My wife swears by StrongLifts and has used it for several months now. She was always in pretty good shape (way better than me), but now is even slimmer with a tighter butt.

I used it today and it seemed ok. But I know nothing.

"I need an app to lift weights"

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5525014&forum_id=2#47634851)

Base strength.ai is a new app from Alex Bromley that uses ai to coach your progress. It may be shit but its a cool idea.

The RP hypertrophy app is a paid option to do the same thing that is very sophisticated

The issue is that people take these articles or interviews with pro BBers as gospel and insist there's some awesome secret because it worked for some genetic freak of nature on 25g/week of test.

And there are a lot of people like Momo who went way beyond merely clogging their kidneys. We don't hear about the vast majority of these individuals.

However, those two things aren't marketable, so you never see them espoused.

That said, its simplicity & upper/lower body breakdown is probably better for beginners than the weird hit-every-muscle-group-in-seven-days stuff.

C-cup boobs that are kind of wasted on me because I’m an ass man.

Increasingly firm, round butt, which I love. She loves reverse cowgirl, I think because I am so enthusiastic about it. Wish she let me spank her more often.

day 2: squat, lunge

day 3: pull ups, standing row

day 4: deadlift, farmer walk

day 5: overhead press, lat raises

day 6: arms (optional)

day 7: rest

try to add weight as often as you can

eat a lot and eat healthy, sleep a lot

There are probably a million ways to do the above better, but Im also a dumb middle aged guy and the above seems to work for me.

Best advice: Spend a thousand or so and get a squat rack, bench, bar, plates, and some dumbbells. You'll spend the same for gym membership anyway, so just spend it upfront and save the 40 minute roundtrip commute. You can do all of this at ~30m a day

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5525014&forum_id=2#47635971)

There's nothing to "start." You walk into the rack and squat. You're done when you collapse.

No posting.

No discussion.

No debate.

No pictures.

Just fucking squat.

Please provide apps, subscriptions, and extremely complex 7-day full-body workout routines [(c) Flex Magazine 1994] that I will absolutely fail to follow. Additionally, please provide a list of overpriced supplements with the best placebo effects on the market.

I'll pay whatever it takes so long as I don't have to put in effort!

I'll let you have the last word after this, as it's about time for me to hit the fucking gym :)

I don’t think I’m eating any differently. Wife cooks Mediterranean diet basically.

If your goal is to lose weight, up your protein intake and decrease everything else. Since you’re a new lifter and talking about losing weight, even in a deficit I think you’d continue to accrue meaningful muscle mass while shedding fat.

As you approach goal weight that will stop happening and you’ll need to think about the next level of training and diet to see further gains.
