I just turned 18 and I've decided to stop fucking around. I've been running a shitty bro split for 2.5 months and my lifts are (all 5x5) -
170 DL
180 Squat
135 Bench
130 Row
90 OHP
Is SL 5x5 a meme? I'm looking for a program that will allow me to build a base good enough to start lifting seriously. Would a basic PPL work fine, with progressive overload? Srs
5x5 is fine, got me this:
75 bench to 155 bench
95 squat to 295 squat
95 deadlift to 255 deadlift
65 ohp to 115 ohp
75 row to 115 row
that's about 6 months progress, also lost 62 pounds.
5x5 SL isn't a meme, you're just a faggot who doesnt wanna work hard.

SL is not a meme if you move on once you start to stall hard, then move to a PPL program.

It's just a question faggot, thanks though appreciate the response
Looks like I'm starting SL, it's telling me to start way lower than I can do though. Should I stick with that or lift what I currently lift?

i went in the first day and just started with what i thought i could do, i spent the 10 bucks to get the accessory lifts as well on the app.
definitely go in there and do what you think is reasonable to start with. desu i'd start lower than what you think you can do, focus on form, watch some videos and then progress from there.
this way you'll get stronger and won't get injured. good luck, we're all gonna make it.

recipe for chicken?

>that deadlift
What the fuck are you doing, m8?
Don't do SL, and don't start with the bar.
Do SS. If you're scared of power cleans then do Snatch Grip DLs.

Yea it is, here's the recipe I used -http://natashaskitchen.com/2014/12/11/sweet-and-sour-chicken-recipe/
Not very healthy i think but tastes fucking good
>>36862161
I obsessed over my deadlift form and kept deloading like a pussy just to get form down

Why SS over SL?
