The reason they have higher bodyfat percentages us because they lift for power, not aesthetics. Do the programs. When you get a certain amount of bodyfat percentage, then you cut.

Like the above poster said the power lifters have higher body fat but because they are not competing and don't really care about looks mostly strength. I did ICF 5x5 for about 3 months and got good strength gains not much mass but I did see some. I now do a bro split but high intensity and I've gained more mass and I've gotten stronger while losing weight, but I recommend any of those 3 and just keep doing it until you're not comfortable with your body fat then cut

The thing is the reps are just 3x5 and Im affraid I wont see any Mass / hypertrophy gains because Im kinda skinny and i dont wana stay skinny and strong I want to look good and since im gona focus in just this exercises I dont know if it will work really good.
What do you think?

Do you have a trainer/strength coach working with your basketball team?
