So I told anon to squat every workout. he actually did it the absolute madman hahahahahahaha!
I started squat everyday and my 1rm went from 430 to 480 in three weeks.
I see nothing wrong with squatting everyday.

What happens if you actually do this?
>>36830430
My upper body is pretty equal to my lower body famalam.
>>36830396
Rippitoe is a god tier troll
There is a hint of logic to this. I started off squatting 3x a week with stronglifts and dramatically improived leg stregth and size quickly.
However, once I started lifting heavy weight for my size, I felt lifting 3x a week was actually detrimental to growth. Twice a week, once and the start and once at the end of the week is probably best, anymore and yu dont have enough time to recover.

>Strong Lifts
Found the problem brother
Do 3x5 like a normal human being
>>36830396
Joke's on you, I'm doing PNP1 and I squat, bench and deadlift erryday.

I don't have a time stamp but here's a pic of me from yesterday if this helps. I'm on my phone.
Most personal trainers are retarded. They have their clients in there doing meme crossfit workouts, stepping on boxes, doing squats with a fixed bar, doing retarded shit like bench press but only going down with one arm, then switching.
If you want to get better at the big three you have to do them as often as you can.
How Mark finagled a way to associate himself with the big three as being "his" program is beyond me.
>forearms baloon out past upper arm
>no upper body to speak of
Senpai...
I fell for the swuay every day meme when I first came here, lifted for a year and made massive leg and ass gains but little everywhere else. My bench was shit and one female friend said since I took up lifting I went from a being a guy who was cute in a super skinny way to having hips and ass like a woman.
Because I also fell for the >squats and deads work abs meme, I also developed back pain from huge imbalances from a weak as fuck core.
Then I stopped lifting for 6 months due to uni, took up boxing training in that time (lots of chest, shoulders, core and cardio) before retuning to lifting on a PPLPPLx routine.
Now I'm more proportionate, my upper body doesn't suck so much, I don't have birthing hups anymore and I'm maybe gonna make it.

Are you trying to reply to me >>36832651 ? Or are you just contributing.
>>36832739
>I also fell for the >squats and deads work abs meme
even if deadlifts and squats do work the core, it doesn't mean they'll work it without you having to do anything to make sure they're activated - you still have to make sure the muscles are activated and included in the lift, if it's inactive then no amount of added weight will affect it.
>>36832739
nice, i had similar experiences, i mean, i never did SS, but in fact my routine was even harder, i used to squat and deadlift on every workout
i made a lot of gains everywhere, but yeah, my quads were quite sick and weren't really necessary, it was nothing but a problem
oh, and i fell for this squats/dl working for a core meme as well. it was bullshit and now we both know that.
So what point are you guys drying to argue against SS? He has you doing bench and OHP on top of it, plus chinups. What more do you want or do you think should be added?
>>36832700
>bench press but only going down with one arm, then switching
Did ICF. I was promised t Rex legs fit. Where are they?
I swear to God my fucking quads are broken as fuck and refuse to grow. I look like a small child below the waist.
>implying I give any fucks
HA HA HA HE HE HE
>>36832739
>forearms baloon out past upper arm
it's pretty clear to me that the upper arms are bigger fampai. He's wearing black, the right arm is slightly hidden behind his chest, both arms are obscured by his backpack straps, but if you look at the left arm it's pretty clear that his upper arm size is fine, just look a little odd in this photo.

>retards complaining that they do not get very aesthetic from a strength focused program
>retards not adding accessory work as the book tells you to, like chin ups, curls, dips, lying triceps pushdown and barbell rows
>retards not taking into account their current weight and following the gomad tip (which is aimed only to hungry skelletons)
>retards thinking strength focused lifts will not give you hypertrophy and aesthetics
Every SS thread ever.

>Implying people read the book instead of googling the routine and leaving it at that
>>36833180
Don't whinge about your legs. I'd kill for your abs.
>>36832651
where are your delts anon?
>>36830581
What was heavy for your size? 2pl8, 3pl8?
>>36830581
That is exactly what the SL instructions tell you will happen
>>36833180
Eat more, possibly add in some leg extensions or try front squatting instead of backsquatting one lifting day.
>>36830434
It will be extremely painful
>>36833180
Weight and height? This is my goal body.
>>36833824

>>36834289

>>36834406
For you.
>>36834052
under my shirt, family. it's a big shirt.
>>36832739
>squats and deads working core is a meme
i squatted 3 times a week, and fucked my knee up
>>36834297
Thanks buddy.
5'9, 162lbs
>>36832864
So it's like the almonds thing?
Shit I never activate my chest when bench pressing, I guess my tris do 75% of the work after all
>>36833824
>Reading a book that spends 20 pages explaining form
Ha ha
no
>>36832651
>480
yea ok
>>36836555
http://youtu.be/UpldNRcBr5E Here's 460 a week before I got 480 if it makes it anymore believable.
I only squat once a week because I already have big legs & thighs
>>36836573
good shit lad
>>36836682
Thanks friendo.
>>36836573
Holy shit dude you make it look so easy. Great form. I'm this guy
>>36833180
And I can only squat like 165 lbs, I did 2pl8 but realized I wasn't going full depth like you so I dropped way down until I could pause at the bottom. I feel like I wasted months on half rep bullshit that didn't help me get stronger and just made me feel like I was stronger than I am. What other exercises do you recommend for leg day?
>>36832651
You're cute no homo

Lmao they know it's shit but this is to hide the fact that their clients are weak. They don't like to be exposed. You see it in crossfit, they'll do the most obscure exercises with huge 10lb plates to hide the fact that they squat 1pl8.
