THANK YOU FOR THE DIRECT INFORMATIVE CONTENT. So I'm beginner and I want to know what I should do from the moment I walk out from home to get back, should i just do these 3 exerciese per workout or do I have to add some warm-up cardio or stretches or and pre -compound exercise to warm up like the squats doing leg extensions and curls or that is not for beginners and for the more advanced levels. I also want to know if it is okay to play basketball on off days. Thanks again.
Good questions. Warm up: can simply do light barbell exercises to warm up, generally, though you can do a general warm up if you want (e.g. like a short 5 minute cardio type thing). Here is a video we did on warming up: ruclips.net/video/ye11IGhcS5A/видео.htmlsi=EheKAX13BAnoIrdF Yes, fine to play BBall on your off days, though pay attention to your recovery. It may actually work better to play basketball on days you lift so you have days off. Ensure you at least have one day completely off (no cardio, basketball, or lifting). 3 exercises or just fine. 2 basic options. 3x weekly total body Squat 3x5 Press or Bench PRess 3x5 Deadlift 1x5 OR 4-day split Lower (2x weekly) Squat 3x5 Deadlift 1x5 Upper Press 3x5 Bench Press 3x5 (optional) Chin-ups or similar

We would say hold off, for now - let the squats & deadlifts do their works. Later on, though, that additional stress will be beneficial to adding more muscle.
i/reduce the squats to 3x5 ii/at some point, you as an individual, will have gone as far as you can on 'daily' linear progression; necessitating a switch to either 'waveform' or weekly progression programs (Texas Method, Madcow, Nsuns, 531, Candito). Either that, or follow the bro advice of "just up your calories" and turn into a blob
Hey there! See below! Monday: Workout A Wednesday: Workout B Friday: Workout A Monday: Workout B Wednesday: Workout A Friday: Workout B You want to give yourself a REST DAY between every workout. In order to get stronger, you must give your body the time to recover from your workouts. :) Hope this helped!
@@keeeeegs My question to you would be, what is the purpose of running that extra 5k on your days off? Weight loss? To keep busy and work out all 7 days a week?
It will likely affect your recovery and impact your workouts in the long-run, so if you can go through this program for a few months without running too much, you’ll have a better shot at getting as strong as possible very quickly. That said, if you really LOVE running and cannot go without it, I’d recommend running on Saturday, or immediately after your workout so that you have an extra day off before your next training session :)
@@BarbellLogic Hey mate. I've started this yesturday. I accidently did 3 x 5 on the deadlift because i was paying too much attention towards the end. Wasnt the end of the world though. I started my workout with 5km on the treadmill then went on to Squat, Bench, Dead. for 3x5 The reason i want to run too is because i enjoy it. Im booked in for a half marathon in Feb too. Im not starting from an absolute beginning, im pretty fit but doing this program is a way for me to get back into the gym and i want to get STRONGER :)
For those that quit within a few months. Is following the recovery schedule necessary when deloading 50%? When to incorporate OHP/Power Cleans/rows. Those lifts are much harder, and risky when done wrong. I would be happy to make it back to lifting triple digits. I end up losing most of my gains because of my hobby of competitive cycling for 8 months of the year. Is it all nutritional, or do I need to lift 12months of the year to maintain? If one runs out of plates, can they simply increase reps, my bar maxes at 120lbs?
@@BarbellLogic I went back to the book and started following it correctly, so yes I am doing deadlift 3x a week right now. I think this next week we are adding power cleans, so I think it’s going to change though.
This sounds like exactly what I need to start my journey into strength training! I have a few questions though: so the first time I do workout B, I add 5lbs to the weight I did on my first workout A .. so then 2nd workout A will use the weight from the first workout B? Then jumps another 5lbs on 2nd workout B, etc etc? Second question is when do the press and bench increase in weight? Finally, for a beginner like myself, how long should this program be ran for? Or is there no set timeframe, it’s going to be different for each person? Thanks guys!
You add 5 pounds each time you go in to the gym. Some folks do it longer than others. Just get in there and do it! ruclips.net/video/7lBCaUS1_uY/видео.html
There is no need to focus on a specific muscle group if it is already being trained in the four big movements. It's a waste of time to treat the body in such a piecemeal approach.
Generally the same as what we program as a novice but with two extra sets. You'll need to change the program quite a bit earlier to account for the extra volume than with a 3x5 LP. We feel that as a rank novice, 3x5 is enough stress to progress.
@Chad W same repetive dogma huh? love me some pink dumbells. I do a heavy 4 day split that SS recommends for more intermediate lifters. But, I think I could benefit from LP still.
For a novice, if on the third working set one finds he still has 2-3 reps left in the tank, should he do them? IOW, working set of 5-5-7, e.g. Or under this program should one just stop at 5 reps on the 3rd set no matter what?
Barbell Logic Yes. I’m still training to get the forms sold as well. I’m still used to the “ bro splits” mindset with the fantasy of big arms. Basically I’m relearning every thing.
Glad you're willing to relearn and rethink your time in the gym. Try to stick to the linear progression as written the best you can, without the additional arm day. Once your deadlift starts to slow down, you can add chins and get a nice bicep pump from those :)

Macedonicus The answer is increase the weight by 5lbs. If you increase 5lbs on each side (10lbs.) ...you will notice progress stalls much quicker. The importance of 5 pound increases is critical.

3 exercises or just fine. 2 basic options.
3x weekly total body

Upper

(optional) Chin-ups or similar
IN THIS INITIAL TRAINING, COULD YOU PUT THE LEG PRESS TOGETHER WITH THE SQUATS? OR IS IT NOT NECESSARY? THANK YOU.
Not necessary - might add that in later as you get more advanced.
Is that a Poor Charlie's Almanack I see in the background??

What to do when bench stalls but deadlift and squat still progress?
Move the bench to more complex programming. The other lifts stay the course!
I found adding more volume to bench after stalling helpful
i/reduce the squats to 3x5

wait workout B doesnt have power clean?

Great video thanks

Dang, I need to go back and read my book. I’ve been doing three sets of five on dead lift and it’s been killing me. LOL
You can reduce to 2x5 or 1x5 and that will help you to continue adding weight 💪 are you deadlifting 3x a week?
@@BarbellLogic
I went back to the book and started following it correctly, so yes I am doing deadlift 3x a week right now.

What % of our 1 RM should we start for the lifts?
Can you do accessorie movements on top of the compound movements
Yes, but that's usually done after completing NLP.
what about specific muscle group focused exercises daily rather than the mix?
There is no need to focus on a specific muscle group if it is already being trained in the four big movements. It's a waste of time to treat the body in such a piecemeal approach.
@Barbell Logic Thoughts on Stronglifts 5x5
Generally the same as what we program as a novice but with two extra sets. You'll need to change the program quite a bit earlier to account for the extra volume than with a 3x5 LP. We feel that as a rank novice, 3x5 is enough stress to progress.
What if I want to lift more than 3 times per week?
@Chad W same repetive dogma huh? love me some pink dumbells. I do a heavy 4 day split that SS recommends for more intermediate lifters. But, I think I could benefit from LP still.
Perfect 👌🏼

We just answered your question in your above comment!
@@BarbellLogic I didn't find the answer :(
No bent over row thanks
Yep, we add in later.
would it be good if at workout B instead of deadlifts, do rows?
Sure!
Would it be wrong to do other barbell workouts in those days as well as maybe a arm day?
Are you still running the novice linear progression?
Barbell Logic
Yes. I’m still training to get the forms sold as well. I’m still used to the “ bro splits” mindset with the fantasy of big arms.
Basically I’m relearning every thing.

What do you do if a beginner has the poorest mobility and stability, can't do no one of compound dlifts?
You may need to incorporate some gentle stretches such as the "low bar squat stretch"
Men, just 3 exercises by gym´s session?! 3x by week?
For beginners, yes
