Still can't decide on a workout program. Looked at the before and after of the StrongLifts 5x5 and was disappointed. I did bodyweight exercises for years and still look better than almost all the guys in the after photos for the program. Is this workout program just a meme or is there a better one out there for people beginning to lift?

Been lifting for two months, started this:
Don't know if it's the best, but my lifts have been increasing each workout so I'm happy for now.

Firstly, looking good is about bodyfat.
A guy who fucks about in his bedroom doing bodyweight, but keeps 10% bodyfat, will look better than someone who lifts for 2 years but has 20% bodyfat.
Pic is me as an example. I gained no muscle between pictures, I just dropped bodyfat.
SS, stronglifts and all the other generic beginner strength routines are great for getting stronger fast, and gaining muscle mass, but of course if you are eating as you should be for those goals, you will gain some fat too, hence why people look shit in the after photos.
Really though, routine isn't that important, as long as you aim to make progress and eat for your goals, and put in the work, you will get where you want to be. The other thing is you have to have patience, no routine will have you looking good in and out of clothes in 6 months.

And how long did you go from bulking to cutting?
