You have a good basic beginner program and I would encourage you to continue this actually

You learn great basic exercises

And I honestly dont see you doing 3 x 15 chin ups

That's just what was written, I currently do 10 chin ups, but that's increasing quickly.

forgot that pull ups were different than chin ups

pull ups suck man :(

I can maybe pump out 3 x 8

So that routine is enough work?
I feel like I need to be doing a forgetlot of stuff, but that doesn't look like a lot.

Oh, hey. 30 minutes in the gym is normal, right?

Right now I'm doing
Monday
3x5 Squat
3x5 Bench press / Press (Alternating)
Chin-ups: 3 sets to failure or add weight if completing more than 15 reps

Wednesday
3x5 Squat
3x5 Press / Bench Press (Alternating)
1x5 Deadlift

Friday
3x5 Squat
3x5 Bench Press / Press (Alternating)
Pull-ups: 3 sets to failure or add weight if completing more than 15 reps

Uh sounds like you took starting strength and took out the deadlifts every time and added pullups and chinups. I wouldn't recommend that I would recommend adding those later.

Workout A
3x5 squats
3x5 bench press
1x5 deadlift

Workout B
3x5 squat
3x5 overhead press
5x3 powercleans

I've found the hardest part of starting weight lifting is not doing too much. Just keep it simple build up slow, not only will it be much easier but the gains will actually be much greater. Stick to low weight with proper form and don't add any isolation exercises for at least 2-3 months. Don't switch off this program until you find yourself stalling like 3 times in a row.

It's "Practical Programming"
I really like Deadlifting so keeping that in is great.

Practical Programming is Starting Strength.

Also why don't you do the onus wunsler version if you like deadlifts and chinups. It gives the best combination of both.

[Hiiro326]

I never said it wasn't Starting Strength. I said it was Practical Programming.

Aren't we both right? o:

Bump because this is falling onto 2nd page
Any tips for aesthetic quads with a lot of mass, Vis?

[RagnaTheBroedge]

the heaviest dumbbells in my house are eight pounds because everyone in my family is a baby so i have to use a bundle of railroad spikes as dumbbells
it works surprisingly well

[Otis Da HousKat]

finally signed up for my gym
i can deadlift 200 pounds max, but I am comfortable at 160
bench 80 ( :( )
squat 200
wooooo

I'm calling shenanigans on your form if these are true. No way you should be squatting more than your deadlift.
