Get through college asap and forget about your SMV for a while.

Don't commit to any woman until your late 20s and you'll be fine. Focus on your goals, which should not include a LTR.

HIIT will be your best friend after you do a decent length at stronglifts.

You're in college, you'll have the same superficial SMV as everyone else (roughly). Finish college, be confidence you'll pick up poon on the way.

You are fucking up big time if you're eyeing LTR right now. That's some bluepill buhhshiiiii right there.

Your SMV will raise with your personality and the more you discover and learn about yourself the more attractive you will become because you'll grow into a confident person. It probably wouldn't hurt to figure out how to budget a little fashion style too.

But in College, your SMV will be based on physique, social status (how you get along with people), your personality, and that'll pretty much be it. Easiest terrain in the world to slay.

No one cares about your money, your car, or any of that shit since people will just assume it was gifted and you didn't earn it. That shit doesn't get seriously evaluated until later on in life.

I can either: Stick to being a Full-time student & attend intersession in breaks to get credits faster. or Become a part-time student & get a part-time job; getting less credits but have become able to save up money for a car.

Or you can go get a paid internship in a field you are interested in. Go to career services. Talk to your professors.

What programs can I do after Stronglifts to get my body to look strong, along with still being strong?

I have been lifting for 8+ years non stop. Programming doesn't matter. Consistency and progression (TUT, Rest Period, Weight, Total Weight, Reps, etc,) and is what TRULY matters. Therefore do whatever program that keeps your ass going to the gym. My personal opinion, stronglifts is ok, will teach you the basics but can set up some imbalances in the long run. Better off taking other approaches (e.g. Arnold encyclopedia program).

is there any concrete path to improving my SMV?

Yes. Having a college degree. Being well read. Getting a good career. Having life experiences. Being passionate about things. These are all things that take time to achieve. "Raising SMV" is a continual process.

Full time school and work bruh.

Lift weights, read books, approach girls.

All the same shit, but once you have a good paying career you'l havel 4 years of expierence under your belt with all the other shit already.

In regards with stronglifts, run with it as long as you are making progress. One word of advice is to throw in some accessory work for your hamstrings and upper back. They will start to lag as the weights start increasing and will be your weak points.

I think most people will tell you to finish college quick as possible so you can move on to get a job... I don't disagree but I went the other route and it worked out way better for me.

Last 2 yrs of college I went part time 12 units at night and then worked during the day. This allowed me to get work experience and allowed me to grad with only 9k in debt where I have friends who have 60-100k in debt because they borrowed money for EVERYTHING. Don't do that its so fucking stupid. Unless you are going to be a doctor or a lawyer or another garunteed high salary position, do not go into above 30k debt for college.
