Can't believe this thread was taken seriously! XD

I can't really fit all this into the title. I've had previous experience with Rippetoe's except I have a lower back strain (I worked out twice and the pain shot up) so I went to see my doctor, he...

I'm seeing my doctor tomorrow morning for him to tell how bad my lordosis is and/or if I blew this out of proportions. I'm assuming that I have lordosis because my ass does stick out, my belly...

I have lordosis; this is the third try I attempt Starting Strength, only to stop due to lower back pain. First time I went 4 months w/o feeling the pain. Second time, 5 workouts. This time, two...

I was doing Starting Strength 2 years ago, squatting 210 pounds and deadlifting 230 pounds at 150 pounds of BW and I had to stop because of pain. A month ago I started training and after 2 weeks of...

Thanks so much dude :) repped

In case someone is to use search to find this:

Conclusion : stop worrying and just eat tons and workout, worry about eating tons and make sure there is a net...

Wow! I've never seen that! I have the book and all, which I read every day on the crapper and before going, thanks, I'll read it right away

I'm 5'8'', used to weigh 120 pounds, went on SS and reached 155 pounds with my deadlift/squat/bench being 3x230 lbs/3x210 lbs/3x135 lbs. Then, my lower back started hurting, my form was bad, I went...

Someone sticky this post

That's way too much. Try rippetoe's SS, it's in the sticky. It's a godsend for starters!

Not necessarily. Seeing his lifts means he started recently. He's still far away from his 1RM (lack of neural conditioning, etc.) so if he adds 10 lbs on deadlift/squats not to overdo it, it's okay...

Military press is the first exercise you stall on, then come (bench) presses, rows, squats, deadlifts. Make sure you're eating properly and resting since it will optimize muscle growth/neural...

From what I've heard, you have two different kind of muscles. Fast-twitch muscles and slow-twitch muscles. Both are present where you have muscles, but in different proportions. The exact proportions...

I'm down with that too

And also, I seem to have read in various sources (correct me if I'm wrong though) that testosterone production increases and reaches a peak when you get to around 20% Body Fat, which means that the...

500 calories a day above maintenance means you gain a pound a week, that usually means that you gain 4 pounds a month, which worked pretty damn well with me.

Are you a beginner at training (programs have to take that into account if so) and also, the second arm day is useless, you should take that off.

But if you actually get to those weights and realize that you can get even stronger... then milk it!!

Somebody gotta' delete that ****... my parents freaked out when they saw that

Eat slightly less than your body needs and you will lose it. Spot reduction is a myth, it's not only by training your chest that that area is going to lose its fat and turn to muscle. Your body...
