Why can't lifting and fitness just be as easy as simply doing cardio, eating well and doing barbell lifts? Why do you have to learn as much as a physical therapist just to fix all of the issues you have from working in a modern day environment despite being early 20's and never overweight and as prevention for when you inevitably fuck something up you didn't know was about to become an issue before even though you've enjoyed reading SS multiple times over the years and have made sure to lift with proper form?
Like lifting is extremely easy and enjoyable and cardio is ok but figuring out what is wrong with your body and how to fix injuries you will inevitably get is so difficult and mentally taxing

One of the other big problems is that nutrition science is a corrupt fucking joke and nobody knows what the optimal diet is.
Gabriel Evans
you're thinking too hard about it.
most of the injuries you're thinking about stem from not working important smaller muscles like the rotator cuff group, lower back, or your forearms / hands when you're DYEL and use a keyboard all day.
nutrition is as simple as eating several types of vegetables, a lot of lean meats, some red meats, whole grain carbs, and beans. you can eat processed shit if you want, just don't devour entire boxes of donuts every day
the big secret is that you don't HAVE to lift huge weights day in day out to be healthy

honestly thats because you have shit genetics
for people with good genetics, they can casually lift a couple times a week and look amazing. Its only you that needs to go through hoops to see results
Jeremiah Cooper
just eat enought protein and lift it's not rocketscience

Generally, living normal lives and more or less forgetting they even did that stuff.

It is easy if you alternate cardio and HIIT, use your bodyweight for lifting.

Thats what happens when you do meme lifts like squats and deadlifts. You inevitable fuck your shit up.

Roughly speaking, how long does it take to reach 1/2/3/4 on the lifts? Assuming you start from struggling with the bar.
Once you have reached 1/2/3/4, how long does it take, again roughly speaking, to reach 2/3/4/5?
If your goal is an aesthetic body, after you reach 1/2/3/4 should you continue to pursue strength and aim for 2/3/4/5, or move onto a bodybuilding program?
What bodybuilding programs would you recommend?
Ryder Bailey
Maxing ur lifts wont make tou aesthetic it will make you strong but not aesthetic unless your some vapid roidmonkey Look into original strongmen who were the kings of aesthetics you will see that proportions matter the most not how big you get
Colton Peterson
Depends how fat you're willing to get
Jaxon Gomez
>Why can't lifting and fitness just be as easy as simply doing cardio I have it waaay harder doing cardio than lifting.
Levi Morales
there's no get about it
Connor Cooper
If you're already fat and struggling with the bar you're in for a long journey. If you wanna be lean when you're done then 3-5 years depending on genetics, more with poor dedication.
Josiah Ortiz
In terms of building the strength for 1/2/3/4 and subsequently 2/3/4/5 I do not wish to move beyond 90kg/200lbs. For reference, I am currently 87kg/191lbs, 179cm/5'10, 24 years old, and just started getting into lifting in late December. My lifts are pretty miserable but I am trying to stop fucking around, lift more often, and follow starting strength. I can currently OHP 30kg 3x5, bench 50kg 3x5, squat 60kg 3x5, and deadlift 95 1x5. I am fortunate enough to have access to a home gym where I can squat, bench, deadlift, and overhead press but I was just curious as to how long it will take me to reach 1/2/3/4.
Is strength not the base upon which you build your aesthetics? I thought you could not look aesthetic without lifting heavy weights for high reps? Am I wrong in thinking this?
Thank you very much to the both of you.
Adam Nelson
>Is strength not the base upon which you build your aesthetics? I thought you could not look aesthetic without lifting heavy weights for high reps? Am I wrong in thinking this?
You can't do heavy weights for high reps because 'heavy' is relative. Being strong will help, but you can get pretty ripped with low weight high reps - probably better for the long term seeing as the injury chance is lower. Aesthetics is just muscle mass with low bf%
Eli Walker
This is what separates the serious lifters from the faggot gym bros. If you take the time to fix your problems you will proceed, but if you're like "yeah my shoulder hurts I guess I'm doing less bench press today" and never actually address the issue and never getting past the pain and shitty bench. And besides we all have problems, clicking knees, bad backs, crooked spine, clicking shoulder ect ect... These faggots say "Hurr hurr bad genetics hurr hurr" they just sit on their ass eating fucking cheetos while jerking off to the vid in OP's post, it's not the best of course, but be glad that all you have is a clicking knee instead of fucking scoliosis. And be glad that (assuming) you're not a manlet. (If you are a manlet you really lost the genetic lottery sorry bro)
Christopher Smith
Imagine if he club her with his retard monster hand he would destroy her lol.
Julian Fisher
I understand that 'heavy' is a relative term but what I meant was, would you have a better base for building aesthetics at 1/2/3/4 or 2/3/4/5? Or are you saying that I should not even aim for 1/2/3/4 and instead move straight onto a hypertrophy based program?
Is muscle mass built more easily through acquiring a strength base or moving straight onto a hypertrophy based routine?
John Richardson
If you wanna get strong aim for numbers. If you wanna get big aim for hypertrophy . >Is muscle mass built more easily through acquiring a strength base or moving straight onto a hypertrophy based routine? I mean hypertrophy programmes are literally designed to build muscle mass...

post body, genuinely curious to see what an adult male that struggles to lift 20kg looks like.
Julian Ward
This is the perfect gf: >that face and DEM HIPS >no tits, perfect for bullying her and make her insecure and seek your validation
Okay, now I am starting to feel retarded, haha. Here is my dilemma. I want to get bigger and more aesthetic but I assumed that the building of a strength base was a necessity for acquiring this. I would like to look like something along the lines of A8, B8, C8, or D8. I understand that these bodies take years of dedication to lifting and dieting but if you were to seek to achieve this in the shortest amount of time possible, except for taking steroids, what would be the path of least resistance?
Christ bro, as a beginner you should unironically start with an LP program that increases your strength like GSLP. You get stronger but will also get hypertrophy. You're increasing CNS gains and getting used to compound lifts. Both very much needed. Don't be that faggot benching 80 pounds for 3x10. Try not being a fucking faggot and reading a little before you come asking everything.
John Garcia
what should I do in order to treat and cure my wrist pain and sensibility? its like this shitty discomfort that I know if I try to workout and do benchpress/push ups/pull/chin ups it just will make it worse and I stopped working out few months ago but I still feel this pain and sensibility in my wrist and the fact I am on the computer most of the day doesn't help but what can I do to cure my wrist fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkk
Fucking hate cardio, love lifting. If you dislike lifting you are a low test beta male.
Ayden Taylor
I felt that I had done my due diligence and done background reading. It seems you are basing your response off of a singular post and forgetting the context of the comment chain. I have been lifting according to starting strength and following the 3x5 OHP, bench, squat, and 1x5 deadlift, format. Again, I understand that the development of the CNS and strength base are important. My question is, at what point should one move from building strength to building hypertrophy if their goal is ultimately aesthetics?

Just find a reputable beginner program and stick with it.

>assuming you start struggling with the bar
You won’t unless you’re a skeleton or also unironically a girl
To get 1/2/3/4 for a 1RM shouldn’t take more than a year if you’re always eating enough and on the right program. For reps takes longer. Some people reach these goals much quicker
Also aesthetic includes leanness. Seriously though build a strength base
Do a 6 day PPL split so you have solid frequency and isolation work. This way you aren’t benching once a week like on SS and wondering why you have no upper body
Based on my own experience I recommend benching heavy twice a week and doing heavy OHP on leg day after squats. Invest in some 1.25 and 0.5 lb plates as well
If you only have a barbell then replace lat pull downs with weighted pull-ups and cable rows with seal barbell rows
