I need a workout program!!! Plz help!

[Jimbo903]

Hello fellow body building enthusiast, I need your advice!!! Here's the thing, I've been lifting for a while now, however, I see little improvement. Now I'm a pretty skinny guy (6'1, 150 lbs) and I hoping get bigger and build muscles. Here are my questions:

1. What is the difference between all pro's "a simple beginner's routine" and starting strength/rippetoe? Which one will work better for me?

2. What about HST? Do you think I'm ready for it?

3. From your experiences, which workout program is the best for muscle hypertrophy???

Please don't give me another article or thread to read, I'm really sick of them...
Thank you so much!!!

1. all pros is the more size oriented program

2. No - progression is too slow

Remember to eat. You should be seeing a scale weight gain of 2-3lbs a month accompanied by strength gains.

1. Eat. Drink Milk. Eat more.
2. Starting Strength by Mark Rippetoe
3. Repeat steps 1 + 2 for 6 months.
4. Add 50lbs to bench + squats and 25 lbs on scale.

Keep it simple, keep it beginner.

Thanks! So from what you're saying, starting strength is more effective than all pro's workout plan in terms of weight gain and muscle hypertrophy?

Yes. It's far more effective. Their workouts are advanced and suited for anabolic steroid use. I personally have tried 5 day splits and made minimal progress. Starting Strength and Bill Starr 5x5 have been far and away the best mass and strength programs I've used.

Honestly, just pick one and stick with it... both routines will work but only if you follow them. SS will feel like it's too easy at first ( a lot of guys say this starting out ) but if you stick with it and add the weight when you are supposed to, it will start kicking your ass! the important thing on any routine is stick it out! too many guys give up on a routine because they dont think they are seeing results.

starting strength is probably the best program for you right now. the reason for this is because it's a book as well. you should pick that up and learn proper technique.

all pro's 'A Simple Beginners Workout' is a great program more geared towards buillding mass.

Either program would be a fine choice.

I don't know which one you are thinking of but all pros beginner program is for beginners, it is not a 5 day split, it's full body. And the OP asked for hypertrophy emphasis. SS is more for strength and sport training

he was thinking in terms of 'every pro'

I lol

^^^^^

Yes.

And he is right about them. They are useless for a typical drug free beginner.

all pro's on the other hand is a great program.
