Attention to all newbs: DYEL, NYR, fags of all kinds.
Do not fall for this hoax, will you more than likely end up injured.
The entire premise of this book is to lead you to believe, that whatever you're lifting or moving, has to be in a straight line, and thus will maximize effectiveness.
Unfortunately, this is incorrect. Our bodies are more sophisticated than simple machines, we have many stabilizer muscles and our bones are not designed to lift in the way this particular book is informing us to do.
I injured myself while attempting to stupidly follow the squatting chapter. What a bunch of shit.
trolls need not reply, they're mad I discovered the secret and am letting it all out

You injured yourself doing squats? All you do is squat down, then stand up. This ain't rocket science.

Look at that retarded angle on the cover. You're going to injure your lower back with all that weight.

DLs are a leg exercise, not a back exercise. That's why y'all get perky butts from SS.

Deadlifts work the butt, upper thighs, hamstrings, lower back, upper middle back, traps, and gives a kind of "fullness" in the chest

I actually don't buy into the whole "straight bar path is best because it's more efficient" thing either, however I wouldn't write off the whole book or program because of this.

Heavy squats will make you shit blood if you fuck it up even a little.

lol this workout troll why would you have fucking squats and deadlifts on the same day?? thats fucking insane.
some NYR definitely made that routine.
put deadlift into pull day then its 6/10 routine at best compared to SS
51 min later 17010371 scott
>>17010339
Really? You don't?
The bar has to travel more distance if it's not in a straight line. Harder work.

no straight bar path is so wrong for DL
I prefer an enlongated "S" bar lift path with 700 lbs to get a real ROM for the DL

Straight line is the best for heavy weights, especially squats. Something something phyiscs something something tall buildings are straight, then some shit about force and energy, I'm not a scientist, you can put two and two together and it makes more sense..

but SS is different cause its basically AXBXA alternating and not as many assistance as that so it doesnt tire you out
when you have a 3 day split like that why put both on one day when you can just deadlift on pull?
56 min later 17010466 Anonymous
>>17010420
actually u do squats EVERY day
ad only one set of Deads 1x5 (after warm ups)
SS is meant as a STRENGTHENING program and nothing STRENGTHENS your body as much as doing SQUATS, end of story

If you've only been doing SS for 5 months, you should probably just shut up.
Low bar squats are safe if you keep your tightness.
What's NOT safe is adding 5-10 pounds to the bar every session. And squatting every workout is balls, too.
