Right in what? No one that wants to look good or looks good squats three times a week like a fucking retard.

Not even Tom Platz hit legs 3x/wk.

Rippetoe is right about some things. But not the Wahr ohn Deeath.
>>
>>76787357
We do not 'hit legs' on starting strength. We train basic human movement patterns.

>Not even Tom Platz hit legs 3x/wk
Because he is not a novice anymore

Squats are for faggots. You will never look good natty if you spam squats like a bitch.

I'm unironically trying to get some glute gains, is SS the way to go?

Thanks Rip.

>>76787851
Maybe not SS specifically but low bar squats are great for glute gains

I was against him but as I got older I eventually realized he is mostly right about lifting. His political views and abrasive tone turns off some browns.
>>
>>76785686
He got fucking shredded when he swapped to a higher volume program
>>
>>76787357
>Modern ideologies behind fitness have more or less proven him to be a hack.
I challenge you to list any point where he was wrong. In absence of this you can just post body.

Both will accomplish the same thing.
>>
>>76785621
I can see Rippetoe's physique in the OP and he doesn't look like someone I should take advice from
>>
>>76787805
You have to have a big squat and dead to look good as a natty
You don't need a ton of volume but you can't get the hormones you need to look good without plenty of heavy compounds

>>76787777
Holy fucking checked quads

Why are you gay?
The point is just that your body can really only move in a few ways. The basic lifts are moving your body in those few ways, with resistance included. It's the most simple thing imaginable.

>>76790264
He still lifts

No wonder that faggot stopped lifting

if I wanted to listen to a fat retard complain about sleepy joe then I'd watch a Trump rally.

No you don't. You need developed upper body. Especially Shoulders.

Indian American here. I used to follow Rippetoe religiously until he started going off about H1B immigrants and other political nonsense. That was the point I dropped Starting Strength completely. Now I stick to more progressive, science-based programs like BBM and Greg Nuckols. Actual progress, less boomer rage xenophobia bigotry.
>>
Starting Strength is for newcomers. Build your strength following the program for your first 4-9 months, then segue to other more precise traing methodologies. Its for beginners.

Also, not everyone is going to look aestehtic, especially if theyre a little chubby. But SS is not a bodybuilding or aestehtics routine. Its an introduction to barbell traing program. Youre not supposed to look like a stage ready bodybuilder at the end of your SS novice linear progression. If at the end you look like shit, get your diet in order and start doing other exercises/movemeent patterns.

The SS program is just supposed to get you decently strong in the major lifts. Thats literally all it is.

Sorry to hear about your insecurity, saar. Please redeem your work visa.

Yes pretty funny

Based if true

He's been inserting political ramblings in his videos since covid. Maybe even before that.

Retard, I asked about H1Bs.
I have never heard him badmouth H1Bs, but he should.

I am getting really tired of the illiteracy of jeets online.
Jeet fatigue is real.
>>
>>76790120
He's having a presence through his fans
>>
>>76785585
The only good thing about him is SS which is only good for newbies without coaches, I wasted years doing fahvs when I should've just went westside or similar "intensity compound/volume isolation" program.
>>
>>76793300
>as a beginner do an incredibly boring and technically difficult program that will get you fat
yeah no
>>
>>76795668
>technically difficult
If you're a retard, yes.
