Hello /fit/
I want to mini bear mode (I'm only 5ft 6, 140lbs). I've decided to dedicate myself to this, I've made meals for the next 5 days (2800cals a day. Will up it if I'm not gaining weight but it looks way more than I normally eat). But, I really don't know what type of lifting will get my bear mode physique. I was thinking SL5X5 as it's all compounds but from what I've read, it has a bad rep. So should I do a hypertrophy routine instead?
Thanks fit.
(ps. Yes, I am a Manlet. Just trying to make the best of what I have)

just eat, once you have gained the weight we will give you a good routine

mini bear mode... lol thats cute. You don't have to take the manlet meme too seriously. Honestly i'm at bear mode and at our height its not too worth it. You're better off just cutting.

My upper body isn't very built though :-(

push ups

So Koala mode?
Teddy mode?

I have a grade 2 shoulder separation I did in June that STILL gives me a lot of issues. Press ups feels like one of the worst exercises for my shoulder. I can bench press but nothing over 40kg.

Koala mode sounds like it. Thanks anon.

OP why do you have to go out of the way to point out your height? Posting your weight (which would've been a dead give away to your height) is irrelevant. Shoulda just said you were lookin for some bear mode. If you make yourself constantly conscious of your insecurities you're gonna have a bad time.

Hey, thanks for your concern anon. Not really an insecurity of none so much as wherever in the past I've made a thread, I've been asked height and weight, and then mocked. Just gets it out of the way.
>>35302520
don't worry lol. I made a thread once where I stated my height and unless you make a big deal out of it no one will care. Yeah sure you get people who will try to bring you down but only because the whole point of the meme is to try and make you insecure. Unless you're a legit midget, no one cares about your height I promise. If you look good you will get girls regardless. Just a fellow manlet helping a manlet out, I've become very comfortable in my skin so just makin sure you OK Op. Good luck bro

>mini bear mode
thanks for the keks lad
I personally think doing a flat 5x5 for compounds is a bit too much volume for linear progression.
Anyways the road to bear mode regardless of height is to eat big and lift big without worrying too much about body fat percentages. SL5x5 is a good program if you ramp the 5x5.

You are going to look even shorter in bear mode senpai.
Just go Bruce Lee mode.
Proportions heavily matter.
