Could I actually progress faster ?

I'm doing stronglifts 5x5. I started in September, already reached 100kg DL, 80kg SQ, 45kg bench.

Is there a way to progress faster by doing more volume ?

Yeah, roids

More volume may drive a bigger hypertrophic response provided you recover from it, it is likely to slow your strength progression though.

Do GSLP with accessories instead.

So instead of 5x5, should I do something along 3x10 ?

>Jow Forums's greyskull LP

What did you guys change compared to the original Greyskull ?

That would be a good start point. Incrementally add sets over time. Deload when neccessary. All that is assuming size is more important than strength.

The accessory exercises, you fat faggot

Okay.

What does 1x5+ mean ? Failure ?

Yes, 1 set of at as many reps as you can do. It says right on the fucking image

Phrak's variant doesn't have the accessory exercises, it's just bench press/ohp, barbell row/chinups and squat/deadlift
Jow Forums's variant contains some accessory for biceps and triceps, that's all
You could actually do any accessory you want except you're still doing GSLP's vanilla program

I know im being poked fun of, but as somebody who's trying to figure out which programme to start with now that I know starting strength is shit, idk where to go.
was going to do phraks greyskull, can you tell me why would I pick fit's instead?

If you want more volume, try lvysaur 4-4-8
As long as you keep going to the gym, it doesn't matter which program do you follow
Practice your lifts with proper form and don't mind your numbers rn

thanks

So does Jow Forums's version have everything from phraks except also arm stuff?

why would I want more volume? what difference does it make?

it's up to you, honestly. You're targeting your biceps on chinups so it doesn't really need a single exercise focused on biceps
more volume means more muscle growth

Failure is until you can't do it with strict form. You don't count reps when doing them with shit form normally.

I thought for max growth you wanted hypertrophy?
3x8 progressing to 5x12-15?

Is this wrong? what should I be going for if so?

SL is actually a good routine and the app for it is GREAT.

You could add a few accessories, curls, triceps, shoulder work.
If you can do chinups then alternate Rows with chinups.

Yes, by increasing volume and/or frequency(which in itself is a way to manage volume). It is a common misconception among retards that more volume directly implies hypertrophy gains and lack of strength prioritization, one does not take from another, unless of course you are disregarding the % relative to 1rm and like another set of retards also thinking more work means more gains for strength.

So instead of every other day, would everyday work?

Not mandatory, for instance you could be making sick gains at three sessions per week doing 5x5, 2-3 push pull exercises, alternating between squats and hinges(not necessarily Back squat and conventional deadlift), lunges, weighted carries or oly lifts. Add some exercises(between sets and exercises)for areas that require direct work: neck, rear/side delt, rhomboids/rotator cuffs, abs/obliques/erectors, hamstrings and calves.(perhaps some of those hip muscles, that for some people require a special attention).

One a side note if you do 5x5 5xWeek, I'd recommend choosing a more diverse exercise selection for upper body.
