I'm making this thread because I'm lost. I don't know what routine or diet would do the best for me. What would you reccomend for a beginner? (Don't even THINK about saying GOMAD) I'm currently 6'0", around 140lbs. I've been in a gym only for a month, doing a beginner bro-split with almost no weight. I'll probably end up doing SS or SL anyways, but any advice will be appreciated! Also, it would be great if someone would calculate my bf% based on my pics. Thanks!

Ethan Reed
Btw normies say I have nice pecs (lol no)
Landon Morris
Why the fuck would you do SL/SS?
Jose Kelly
Is it a bad idea? Why?
Christopher Jenkins
I never understand why would anybody do strength focused routine? what's the fucking point? The only thing thsat will make you is that you'll be able ot move furniture better i'm sure that's a great use
Liam Wood
What would you recommend?
Ayden Jones
AxBxAxx alternate
split these 6 muscles into 2 gorups for example A: Chest, triceps, shoulder B: back, biceps, legs
if too little for you, do 2 A and 2 B in a week
James Cook
So no 5x5? What is good?
Carter Jones
Nigga just fucking eat whatever you want. As long as you get over 4k calories it should be enough to gain some weight. Permabulk all the way bro
Asher Foster
Yeah, i'm probably not gonna do that. Don't get me wrong, I'm not afraid of fat, but I think a lean bulk and a compound are better than a DIRTY FUCKING PERMA-BULK followed by an impossible cut
Cooper Lopez
So that is better than A Squats/OHP/Deadlift B Squats/Bench/Power Cleans (hell let's even say rows) + some accessories like chin-ups or dips AxBxAxx Okay then...
Andrew Wright
do 3x8 5x5 is more strength focused again, why would you want that? why the fuck would he want squats every daily? why the fuck would he want ohp and deadlifts at all? why the fuck power cleans?
Robert Bennett
Squats 3 times a week may come handy actually, I have weak legs and shitty calves
>why would you do deadlift? They're pretty cool >and ohp? Shoulders maybe? I think you are memeing me my friend
Logan Richardson
Nice tits twink
Zachary Ward
well, if your goal is to be more efficient at moving around furniture, be my guest mate
Gabriel Howard
Do i have gyno?
Elijah Jenkins
You are king of skeletons man. You are close to Auswitch mode. ''Clean bulk'' won't give you any real gains. Gotta eat big to get big
Jaxson Collins
Do what he said and lift heavy weights. Lean bulking while natty.. good luck.
Ryan Moore
I will eat big and healthy at the same time, or is that impossible? Thank you
Daniel Anderson
Just eat more really. I started with Greyskull LP at 130lbs. Just double up on everything you eat.
Owen Thompson
When did you start? How old were you? Did it work? Where are you at now?
Lucas Stewart
Does nobody notice the running dinosaur?
Christopher Butler
Hey OP, that retard telling you not to do compounds is trolling you. Please do SS or SL and eat over daily rec calories. With such low amount of muscle mass, dont worry about your BF percent. Yes, you are going to get a little bit of fat while bulking, but the amount of muscle you will put on during that time will be 10 million times as much as you not eating over. Dont eat 5k calories every day, just 300-500 over.
Mason Gray
At 150lbs ca right now. Started a few months back. Age 30. Just dont go fucking eat 3.5-4k kcal. You will get fat in a week top.
Cameron Lopez
So if my BMR is of 1700, i should be aiming for 2200 or so?
Brody Green
Not that guy, but that's a good number, yes. Good thing about being a skelly is that you're pretty much a blank slate, makes it easier to see progress. Do Phrak's Greyskull variation, I started with it and it's pretty well balanced. As a skelly who obviously doesn't do anything, you NEED compound lifts to look like a human being before you start focusing more on aesthetics.
Connor Wilson
Thank you! You're good fellow, I won't spook you tonight
Anthony Sullivan
Holy shit the huge amount of fucking shit that i see coming out of you guys is insane..
OP I wasnt going to post but there are so many faggots in here giving terrible advice I thought id come save you.
Diet Ok heres the deal there are two ways to do this . 1. Work out your daily macros (google will help you calculate them, then track them using a fitness app, I recommend "my fitness pal") This will make sure you are getting enough of the right shit to bulk you up with out gaining stupid amounts of fat.
2. Work out ur bodys daily callorie requirment and just eat 20% above it every day (which might be hard, if its to hard try 10%) If you only count callories chances are you will get to a fair bit of extra fat with the muscle u gain.
Exercise
As a newbie it dosnt fucking matter very much the most important thing is learning all the big compound movments, you need them down with good form before you add any real weight. SS is a great opening program, dispite what these faggots are telling you. But the truth of the matter is gaining muscle when you have none is super easy, Muscle gain gets harder and harder the more you want to put on so the first bit of muscle is super easy and as you progress it will get progressively harder and harder to gain more muscle.
Quick side note, Look up form for compound movments on the internet and after you have done so go to your gym and ask one of the trainers if he can take a sec to show you it and help you. Compounds can be abit scary at first but just start with the bar or small dumbells.
Also fuck the rest of you guys for making me sit up and right this.
Tyler Nelson
Yes, I know how to track my macros and yes, I'll ask for a check of form to a trainer, I'm not autistic. Sorry you had to sit up to write.
Josiah Barnes
