Description

Most people spend way too much time trying to find the perfect workout split, but the name of your split isn’t what builds muscle. The real progress comes from the inputs you put in each week. In this episode, Marianna and Tony break down how to choose the right training split for you based on your goals, schedule, and recovery. You’ll learn how to line up your volume, frequency, and intensity so your training actually moves you forward instead of keeping you stuck. Like every episode of Fitness Stuff, it’s all based on research and facts, simplified for everyone.
