      SS is for beginners to max out CNS gains and get some noob hypertrophy at the same time before they move onto an intermediate program where they will indeed do ten rep sets with (relatively) light weights (but heavier than they would be if CNS gains had not been maxed first).

        you have no idea what you're talking about. There is no mechanism for light weights to drive hypertrophy since they don't present a stress strong enough to disrupt homeostasis. Getting a pump is not hypertrophy.

                Yeah no shit you can't linearly progress at that point without getting fat, you are supposed to use other progression schemes to keep progress going. LP does not work forever, because if it did we would all squat 500+ kg after 200 weeks of adding 5lb to the bar. But you can just move over to other progression schemes and keep progressing, and over time you will add significant amounts of weight to your lifts. It just takes longer since you're no longer a novice, that's all. LP is simply the fastest and most straight-forward progression scheme there is, which makes it ideal for novices, but garbage for everybody else because intermediates and beyond cannot add 5lb to the bar every week.

                308lbs is early novice phase for anyone who left their couch. 405 is "they've seen a gym," 500 is "he lifts," 550 is pretty strong, 600 is "know what he's doing." Beyond that they're probably on roids.

          gains are purely determined by reaching failure or very close to failure below 35 reps. 1-5 has certain adaptations, mainly training the neurological system to be able to recruit muscles better. 6-35 have different adaptations. Anything between 6 and 35 is exactly the same as long as you reach failure or get very close. I know you're a moron and don't know any of this though, so I expect nothing but moronation in response

            Your first sentence literally implies you can't go higher and that you would have to switch to high volume at light weights. Then you continue to argue with the other anon about how volume is the only driving force for progress afterwards.

        did you just learn about the nervous system? You sound like a child who just learned a new word. Starting Strength just builds a base. Learning the compounds and getting strong enough to start some dedicated lifting. I don't know what you think "maxing out CNS gains" is, but it sounds moronic.

        • 5 months ago
          Anonymous

          Well it's simple anon, the nervous system is what tells muscles to contract and in untrained people it isn't very good at doing that forcefully. CNS gains = your nervous system learning to recruit more motor units (that is a bundle of muscle cells attached to a nerve ending that contract together when the nerve fires) and to send more forceful signals without getting fatigued (one pulse makes the muscle twitch i.e. contract and then immediately relax; for the muscle to keep contracting it has to receive multiple pulses and this drains the nerve of energy).
          It's always funny when you simplify things for midwits and it makes them think they know better.

      what if you actually want to look like you lift after finishing your begginer program? do you have to do strength routine with low reps?
      increasing strength in 10 rep range doesn't count? are perceived gains with high reps subjective?

        Not really sure what you're asking. After SS if you want to continue strength training you would normally do something that mixes volume and intensity like 5/3/1 BBB.

            I think people who want that usually do the same lifts as powerlifters but at higher rep ranges, and use double progression (increase reps e.g. from 5 to 10, then increase the weight and start again at 5 reps)
