SS is just a
>starting
program its not meant to make you look good fucking brainlet
Chase Morgan
I don't get it
Connor Cook
Obviously it's not. No one will look even close to good by eating in caloric surplus for whole year while doing 3 exercises 3 times a week.
Cameron Morgan
I ran starting strength, obviously it's not optimal but it did its job and then I recently got off it onto different programming. You can do a lot worse than SS if you aren't retarded with your nutrition.
Samuel Carter
Nicholas Brown
>whole year
Not even close
>3 exercises
Only for the first weeks.
Look, there's a lot wrong with SS. But if you have no idea what SS is, or just resort to strawmen when you don't like something, you fail to make your point and you make people think there aren't legitimate criticisms to be made.
Anthony Martinez
Rippetoe litteraly said that SS should be ran for a year. And yes it's literally 3 exercises. Chin ups only replace deadlifts once you can't recover from them properly.
Liam Jackson
Big moves should be core workout even after starting period.
Josiah Bell
Where and when did he say a whole year?
Also, power cleans replace deadlifts. Later, rows and chins are added and four exerciaes are done on many days.
Brody Morris
I already had that body type before start lifting
Nolan Turner
Where did you even read it? Did you seriously buy all of his books?
Dominic Rodriguez
I ran SS and got to (rep, not maxes) 135 OHP, 295 Squat, 355 Deadlift, and 200 Bench. Just buy micro plates and eat a lot.
Tbh just do any LP and be consistent. Anyone who complains about SS hasn’t done it right. It’s so simple.
Carter Martinez
What about 5/3/1 x3 a week? With every time doing either bp+squat or dL+ohp, followed by 100-150 reps of anything that may help. Weighted dips, chins, leg press, pendlay rows, etc, etc.
I have had some pretty fine results.
What does Jow Forums think?
Asher Nelson
This is my green man after doing this for three months. Did SS for a year prior to that
>1/2
Ayden Edwards
2/2
Logan Lee
>checked
did SS just went from meme to best workout?
Julian Cooper
Post your body before and after the first 3 months, if your training regimen was so great.
Bentley Robinson
5/3/1 is fucking terrible. All it will do is cause you to peak because the lowering volume allows you to shed fatigue and display more strength. It effectively detrains you. It’s basically only good for the run-up to a competition.
Xavier Ward
>fatasses doing a strength program without changing their intake or doing secondary exercises
>wonder why they look like shit
Parker Allen
Same thing happens to skellies who just slightly up their calories.
Jose Russell
You only need to read part of one book, or even watch a single video or read a single article, to know that Rip doesn’t suggest doing it for more than a few months. It boggles my mind that faggots like OP go to such lengths to argue against something no one actually believes.
Logan Phillips
Post body.
