why? as if the principles change.The sticky is the only thread that should stay up if you ask me

Sticky did work for me. Its fine as it is.

Actual theory with citations and not just links to the mod's favorite youtubers. Every fucking fitness forum does this and there is even a calisthenics subreddit that makes it mandatory to watch some vegan street workout guy to post there.
>urghhh that doesn't exist everyone is special and unique yadda yadda
It does exist you just have to read one of the 3 (three) books that compiled all the information.

>a clean diet table of contents including rest and optimal periods that you need ti recover strength or when is optimal to lift too much like for bodybuilding for optimal muscle building
I didn't even read it for a few years but it could be way simpler probably.
>>
idgaf but they should probably update the one on /o/ if they haven't. last time I checked it was still giving advice for buying cars like it was 2010. Like yeah bro I'll just buy a mint cavalier for 1500 loonies bro, no prob.
>>
>>77339959
I think thateveryth8ng being bundled together like >>77339967 would be especially productive for beginners and intermediates on how to start training more efficiently. For example, if you are lifting like youre bulking or vice versa it's a whole different style of training just like peaking your strength for 2mo vs having multiple reset periods to rest for a week or so and overloading volume while the comp is far out.
>>
>>77339926
>theory and citations
Lmao are you the post body guy?
>>
>>77338611
But honestly if the sidebar was sick amd concise enough to be followed unlike more than half of lifting programs, it'd be a nice touch.
>>
>>77339972
You could just put a quick start guide/recommended beginner routine up there too. Like the first 8 weeks
machine bench
leg press
lat pull/pullup
machine press
a row
Macros at a glance
I think assuming everyone that washes up here is a beginner is probably why our sticky is so shit in the first place (apart from not being maintained or updated at all)
>>
>>77339985
What I'd do as a beginner is 2 separate barbell lifts instead of machines and shit. The sooner you can nail 5 heavy sets of bench the better.
>>
>>77339991
Honestly images would be the best imo
>>
>>77339991
The first 6-8 weeks it's almost all neuromuscular adaptions. There's little point in doing something as unproductive and unstable as compounds that early. Just get them in there get them doing something where form is easy and they might get reasonably close to failure without hurting themselves. Then shift towards barbell or dumbell compounds which will still take a while to perfect form on but it's benefitting them from there on out and they at least have a clue where failure might be so they don't choke themselves.

>>77338611
No. Took me years to get them to bring back the old sticky. Why must everything be in a constant state of upheaval? Anything other than what we've got is a step down. The real problem is that basic questions are no longer met with "READ THE FUCKING STICKY" because bots and other malicious actors are not interested in getting fit. In fact, they want to destroy everything good about this place.

change is a universal constant, nothing ever stays the same

>>77338611

Wanna look like a bodybuilders?
train like a body builder
2 workouts of 3-4 sets of 8-12 reps on each muscle group, twice a week

wanna look like a fat fuck with a square body shape and lower back or shoulder injuries ?
do barbell training

wanna train like an athlete?
play sports, do cardio etc


Remove the shit about cutting, recomp, and bulking cause none of that shit matters unless youre on steroids

Remove shit about calories in calories out
>>
sticky should include a basic brosplit/ppl routine for new starters because my routine thread was full of faggots making fun of/mocking me instead of rec'ing a damn routine
>>
>>77338611
>What would you like to see in it?
links to underground labs
>>
Just link Lyle’s website at this point. There is a great series there for beginners
>>
Fitness is one of those things where people are prone to analysis paralysis and where they think they need to know every intricate detail, otherwise, they believe they won’t make any progress and will just be wasting their time. They want to optimize everything before they’ve even covered the basics. That’s why the sticky shouldn’t even steer them in that direction; it should motivate them to get started right away, simplify their decision-making, and really just focus on the core principles and the 80/20 rule.

Did you not notice? 4chan is fucking dead.

Same issue as the sticky desu lot of dead links and lost functionality. He has a lot of articles that are still in the index but are missing or otherwise unavailable.
>>
It's too biased towards strengthfaggotry. I'd mention Arnold's Encyclopedia or PPL as an alternative entry point to SS SL etc. A bit more depth in the cardio department would also be good.
