So I'm confident most of Veeky Forums is shitposting and memes, and I've gotten back into lifting recently and chose the 5x5 Stronglifts routine as my go-to.
A lot of people say just do SS but considering Stronglifts backs off to 3x5 once the weight goes up enough, why not do 2 extra sets?
Anyhow, the questions I'm here to ask are:
1) How much weight do I add to each exercise every session? 2) What should my warm-up sets look like? 3) What is the best routine after to switch to for a natural lifter after hitting 1/2/3/4?
>considering Stronglifts backs off to 3x5 once the weight goes up enough Wtf, no it doesnt. This is the 2nd time ive seen someone say this in the past few days where the fuck are you getting this from?

Post body. Otherwise we can make the conclusion you're deluded about your own capabilities.

No it doesnt, tell me exacly where it says it cause ive read that entire fucking site and no where does it say that. If you had read it every question you just asked is answered on there btw.

that stronglift site is a fucking maze
some pages are only linked to other pages and you have to navigate through it all
but i have the SL 5x5 official app and it definitely goes to 3x5 after a certain number of deloads automatically
>that stronglift site is a fucking maze Are you talking about this? stronglifts.com/5x5/ Everything is on 1 page you mong. Did you even read that? You only switch if you absolutely have to deload. If you are deloading that much at that low of a weight something is wrong. Either your diet, sleep or hormones something has to be off. And then it even says after that switch to madcow.

he mention's 3x5 in the "How long should I do StrongLifts 5x5?" section of his page, he covers it in emails, and it's programmed into his app on android and iOS as a progression from 5x5 im not op
