What's your opinion on Jym Stoppani? His exercises seem memeish. For example Smith machine power clean. My friend has a pretty impressive body and he follows his workout programs. Is he a meme like Rippetoe?

He's a smart, articulate guy with opinions on fitness and steroids that I agree with. He has good articles.
Never seen his workouts so can't comment but he's a bretty cool guy and doesn't afraid of any thing

Pre/Post JYM is pretty good, best pre-workout I've had out of about five others. There's nothing special about his protein, though, it's good but overpriced. Grenade is just as good and is cheaper, same with MyProtein.
they are EXACTLY memeish, tat's a perfect word. This guy tells you to do "accelerated cardio" which is bench step ups and jumping rope between sets. The fuck?
Rippetoe advises to drink copious amounts of milk, but this guy advises to eat fucking GUMMY BEARS after a workout.
Your friend has an impressive body because he stimulates his body through exercise and probably watches his nutrition, not because of Jim Stoppani himself.

>he doesn't jump the rope between 400lbs deadlift
>he doesn't eat his gummy bears smashed + protein shake after his workout.
Never EVER gonna make it.
Is this a good program to start lifting?

Doesn't eating gummy bears post workout help increase glycogen production?
