Where the /routine thread/ at?
Post your lifting routine and ask questions you have about exercises and programming.
Some quick info for beginners
>#1: Read the Fucking Sticky
>If you want to gain/lose weight, TRACK YOUR CALORIES
>Unless you're late-Intermediate to Advanced, a tried and tested program made by professionals is always going to be better than something you came up with or read on the internet.
>Greyskull LP is overral the best beginner routine (pic is one good variation)
>SS, Reg Park's, SL or any LP program based on barbell lifts will fine too
Unless you want to get into Powerlifting, then Candito's or P2W programs are the best.
As a beginner you just need to pick a routine and stick to it, dont change stuff up too often.
After 6-ish months (or more if you keep progressing) you oughta switch to an Intermediate routine
>Bodyweight exercises are a good gauge to know if you're gaining too much fat too quickly. If your Rows and DL are progressing but your pullups are laggin behind, chances are you gotta lose some weight. do em
if you can't do pullups, use band-assisted pullups or negatives. they work
>You can gain strenght while losing fat. Unless you're pretty advanced, Cut/Bulk is not really needed, just stay at a sensible bf% and eat enough healthy food and plenty of protons
>track your fucking calories
>"Cardio kills gains" is a meme. You need cardiovascular health and aerobic capacity
>do HIIT optimally, low intensity steady state cardio is fine too, HIIT can be tough to recover from.
>You should STRETCH. Make it a habit. Mobility is crucial both for gains and muscle health.
>Do not static stretch before lifting, stretching cold muscles makes them more prone to injury and hinders your strenght.
>Do Dynamic warmups, warm up ALL joints and antagonistic muscles before a lift
If you're having trouble progressing, your routine is solid, you're resting, eating and sleeping enough, feel free to post a form check.
