Description

For this week’s podcast episode, I discuss the first few steps to creating the perfect workout split. Creating the perfect workout split for bodybuilding can significantly enhance your results. Here are detailed tips discussed on today’s episode:

1. Understand Your Goals

Muscle Gain: If your main goal is to build muscle, focus on resistance training with a mix of compound and isolation exercises.

Fat Loss: If fat loss is a priority, incorporate higher-intensity workouts and consider a caloric deficit while maintaining protein intake.


2. Frequency of Training

Beginner: 3-4 days a week, focusing on full-body workouts initially.

Intermediate/Advanced: 4-6 days a week, allowing for splits that target specific muscle groups.


3. Choose a Split Routine

Upper/Lower Split: Alternate between upper body and lower body workouts. This is effective for 4 days a week (e.g., Upper on Mon/Thurs, Lower on Tue/Fri).

Push/Pull/Legs Split: Focus on push (chest, shoulders, triceps), pull (back, biceps), and legs. This can be done 5-6 days a week.

Body Part Split: Target specific muscle groups on different days (e.g., chest on Monday, back on Tuesday, etc.). This allows for focused work on each muscle group.
