More than expected strength gains

As expected muscle gains

This is my favorite beginner program. I ran this for about a year with added isolation . This helped my specialize in squats making it about the same as my deadlifts. I highly recommend this program for the first 3 maybe 6 months cause this will not make you jacked. My personal journey is stronglifts 1 year, madcows 9 months, 531 BBB for 16 months then my own for the rest of the time. 4 years total experience lifting. 500 squat, 550 sumo deadlift, 335 bench. 18 inch arms, 45 inch chest, 205 lbs. 44 years old. And I look like I lift with clothes and without clothes
