The Best Science-Based Workout Split To Maximize Growth (CHOOSE WISELY!)
The Best Science-Based Workout Split To Maximize Growth (CHOOSE WISELY!)
One of the biggest decisions you have to make when starting out in the gym is choosing what workout split (or “training split”) you’re going to use.
Or in other words, simply figuring out how you’re going to group your exercises throughout the week.
And although there isn’t one “best workout split” for everyone, certain muscle building splits have their advantages.
For example, we know that training a muscle at least 2x/week is superior to 1x/week.
This automatically makes the common bro split inferior to other higher muscle training frequency workout splits.
Training splits like the upper lower split, full body workout splits (“total body workouts”), and the push pull legs workout split train each muscle 2x/week whereas the bro split does not.
This not only helps better optimize protein synthesis but also enables you to get more quality sets done since your workout volume is spread out over multiple workouts.
