    Please post a vid of your squat so we can take a look at it, my spidey senses are going off.

    If your form is solid, I'd recommend 531 for all it's worth, reset, rinse and repeat

    In theory, you could run 531 until you're 18. By then you should have gained enough muscular body weight to have a solid base. Then you can reevaluate based on your goals...

    300 calories over maintenance. Gained hardly any fat? 2.5 lbs of muscle a month? With hardly any fat gains? I'm sorry was i doing something wrong? I prob coulda kept running it and seeing more and more gains but that is my own mistake i can fess up to. I started 5/3/1. Way too confusing for me just being honest.

    There's really no reason to stop SS if you're making gains at this point. Run it till it stops working and then transition to 531. I ran 8 cycles of 531 before I reset.

    If you take your weight and multiply it by 22 you get about 3200 cals. That's what you should be shooting for. You WILL get bigger and stronger getting that many cals and following a good program to the letter.

    Proper nutrition is fundamental to gains...
