>>27740335
I start at 11 PM and usually get done around 12:30-12:45 AM
>>27740335
I did/do occasionally. About an hour each time, but less once I've gotten into the rhythm over a few weeks.
7 exercises, 5 sets of 5 reps for each exercise. 3 times a week.
My routine takes about an hour.

About an hour and a half.
>>27740466
You did good faaamm
>>27740335

Worked out every other day, now it's every day alternating between chest arm and leg. I do 3 sets 10 reps of 6 exercises it usually takes me 30 minutes because I don't rest between them. I weigh 180
>>27740422
That's an awesome bench and a shitty DL ratio. But getting either in 8 months is awesome anon. And only being 160 is amazing.
Thumbs up.
>>27740618
youre supposed to do ppl 6 times a week
>>27740688
I'm 5'5 so technically I'm like obese but I just look kind of bearmode. Like a tiny bear
Idk what happened to my bench but it's really strong compared to my other lifts
>>27740791
>>I'm 5'5
my deepest condolences.
>>27740635
I just cant stop feeling today.
>>27740807
Thank you sirr
Session A
5x5 deadlift
5x5 bent-over row
5x5 overhead press
Session B
5x5 bench press
5x5 barbell squat
5x5 power cleans
Is this decent?
>>27740847
That's a very respectable workout regiment. Gotta admire a man who does compound exercises and not just focus on vanity
I usually work out for around an hour.
Bench: 300
Squat: 460
Deadlift: 420
idk why my deadlift is lagging behind so hard desu. I recently changed to another lifting program that I've been pretty happy with so far so hopefully I can gain some ground.
>>27740847
Looks like you took SS and decided to edit it without knowing what the fuck you are actually doing.
>>27740847
It's pretty much the base for any good lifting routine if you want to get big
I recommend ppl tho
I'm >>27740422
It's what I do
>>27740887
looks like some bastard child of SS and SL to me
>5x5 deadlift
TOP FUCKING KEK GOOD LUCK WITH THAT LAD
i try to get in 100 push ups a day with some cardio and crunches for abs/back. I'm a skinny nerd so any muscle i get all shows
>>27740879
Do you use straps? If not it's probably your grip.
>>27740887
Yup.
>>27740875
>>27740891
>>27740905
Could you suggest some alterations to it?
>>27740905
Yeah that amused the fuck out of me as well, clearly a beginner but wants to do 5x5 DL after all those other compounds. How much longer until anon reaches snap city?
Also where the fuck are the pullups/chinups.
>>27740919
lol
>>27740924
>I recommend ppl tho
>>27740925
I don't have a pullup bar.
I recently realised that I'm not lifting with enough weight and that's why I'm able to do deadlifts so easy.
>>27740934
I don't want to change to a whole new system. Also I don't have all the equipment.
>>27740949
>I don't have a pullup bar.
>I recently realised that I'm not lifting with enough weight and that's why I'm able to do deadlifts so easy.
What's a tree?
What's a playground?
What's a 10 dollar pull up bar you hook onto the door?
Also you do DL last, you won't last long and it wont be long until you snap your back.
>>27740959
I'll just do them last and so less of them.
Just 2x5?
I suppose I could look into buying a pullup bar.
No trees here.
>>27740983
Do 1x5 you tard.
>>27740986
Is that really enough?
I must not be using much weight at all.
>>27740994
It's enough FOR YOU, you are clearly a beginner and working on your strength. Don't be a fucking retard and do 2-5 sets of fucking DL. You will just hurt yourself especially when you go up in the weights.
>>27740994
You're not. When you deadlift heavy it's exhausting as shit and very difficult to recover from. Few beginner strength training programs recommend more than one set of heavy deadlifts.
>>27741021
>>27741023
ok good
I was lifting 33lb before. Should I increase to 50lb for all exercises?
>>27741037
Wow, 14kg DL???
I say go for it, but be careful, watch your form, and see if you are able to handle the weight. When it starts getting quite heavy only go up in very small increments each week (1-2kg).
>just started the 5x5 program.
>neat little phone app for it
>been comfy mode for a year
>breaking back into lifting
>wut dead lift is only 1x5?
>fuck that, go for second set
>body says no after 1.5 rep
>I'm so confused
>>27740335
3x peer week for 30-45 minutes max
deadlift / pull ups
squat / power clean
press / curl
that's it really.
the only equipment i have is weights and a bar. i've never seen a gym from the inside and the only training lessons i had were from ripp. i'm still checking my form on webcam every now and then.
i've been doing this for about a year and a half and my weight went up from 60kg to 85kg. my stats arent that impressive, but i don't get sick anymore, look better and my depression is gone.
>>27741046
Thanks. Getting fit not a big deal for me but i need something to do because no job and it's dangerous where i live.
If you have any other suggestions i appreciate it. I do 3 days a week. Should I do light cardio on rest days?
>>27741094
Don't do cardio at all, just work on your strength gains.
>>27741093
What kinda curls you do?
>>27741094
eat big
4 scoops minimum cmon
>>27741111
>3x8 50kg barbell curls
in the last set i try to do as many as i can.
>>27741128
>not having at least 5 scoops of 5150 to confuse the body
Should I work on my cardio before I try for gains? I used to be aesthetic as fuck but now I feel like a potato chip. It doesn't help that I'm baby faved
>>27740847
haha where's the curls f.am?
>speak with the majority of 40+ men lifting at the gym
>they all say they don't deadlift after fucking their backs up
>most of them are very strong, and have great form and routines otherwise
deadlifting is a meme lift
>>27741251
I add curls and pulls ups but i still need to get pull up bar. It's cheap.
>>27740335
Why would I lift im already an alpha male thanks to my amazing testosterone doses
>>27741287
The guys on youtube said is important to do deadlifts.
>>27741301
People who aren't as handsome need to increase their sexual market value by getting fit.
Also some places you need to be strong so people don't fight you.
>>27740791
>Like a tiny bear
Just joined the gym.
Got free hour with PT for joining.
Dude said to do 5 sets of 10 deadlifts with 20kg hand-weights.
Is this retarded?
I work manual labour, so I'm far from weak or fat, but yall got me worried.
>>27740335
totally bro
>>27741332
>hand-weights.
>dl
>>27741336
dude called it a deadlift.
is that not a deadlift?
>>27741350
The only people i see using dumbbells to DL/stiff legged are women.
Use a damn bar.
>>27741363
I really, really don't care about whether or not I look like a woman.
What would be the advantages of using a bar?
>>27741370
Because dumbbell basically turns it more into a squat, you also have weight to worry about as well and cant lift as heavy as you would with the actual bar or go as high.
Using dumbbells is beyond moronic when you have the conventional method.
>>27741363
Also it's Kattlebells, but I don't suppose that makes a difference?
>>27741386

>>27740335
I usually train for two or three and a half hours. Six days a week.

>>27740847
I'll assume you're running this program thrice weekly.
5x5 deadlift is too difficult to recover from 1.5 times a week, even once a week is pushing it. I would suggest warming up to 1x5.
Don't be afraid to add some accessory work, particularly some tricep work (close grip bench/ tricep dips) when your push exercises start to stall.
Also consider reducing volume on powercleans if you find it to difficult to recover from.
Other than that you've got a pretty well rounded and thought-out routine anon
I don't lift weights. I do bjj twice a week and Muay Thai about twice a month. I'm decent at bjj so I look forward to that where as Muay Thai I suck balls.
I have a pretty shitty body. Small pecs, no abs but v line, big shoulders. Like I have a good base from bjj but I look kinda scrawny. I mean I guess I am kinda scrawny.
Something about gyms and their contracts put me off from there. I hate the idea of being locked in for a year. Any normal person not on fit would think I look fine. They would think aushwitz mode tho.
>>27741411
Thanks. like this person said >>27740887 I just fucked with the ss setup a bit.
>>27741467
Yeah, just stick with a proven routine for at least a couple of months. After that you'll have enough knowledge to write a decent program for your circumstances
Almost always under 1 hour, no matter the workout.
>>27740422
estatting--the post
>>27742504
The deadlift is weak for 8 months of lifting, most people should get to 3 plates by 3-4 months
About an hour and a half.
Then I go for a 30 minute run after
about 2-3 hours normally. depends on how long squats take mainly.
>>27742504
it really, really, isn't
I did sl before but injured my shoulder so i can't do squats. Now i do 3x10:
A
Bench, oh press, dips
Farmers walk
B
Dl(1x5), bo row, chins, sit-ups
>80kg strict press
>Can only bench 100kg
What is this meme magic
>>27743363
>strict
it's probably not
