Doing SS and then transitioning will get you to where you want to be faster than just splitting.

And you're never too far into splitting to realize you fucked up and should SS

Don't inure yourself trying to pull weight that faggot anons say is easy.

ss is the most retarded program. why would you want to look like a novice powerlifter? i'd rather look like a novice bodybuilder any day.

>>37927926
Did the same thing. Can confirm strength is not the best, but normies think I'm shredded when at the track doing HIIT.
Then again, strength isn't a goal of mine, so why do SS?

What makes you say this?
>>
>>37928168
5'11 170 pounds
For 5x5:
210 bench
325 diddly (1x5)
215 squat
135 Press
Been lifting for a solid 6 months with proper diet and sleep. I had lifted for 6 months prior, but my diet and sleep were absolute shit.
The squat is because of a torn sartorius from XC and squatting is just now not painful.

Because I was running at the track like I usually do because it's the only time I'm able to. There's a class at the time (my uni has gym class kek), and I've heard multiple normies say, "that kid is shredded, etc." It's just stuff I hear whenever I'm running shirtless like some tool or at the pool.
I wasn't even that big or had anything impressive. It doesn't take much for normies.
>pic related is me at the time
I don't have many progress pictures and this is the best I have.

>>37928214
Stronger version of me and I'm doing SS but really only consistently for the past month or so. I've lifted in the past though.

6'0 170 pounds (bulking to 180 for now)
Bench 187.5 x 3x 5
Deadlift 270 x 1 x 5
High Bar Squat 177.5 x 3 x 5
The Press 115 x 3 x 3

That was my dorm. I think I used that microwave once. I don't really care what anyone thinks, but if I had to, I would care more about normies' standards than /fit/'s. But that's just me.

Running a successful split relies on a body thats already accustomed to all the basic things SS and other 5x5's supply. You can't target to enhance a specific muscle group that isn't even decently developed.
