The thing is: if you lift BIG weights (think of 2/3/4/5 if you're tall or 1/2/3/4 if you're short) you will look big no matter what your program diet is, and you'll probably won't be bothered by the looks; however, if you're scrawny guy and your goal is only look good, not to have big lifts, there are better ways to reach your goal, that is, by proper dieting and doing lots of volume programs (PHUL, Candito LP, PPL etc). If you opt for the latter, you'll likely won't get to 1/2/3/4 in under two years, but you will look somewhat good in a year tops.
The strength=size meme is getting out of hand. The strength-base for most beginners looking for hypertrophy should be 1pl8 for bench and 2 pl8 for squats/dl, not 1/2/3/4, but something you get in a couple months or so in worst cases scenarios (ie a BASE).

This was well known on early 2010's /fit/, but in the last few years a few SS-victims seem to have spread this meme around.
At the same time, they call everyone that's bigger than themselves a roider, and wonder why their powerlifting routine isn't the 100% best way to get big

Someone explain this whole 'hypertrophy training' thing to me because 2bh everyone just says "Yeah do more volume yeah" but they don't actually explain a fuckin thing.

umm... just do lots of reps for lots of sets. look at the candito strength/hypertrophy program. the "hypertrophy days" are pretty indicative of what hypertrophy training is.

Yes. I agree
And splits are good for Natty's, you can absolutely destroy a muscle and have it need to recover a

Brah. Come on now, you sound like you don't have the faintest understanding of training at all. It's all progressive overload man. It's all strength training at the end of the day just different rep ranges. Increasing your 1rm and your 8rm is all strength training.
