Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started.
Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE:
If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point. [Reply]

I don't even know what the fuck that shit is but if I actually do have an issue with my liver the last thing I need to be doing is taking supplements and putting weird shit in my body [Reply]

They are used to keep your liver healthy when on gear.

Fuck no you don't.
Total vegan body cleanse.
I'm not shitting you. Best thing you could do for yourself. Just be smart with it and you will immediately notice how much better you are as a human being.
And you get to be a full on cocksucking prick to everyone at restaurants. It's nice. [Reply]
My trainer has let his guard down w/ me - I'm unleashed - I maxed out my weight, he's stepping me way up on weight, every time. Things are crazy - getting some nice definition in my biceps finally. Lots of fun. Tonight was mostly cable work - it was a bitch. [Reply]
I've been on a very strict diet for the last 4 months- lost about 30 pounds, and went from probably 18% bodyfat to about 9 or 10% bodyfat. Anyway, I'm wanting to incorporate some "normal" meals back into my diet once in a while but I'm a little scared it will make me ill to suddenly start eating things like dairy and cured meats. Anybody have any advice on how to introduce these things as once-a-week cheats without making myself sick? Silock, Aspengc8, penguinz? [Reply]

I don't think you'll suffer much from the cured meats.
Dairy, though, still wrecks me. Getting away from eating it on a regular basis really seemed to exacerbate the negative effect on my digestive tract when I do choose to eat it. The main culprits, for me, as whole milk and cream derivatives (ice cream) and softer cheeses. Hard cheeses don't bother me. When I want soft cheese, I go with goat's milk cheese, which doesn't bother me as much either. [Reply]
