    ICF 5x5 version 2.0 good???

    Ok so, I’m 16 and have been lifting for 3months. I really want to start a beginners program that is proven to provide strength and aesthetic gains. I wanted to do ICF 5x5 but due to school and other commitments I can only be in the gym for MAX-1.5 hours. I also had a look at all the recommended programs such as SS, BLSS, SL and Fierce 5. These programs look great and if I had to choose I would properly pick SL 5x5 and include chin-ups and dips.

    However, I found a ICF 2.0 and was wondering if it encompasses the best of both worlds.

    They're both (ICF 5x5 & ICF 2.0) solid routines.

    I think he's wrong to take shrugs out of 2.0. And if you have the strength putting chins back in place of curls won't do any harm IMHO.
    I couldn't wait for success so I went ahead without it

    Should I do version 2.0 but keep the main compounds to 5x5 until cant anymore? This way it is literally SL but with a few acessories

    Yeah trust me if I had the time to do those long workouts I would definitly do it. I was just wondering if the version 2.0 I shared would still get me great results of strength and hypertrophy and if it was superior to SL 5x5.

    Thanks anyways

    I don't trust anything that comes out of Jason Blaha's mouth personally, he has the worst physique in the industry and has mediocre strength, after working out for a decade

    Ok, thanks everyone I think I’m gonna run ICF 2.0 then, seeing that nobody could tell me anything that is wrong with the program. If anyone else reads this, feel free to take a look at it and let me know what you think.

    Thanks for the help

    If you are doing all basic exercises, even by turn but in good quality - you'll succeed
