The only reason I lift is to look good. I don't care about strength, ony aesthetics and look.
I want the body pic related, this is my workout routine every day:
Everyday after I wake up and before I go to bed - 2 minute rest between
20 bicycle crunches
20 spiderman planks
20 Press Ups
20 dips
Exercises for the middle of the day - 5 minute rest between - 50lbs barbell
10 bench presses
10 bicep curls
10 deadlifts
10 squats
Are squats and deadlifts actually necessary? What is the best routine for a body like pic related?

nice blog post

It's fine that you have your personal goals but where in the holy fuck did you get that routine from?
Sticky. You'll get no where with that faggy bodyweight routine. Go back to reddit.
2/10 troll thread for making me reply.
you have to get to the point where you enjoy lifting to get any results, that routine is shit, and yes squats and deadlifts are 2 of the 3 best excercises you can possibly do.
You're doing it wrong. Lift for strength and the looking good part will come.
>50 pound deadlifts
You need mass to look good, you need to lift heavy things to get mass.
>>35285235
that fucking routine holy shit hahahahha

If you're natural, focus on strength and looks will follow. All that hypertrophy, brosplit mumbo jumbo only really works if you're on roids.
Do a beginners strength routine like linear progression. When your strength gets strong enough (usually after a couple of months), move on to a mid strength routine like the texas method.
To answer your question, yes, squats and deadlifts are absolutely necessary.
>>35285587
Thanks man
>>35285587
>do a strength program if you are training for looks
When will this meme end
>>35285600
You'll spend a great deal of time trying to get the form down though, especially because bench, squat and deadlift have to be quite technical. Just be wary of this and don't lose hope. Also, diet is just as important.
>>35285607
>He thinks muscles grow without you getting stronger
Good job on proving you're a DYEL you stupid faggot. Stick to your 3x8 bench flies while you cry about why you're not making enough gains. If there's one thing all muscular people have in common is that they're all strong.
>>35285681
Why would a program for strength be more optimal for size gains than a program for size?
>>35285822
Because OP isn't on roids and the best way to make size gains for a natty is to get stronger you dense fuck. Brosplits is literally a meme endorsed by big named steroid users.
>>35285587
Dont do it OP. Starting Strength is a troll routine. Just google "starting strength results"
>>35285877
If you read my post, you'll see i never even mention starting strength. Learn to fucking read.
>parroting the strength routine is mandatory for every single person meme
I thought we were past this?

Oh how it must feel to be a DYEL
All these faggots hating on strength probably look like shit. Doesn't matter whether you do a bodybuilding routine or a powerlifting routine, or a hybrid of both, you can't expect to look good if you can lift fuck all.
>>35285235
You need volume m8
>>35285235
Strength IS aesthetics newfriend.
Take our advice and read the sticky, you won't be disappointed unless you don't want to do hard work, in which cause you aren't fit to live
>>35285552
Just came here to laugh at you desu family
>>35285235
Don't listen to these faggots. Just follow this advice
>>35286550
kek
>>35285235
nice bait bruh
Powerbuilding you faggots. Heavy compounds with low reps followed by isolations. Simple. You will grow like a motherfucker
Am sure you look phenomenal,OP.Even the guy in your pic does serious lifting at least 3x a week.You underestimate what it takes to build that.
>>35286703
Hold up. What about compounds with high reps and low weight and then isolations with low reps and high weight? MUSCLE CONFUSION
>>35285235
It's total shit
You need to do SS (Starting Strength)[1] until you cannot progress anymore (after deloading like two-three times).
A lot of people here will say that SS[1] is a meme, but them saying that is a meme. The reason you do SS[1] is so that your nervous system gets acclimated to signalling your muscles to turn on. Since you probably don't have to chase and kill animals all day for your food your nervous system isn't yet acclimated to signalling your muscles to the best of their ability.
Once you're done with SS[1], start up either side (really doesn't matter in the end) of pic related. Please note that your should be doing cardio on your off-days (30 minutes of heavy cardio on the elliptical is perfect).
The body you posted in the OP is some muscle with a very low bodyfat percentage, it will probably take around 1--1.5 years to get it.
Did I mention that diet is essential? If you really are serious about this (which it doesn't seem like you are), calculate your TDEE[2] and add 500 to it. The number that you get is your daily caloric intake. Recalculate this value every time you gain 5 pounds.
Diet:
- 40% of daily caloric intake comes from turkey breast.
- 30% of daily caloric intake comes from almonds.
- 20% of daily caloric intake comes from whole-grain whole-wheat bread (for the turkey sandwiches).
- 5% of daily caloric intake comes from carrots.
- 5% of daily caloric intake comes from brocolli.

Wow, that is a terrible guide.
>>35285235
It took a lot to look like this. This isn't a jogger. People like this look much bigger in person and the roided out freaks look ridiculous in person.
