When Mark Rippetoe designed Starting Strength, he made it in a way that would allow the typical scrawny guy to bench 225lbs, squat 315lbs, and deadlift 405 lbs in just 6months. It wasn't intended for everyone. What I mean by that is that it focuses more on improving strength, rather than building a great physique. I hate how people try to shove this routine down your throat as a beginner. Sure it's a good routine, if you want to be a fat cow at the end of those 6 months. But if you're looking to build a great physique, a 3 or 5 day split will suffice.

If you're just looking to become a power lifter or are training for football or any other contact sport and are looking for strength, this is the routine for you. (If you're willing to look like shit)

What you learn from these pictures:
1. Do not touch power lines.
2. Do not idle around suspiciously in the middle east, else MURRICA will shoot you down
3. There is nothing you can do to keep some asshole in a car from running you down.

you only look like shit if you follow everything rippletits said to the T, including gomad, including eating like 4k+ calories a day

besides, imo, having a strength base is always better instead of doing a hypertrophy routine from the get go and losing your noob gains on looking strong but not actually being strong

Starting strength is legit as fuck if you want to be a 35% BF repulsive power lifter.
