The rest part is really up to you, try it out and see if you feel rested. Diet is going to the hard part, you are going to have eat well above maintenance because of the cardio. I'm running a similar...

Based on what you just said I don't think you really looked all that hard. As they say, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink. Anyway, best of luck!

The only reason I like Strong Lifts (SL) is because the marketing is strong enough to grab people's attention and get them asking questions and doing research. Hopefully somewhere along the way they...

Are you sure you have your diet in check? Have you calculated your macros? It really sounds like your muscles just aren't getting what they need to grow stronger.

I'm totally saying that from now on while sticking with SS.

Metamucil Wafers, nothing works better. Eat 4-6 wafers a day, if you are still backed up after 2 days go see a doctor.

Do you define progress as gaining muscle or losing weight?

They give it a half-ass try, don't get the results they wanted, then blame the program. The obvious solution to the problem of not even being able to run a beginner program properly is to just skip...

You seem to be confusing weight loss and your measurements. I'm with the poster above, but possibly more on the extreme side. You are trashing your body. You say you are nutritionist, so you should...

A little unrelated, but the PC quickly became my favorite exercise and had a noticeable net positive impact on the rest of my lifts over time.

I had to stack plates until I got up to 45s on the PC. 35s have enough surface area to make a solid base, but if your gym doesn't have them stack up 2 45's on either side.

The subject of your post appealed to us for help, stating that you haven't lost any weight. You then go on to say that you have not weighed yourself. ..

Have you looked into 5/3/1 or GST? Both can be modified to be 3 day splits and are geared towards hypertrophy.

Would you rather not be as weak as you look, or look stronger than you are?

With your two options one is inherently more negative than the other: pleasing vs. non-pleasing. But mine are completely neutral. If you say the second implies a lack of strength you must also say...

I worded it this way on purpose. The results would have been totally different had I asked are you a PL or BB? That poll has been done before. Anyway, you are only perceiving one of the statements as...

There is a world of difference semantically between "switching up routines" and "switching up a routine." The progressive overloading built into SS IS the switching up. The weight is increasing so...

Yeah, I get what you mean, it changes depending on what stage you are presently at. For instance, right now I'd rather put on mass over strength, but ultimately once my size is sufficient, strength...

OP, how much weight, if any, did you gain during the 3 months of Starting Strength?

Would you rather?
