscle retard, the quad is the biggest muscle in the human body. Your progress is pretty good desu.
Don't worry about the T-rex mode meme

nobody follows ss by the book because it's fucking awful
>>40754768
Yea power cleans definitely help balance out the program
>>40754768
I own the book and it literally says you can substitute power cleans for rows, but it is not ideal.
Weak calves is such a bad look

Starting Strength page 275:
"BARBELL ROWS
First, barbell rows are not a substitute for power cleans."

"le SS is a meme" is a meme dude. Don't fall for this idiot's bait, you're making solid progress on SS.
