Why is this 5x5 strength program shit shilled everywhere? Look at the bug guys in the gym. Mkst of the dont even do compound lifts besides bench. Why is this shit memed so hard?
meanwhile skinny guys with good facial aesthetics have better looking gfs
Ian Davis
Noodle arm bitch boys are jealous and try desperately to convince you that arms and other alpha muscles aren't "functional." If these worthless noodle armed faggots can even get 1 inch off of your arms they're happy, like some jealous tit-less bitch trying to convince a big breasted beauty to get a reduction and shave her head bald. It's absolutely pathetic.
Samuel Mitchell
Is an ugly girl who is great in every other way still ugly? Her offspring will have less of a chance to survive because they are not good looking. But there are plenty of good girls who are not beautiful. :(
My heart bleeds for them.

What the fuck is SL? What the fuck is ppl? Jow Forums is that way > SAGE THIS SHIT, NIGGER

Bodybuilding != weightlifting
If you lift to look like a gay porn actor, bro routines are your friend.
Ascended lifters will lift heavy weights for the sake of lifting heavier weights. This is the path of selfless action, which does not brings you pussy but it brings you spiritual enlightenment (read the gita).
Brayden Evans
Wrong board faggot
Matthew Perez
Yeah, or you could just meditate rather than wasting £100 a month on supplements stinking up the place with your protein farts

Drop-sets are the way to go Do 2 of them for each muscle

I do ICF SL and run about 3 miles on off days and have pretty good results.
Robert Foster
Lmao anything related to exercise triggers all the fat losers here. It’s funny as fuck.
Jacob White
You can be fat af and lift.
Jaxon Evans
SL and all that other stuff without isolation is fucking shit 95% of jacked guys are doing 3/4 day splits, while people on those strength programms look like shit
Joseph Martin
Either you look like shit and your strong. You look great and you're not strong. Or you get on test and you do both.
You’re a fucking idiot. SL does exactly what it was designed to do, and did for you. That is, take an untrained person to beginning lifter status. However, since your dumbass didn’t learn anything about lifting during those months of easy gains and basic techniques, you’re still a useless shit with no more knowledge than you started out with. Goddamn nigger.
Isaac Watson
Worked for me. Putting up intermediate numbers after 3 months, and looking nice according to my wife. Maybe it's you, or maybe the "big guys at the gym" are juice heads.
William Peterson
I did SL 5x5 until I could do 1/2/3/4. By the time I could 3/4 my OHP and Bench was over that though. Then switched to PHUL and still do compounds. I think they're fun as fuck and always challenging to do when you have to apply max effort, sometimes even feels like an adrenaline kick. What I do think is boring is pumping my biceps and chest for 1 hour, but I still do that to look good.
Sebastian Morris
I’m glad tall ppl die earlier
Tyler Torres
Works out for one month and wonders why he isn't ripped
Michael Davis
the idea behind a strength routine is that you get strong, then switch to a bodybuilding split routine so that you're moving around a decent amount of weight which equals more growth. not much growth if you're moving around light weight because you never got strong before switching to a hypertrophy routine.
Jaxson Bailey
Agreed, the worst of traits are often times found in beautiful women, they never need to learn and therefore are little more than children.
The best wives are likely the ugliest of women and yet nobody will ever give them a chance.
Isaac Stewart
When did I stumble into Jow Forums?
Henry Baker
I thought Jow Forums crossposters on Jow Forums were annoying.

I'm a big roided up muscular cunt and my girl is a beautiful pure white redhead celt. Why you skinny cunts so mad about it ? I'm here preserving the white race, whilst you're being a skinny virgin fag.

Doing a strength routine and expecting bodybuilding results? Are you fucking retarded?
Gabriel Stewart

Insecure manlet confirmed
Kevin Powell
>SL PPL is the best imo 2x a week and feels great to do it also
Dominic Peterson
Also I feel like it's better doing pplpplx or just a simple bro split than the same low rep compounds. Way more variety for a nice burning pump or to confuse the muscles. And dont tell me you're doing anything besides glutes and calves on leg day, anything else is a waste of lean muscle mass. Detailed Workout plans are only made for autists (and pros) anyway
Elijah Clark
How many kids do you have?

Nice work.
Jaxon Sanders
SL is good for beginners because of how simple the routine is to follow. Nothing wrong with doing it first until you get bored and moving on/modifying it.
Hunter Anderson
How much you bench roid faggot? Fucking manlets.
Aaron Bennett
More than you, natty cuck
Ian Ward
You're probably doing 3x the volume and higher frequency, which is why you look better. Some of it is edema because your muscles never fully recover and have a perma-pump. Shit like 5x5 is for beginners to build a strength base, not for looking swole.
Angel Rogers
It's good to get a strength base and to learn form on the basic compound lifts.
I think building up strength first makes gaining muscle with hypertrophy more efficient later.
Gavin Brown
You don't look good if you're weak. Period.
Brayden Wright
This. Its good for new lifters, it will help you build your natural base and strength, before you then later start adding in isolation exercises, or strongman training or powerlifting etc depending on what road you want to go down .
Jace Robinson
Not an answer roid monkey. This sort of evading makes me think you're one of those 2pl8 benchers that thinks they are huge, and walks around in a stringer.
Christopher Turner
If you’re starting out, do SL You eventually need to get off SL or you will just have thicccc legs and T. rex arms
Going off SL won’t return you to the husk of a man you once were, it’s ok to do different things. At the end of the day, it feels good to be able to deadlift and squat chicks, but you want them to cream themselves when they look at your arms, too, or you’re just going to be the strongest incel around
Isaac Perez
go back to Jow Forums although many of us lurk both
Nicholas Roberts
Please guys what is PPL?
Isaac Howard
Push Pull Legs
Logan Hernandez
Train muay thai, boxing or bjj and do body weight exercises. Youll get solid thick and tight
Sebastian Morgan
Is this new? I Haven't heard of it. Link for fat guy who wants to breed someday?
Camden Kelly
Not trolling but SL and SS are for the base of the base.
If you've even lifted over 10kg in your life before.... it is not for you laddo
Nolan Richardson
SS can get you to a 140kg x5 squat easy. I'd recommend everyone try SS/SL with a few accessories for their first 2 or 3 months lifting.
Wyatt James
you guys always seem like you're a weird color? can you tell me why that's a thing?
Bentley Kelly
>no money. BRUH a billionaire could peel anyone's girl 8n 15 seconds
Michael Jenkins
Not new, its as basic as it can get, routine is Push) You push stuff away from your body Pull) You pull stuff towards your body Legs) Squats and every Machine in the gym that hits your ass. Also Abs and forearms if you feel lucky. x) Rest day People either do pplxpplx or pplpplx If you're fat as fuck you should also consider counting calories.
Sebastian Collins
If you're a fat guy no fucking gym will help you. Start by eating less. Look in to TDEE and Calories, lift to not look like avocado skinyfat
Gavin Clark
You shouldn't "consider" it, you should 200% count calories when overweight
Ayden Hughes
I recommend cycling. I ride my bike 7-20 miles per day and it's refreshing as hell. put on a podcast and just pedal. comfy bliss...
Connor Hall
They don't do compound and their legs are tiny. SL 5x5 is great for someone that has never touched a barbell to get comfortable with the gym. Compounds are better than isolations. That said, frequency greater than 2x week isn't that much better than just 2x week, exercise variation is good. In short it's good for the first 3-6 months of a gym noob, and there's nothing fundamentally wrong with it.
Also your big guys at the gym are still doing compounds like lat pulldowns, dips, and leg press.
Julian Gonzalez
cycling is good for this too.
Levi Morgan
SL 5x5 strengthened my back and helped me with a ton of pain issues related to my weakened, cube-life created core. I overdid it though and lost the will to go to the gym for months. Paying the price now getting back in. I still recommend it.
Brayden Barnes
Because even though it's pretty well established that low reps suck for hypertrophy (except perhaps when pyramiding), you still get these fucking morons designing such programs and thinking they're so edgy and contrarian. These are the Jason Blaha kind of ego-lifting faggots who think deadlifting a car to change a flat is the meaning of life and that it doesn't matter if aesthetically you look indistinguishable from some diabetic gulping down three Big Macs at Maccas.
Alexander Sullivan
I'm 6'6 and I'm glad I won't live to long. I've worked in the nursing homes and hospitals. Last thing I want to be is a patient in my own country. Socialism and "FREE™" healthcare is bad.
Ayden Roberts
hey incel
Owen Walker
If you're fat step 1 is counting every single calorie. As miniscule as it seems. Many women cycle and then reward themselves with a bar of chocolate and a few snacks while drinking 2l of coke to quench their thirst. They for some reason don't see results, get frustrated and stop working out altogether. If you know what you're doing you're not getting frustrated. If your determination and motivation to lose weight is lost to frustration you also lost yourself.
Jaxson Davis
This isnt politics. Take this gay shit to fit.
Michael Bennett
Haha, nursing homes in America are almost like prisions.
Ian Jackson
100 situps 100 push ups 100 squats run 10km a day. every day no matter what. no exceptions ever. never use your air conditioning or heater ever.
I was 198cm tall at 120kg about 6 months ago and have been there most my life. Now I am down to 105kg and I've also cut all empty carbs. Just by stopping drinking sugar, eating proper dinner meals and intermittent fasting daily with 16:8 I've lost 15kg in 6 months. Slow, but steady and it's a good feeling when my belt buckle has trouble keeping my pants up. If only I could get my ass to the gym I'll be golden. But so far it's a mendokse. All I do now is walk about 10k steps on my days off. I do this at night so I powerwalk most of my time. Being a nightshift worker is hell. I either have to exercise after 10 hour nightshift or wake up early to workout before 10 hour shift.
Juan Reed
They get better food in prison than nursing homes here. I'm sure you've seen how Breivik is doing in jail.
Jayden Richardson
Lad you’ll just be in a nursing home sooner from your crippling back and hip problems lol
Eli Hall
>numbers go up but still look like shit You fucking idiot, 5x5 is for building strength. Not for pumping up your muscles to show off to your other homo bros who spend all day looking at half naked men.
If you are similar in nature to a women and use the gym as a method to increase sexual appeal, then focus on isolation exercises. If you use the gym to increase functional strength or simply want to be healthy (for those who lack physical exercise in work), then compound exercises are perfect.
>Idolising a homosexual even unironically I feel bad for any children you might have
Nolan Powell
Good job. I wasn't saying cycling, walking (or any cardio for that matter) is bad. But it might be in vain if you don't take care of your diet. Counting calories is the easiest way to never fool yourself and guarantee profit. That's why i always reccomend it.
Oliver Harris
Yeah, and it's nicer than our nursing homes here by a long shot. They are horrible, horrible places.
Yea we are on Jow Forums, a place where degenerate faggots are disliked. The rest of the site can enjoy "ironically" watching men suck each others cocks, but here on Jow Forums we consider ironically being a faggot as just being a fucking faggot.
You are definitely one of those fat blobs who think that you’re ripped lmao
Charles Parker
Quick post your gayns
Leo Sullivan
what does /v/ has to do with anything lmao havent been there in ages aniki isn't /v/ shit
Mason Lewis
Only /v/ niggers or reddit cancer talk or care about the degenerate faggot. Regardless of if your from /v/ or not, you need to fuck off to wherever the fuck you came from because you certainly are not Jow Forums.
Colton Roberts
You sound like a fatass with shitty form and no gains. If you actually had some discipline you could become a chiseled Aryan ubermensch. It's not selfless to quarter rep a set, it's ego lifting , drop the weight, drop the ego, fatass
>all boards share the same culture >"am I fitting in yet guys?" You have to go back lad, no one here on Jow Forums enjoys "ironically" watching homosexual porn. Reddit, /v/, /tv/, /a/, etc I really don't care where your from but you need to go back.
big muscle =/= quality muscle Yeah get nice and swole bro.
