Is StrongLifts any good for getting more toned?

I'm basically a twig boy but my stomach is getting kind of chubby. I got into StrongLifts and I like the routine but apparently it's only for strength training and not actually looking good, I don't know how true that is. I mostly just want to have thicker arms and a flatter, more toned stomach after the next few months. Is that something that's going to happen?

Also I've been keeping a diet of chicken, fruit, vegetables, tuna, eggs, oatmeal, and stuff like that

Looked this up and it seems like both are vague terms for a bunch of different routines that may or may not be effective/efficient

I haven't worked out since high school (like a decade ago) so I really need help figuring out exactly what I should be doing

It's ok do it for 3-6 months then do a U/L or PPL

no

strength routines like that won't make you aesthetic, they ignore so much

OP check out this article
https://www.strongerbyscience.com/complete-strength-training-guide/
Focus on getting your body used to lifting with a beginner program like this, then switch to a different program for aesthetics when you start to plateau.

5x5 is the biggest meme routine ever. Try Volume training if you want to build muscle and burn fat simultaneously.

Its a good routine but add more upper body work like Incline bench and maybe some lateral raises and pullups

>More upper body
Really? So far I feel like my chest and upper arms have been feeling the most tense after a workout. I hardly feel anything in my abs and legs

>>41729428
I did SL5X5 for a while without extra upperbody work and my legs are disproportionally big now

Read the sticky. Here's how I know you didn't:

Honestly SS and SL are too lower body centric and as we know nobody cares about lower body. Do Greyskull Phraks for half a year then hop onto PPL / UL for aesthetics or 531 for Strength.
