My fucking squat keeps stalling at 275. I thought you said SS or SL can get me to 3pl8 in just a few months
not if you're weak lol
No that's not true, that's only possible if you go permabulk at 1000 cal surplus or are already fat or strong
Could be time to switch to an intermediate routine.
Or just eat more/sleep more.
Getting that far on SS before stalling is bretty impressive, fampai
Switch to Texas Method
Eat right. Sleep more. Work on flexibility. Download for a bit and work on form. Figure out if anything is causing you undue stress and interfering with your workouts.
But mostly don't worry about it. If you plateau for weeks or even months then yeah probably consider switching to 3x3 or some other program but until then just keep at it.

>I want to get to 3pl8 as fast as possible!
>I know, I'll progress the weight twice as fast, that'll totally work!
That's what most of you guys do. You try to progress things too quickly, thinking your noob gains are real gains, and that you can keep progressing that quickly. You can't. If you're adding 5% (or more) to the bar more often than every 4th workout, then you're asking to stall out. Play the long game. Or do you really want to be one of those guys who gets sick or hurt, has to take a week off, to find you've lost almost ALL of your so-called 'gains'?
I'm back down to 1pl8 to fix my form. Maybe I will get squat shoes eventually.
I think you shouldn't place so much value on high numbers for your squat. That shit's for powerlifters. Also, you will get injured if your form isn't perfect.
