Interesting. Making solid progress?

Any other takers for a suggested program?

What set and rep ranges, and rest would you recommend?

Thanks guys, but I think everyone's misunderstanding. That's my current routine but I want to get it down to a 3 day workout routine preferably within 1 hour. Anyone know of an effective one for my...

Hey guys,

Man it's been so long since I've posted here. I've pretty much done my own things over the years, multiple injuries including messing up my shoulders, but here I am still roughly in one...

I've tried searching the forum for any info on training with slap tears but couldn't so I decided to type up a post. I've had a spot of shoulder trouble for about a year now that I originally pinned...

Thanks for the advice guys. I'm thinking maybe of trying madcows:...

Already did that, with pullups chinups and curls.

Hey guys haven't come back to this site in ages since i've had an injury. Anyways i've been pretty much hitting a wall with Starting Strength and wanting to try something simple with a more BB focus...

@ germaine I'll take a look into it but I was thinking...

Hey i don't want to bore with the details but i've been lifting for a few years now. All I've ever lifted with though is just the standard Rippetoe's SS and some variations thereof. I had to take a...

Basically Rip just says to not confine them to a rigid program and force them to try and make gains every workout as per SS, but rather teach them the core lifts, ensure they're using good form, and...

That's essentially pyramiding but as people have pointed out above, you have no need to increase volume if you are doing Starting Strength. Stick with the program.

Everyone should have them when they're born... :p
