How much better is this than SS?

It'll work just about as well as SS would if you did weighted chinups every workout

Do this instead. Best novice routine for strength if you dont want to look like shit.

What text editor is being used for those pics?

>>40806800
Looks nice, thanks.

>>40806800

Can anyone explain what the fuck AxBxCxx means?

>>40807252
x days off, letters are which workout you do that day of the week.

>>40806800
Can I do both curls and lateral raises every workout? Also what are the guidelines regarding accessories?

>>40806427
a lot
It has same principles as all beginner exercises but this one doesn't make you hate yourself

Its recommended in the sticky, but you should read the book, Greyskull LP Second edition

>>40807839
>read book X
>have to make brain gains for gains

I'd do the Fierce 5 Novice routine bodybuilding.com forum

Workout A
Squat 3x5
Bench 3x5
Pendlay Rows 3x8
Face Pulls 3x10
Calf raises 2x15/Tricep pressdowns 2x10 Superset

Workout B
Front Squat 3x5
Overhead Press 3x5
Romanian Deadlift 3x8
Lat Pulldowns 3x8 (any grip)
Ab work 2x15/Bicep curls 2x10 Superset (I don’t care what ab work you do)

From skeleton to big with greyskull? Sounds neat tbqh.

Whatever happened to that site? It was much better than ours in terms of actual lifts and instructions

>>40807832
Yes, sure

It literally makes no fucking difference. Pick a beginner barbell routine, any standard routine SS, SL, GSLP, ICF, Reg Park's Beginner. Run it for about 6 months to a year or whatever that you have linear gains. Move on to intermediate routine specialising in whatever you're into bb, plg, owg, etc. Idiots.

nigga did you just use an IDE to write up a fitness routine

This is my program, but I cut rows and only do chin ups. Am I fucked?

>>40806800
I'm doing SL for 1.5 mo. Should I stick with it or change for this program?

>>40812109
I highly prefer GS.

>>40812109

Depends. I'd say GS is more balanced, but I personally respond better to 5 sets of 5. If 3x5 is enough for you to adapt to the weight, then totally switch.

>>40806427
negative ten tendies better.

The big problem is that AMRAP is the worst idea for beginners for any big lift.

It does get points for squatting only twice a week instead of three, the most ridiculous part of Starting Strength.

I think power cleans are a better idea than rows, but whatever. And Pendlay rows are way better than Yates rows.

The accessories in >>40806800 are silly.
If you must, I'd go with either strict (ideally barbell) curls (and switch chin-ups to pull-ups) or wrist curls + calf raises.

And for chin-ups (or pull-ups) I think you should be able to do at least 10 reps, and preferably 15 at bodyweight before you try weighted, and once you can, you should do 3x8, not 3x5.

>>40810382
This too though.

>>40806427
If I don't start off with squats I just say "fuck it" and skip squats

It's just one more newb variant. It's. either better not worse, just different.
