Been doing starting strength for a while and I’m tired of it. I get slightly stronger but that doesn’t really mean much to me. I’d like to see some physical changes in my body. But there’s so much crap out there it’s hard to choose where to move on from here. I’m eyeing 5/3/1 right now but I prefer not to read like 50 pages before being able to lift some weights.

    Seconding 5/3/1, also getting at least the base book and giving it a read through. Took me up to a 1060 total on the big 3 lifts @185 lbs before life got in the way and I took a hiatus from lifting.

    The most important thing is that you are consistent and lift 3-4x per week. Pick a few accessories, follow the program, and you'll be good for a very long time.
