I am already lifting one year and I am know at: 0.4/0.8/0.8/0.8 I really want to make progress and be at 1/2/3/4 when I turn 21. I became 19 this weekend, do you think my goal is reachable? Or is there not enough time?
I am super motivated I do not want to be hold back by my routine this time. So pls give me tips.
day 6: show up late and try to pick up the chicks you never see in the gym regularly, do curls to impress them
day 7: is god's day, call it leg day but don't do legs

You're not smart enough to be making your own programs.
Read the sticky. Bulk. Do more volume. Lift every other day. Don't drink, don't smoke. Minimum 120grams of protein per day. Recommended 1 gram per pound of bodyweight of protein per day.
You can do this, I believe in you.
Aiden Campbell
I actually read the sticky but I do not like the programs mentioned there. People here always say SS is a meme and SL is not that good.
Could you help me on the routine? Every beginner routine is letting arms and abs out, and I am not really liking that.
Xavier Wilson
you can reach those lifts in 2 years yeah, be careful about taking advice from Veeky Forums though since like every other board people will spread misinformation and be contrarian for the sake of it. read the sticky here and check out the wiki on /r/fitness as well
Owen Diaz
just don't look for "beginner" routines and look for one you like and work towards it
Jaxon Jones
Arms and abs come very quickly, you'll need a solid foundation if you're ever going to get to 1/2/3/4
SS and SL are good, 5/3/1 is okay as long as you're using it as a bare minimum.
Isaiah Diaz
You think so? I think I am going to start SS then.
Austin Mitchell
Good luck, learn good form first, worry about impressing Veeky Forums later. Read this: strongerbyscience.com/guides/
Get stronk, my dude
Hunter Rodriguez
SS is a meme is a meme. Read the sticky faggot
Carter Mitchell
please stop

It isn't as simple as "full body" vs "brosplit."
There are lots of split routines that are still full of compound lifts, are superfunctionalpaleo etc. or whatever bullshit it is that you want.
I suppose according to internet retards, PPL is a brosplit?
Levi Morales
It took me like 2 months to hit a 135 bench. How tf are you at 115 after a year?
Colton Green
If you didnt make gains with a bro split your not gonna make gains with ss. You did something wrong
Carter Rivera
Go for a PPL routine. The one on the /r/Fitness wiki isn't bad (the 6 day one is what I'm using), but you might want to find what suits you best
Luis Campbell
I already know the form, I am doing the big OHP/ Squat/ DL for 3 months now, and Bench one year. But thank you
SS is what they want you to do in the sticky...
Brosplit Monday: Chest + Triceps Tuesday: Back + Biceps Friday: Legs + Shoulders I never highered the weight and only did 20 reps of everything. The pt in my old gym always told me to higher the weight only if I am 100% sure and he told me to deload quite often. He also said if I stall, I should to lighter weight sets with like 30 reps and have the ROM. I discovered this place quite late :/
Here are a lot of fit dudes on Veeky Forums and most of them started with a LP program I think. I want to try it, at least once. Also PPL is so close to a brosplit
Dylan Martin
Fair enough, regarding the brosplit similarities... I think having a bit of recovery time for each muscle group is wise though
Wyatt Thomas
Do starting strength, follow the program. Do it well and you're done in 3-4 months and you're ready to start w/e you want.
I did SS after a long hiatus from the gym, best thing I could have ever done
Austin Turner
It isn't horrible but,
You shouldn't be doing it if you don't know what you're doing. Experienced lifters can gauge it much better.
Learn your base shit and move on from there.

Your brosplit sounds dangerously similar to my routine. I do Monday: chest + triceps + shoulders Wednesday: Biceps + bakc friday: legs + abs + forearms
I do 3 sets of 8-10 reps.
Am I fucking up?
Nolan Parker
In my newbie opinion yes. I did not make any gains on this.
Eli Gray
Well fuck. I'm on a cut now so i guess it's okay, but still.
Juan Barnes
A bit. You're not going to make good gains on that frequency, try hitting everything 2x or more per week
Wyatt Hill
Buy/download the book/app and READ it READ IT ALL before you start it Goddamn it, but it's good
