Should I hit muscle groups at the same time or space them out in between workout?

[luckyduck51]

When I did PPl I spaced out muscle group exercises so they had time to rest I don’t know if that’s optimal though

Chest
Shoulder
Tri

Like that.

Should I space them out like that or should I hit them at the same time?

but I’m switching my split to UL and don’t know how to program it.
Need optimally programmed UL spilt please

base it off what ever you want to grow, so if u wanted bigger biceps do them first in your workout

generally people will couple the exercises of each muscle group together, id say the primary reason for wanting to do that and not what you're currently doing in your example is that shoulder and tricep exhaustion will impede chest work (you want the chest to be the limiting factor or "point of failure", exhausting other muscles will make this less likely)

the same case with tricep fatigue potentially impeding shoulder movements (atleast pressing, not an issue for fly movements)

Run PPL,U/L, and then arms on the 6th day. One rest day. I train whatever muscle is the most underdeveloped out of the group first.

it is generally a good idea to do this but it's not optimal how you done it with PPL.
for example (if im understanding it correctly), you're doing a triceps exercise and after you move to a chest exercise.
during bench press and dumbbell chest press, triceps will still work and take significant tension.

it's really hard to program a PPL split with limiting fatigue like you said, so it's better to make a switch to Upper Lower / FB (there's more regions to work, so you can have more fun with it)
in FB you can do bench and then hit legs so the top of your body rests.

I have wanted to switch to UL for awhile but never did because I didn’t know how to really program it and didn’t want to. How should I program it and what order should I put the muscle groups?

do 1 exercise for every function.
for example lats have mainly two functions - adduction and extension so in this case you're going to do 1 exercise for shoulder extension(lat pulldown) and 1 exercise for shoulder adduction (some kind of row where you have your elbows close to your body).
for triceps and biceps you're fine with doing 1 for each. (triceps just a regular extension on a cable and for biceps i like to do recline curls, but you're fine doing preachers)
for chest you're honestly fine with doing just a press/fly but if you want to maximize it (and have enough time) do a movement where you have your arms tucked in and one where you don't (i do a machine fly and a chest press on a machine that forces me to tuck my arms)
(theres the machine if interested)

shoulders, you could isolate each head (so 3 exercises) but don't have to. rear delts already work a lot in back exercises and other movements.
do a shoulder press and a lateral raise (preferably cuffed on a cable).

for lower day,
quads - leg extensions and if want to maximize some kind of squat pattern.
hams - leg curls and rdls/sdld
adductors and abductors - just do them on a machine
calves - any raise is fine, emphasize the lower part of the raise, dont have to go all the way up.
