The best split for gymcels

More fatigue

So why go to failure if we want less fatigue?

1 set 3 or 4 times a week, that’s what you’re not understanding

Everyone I know who gets results in the gym in the real world does higher volume split routines. Literally nobody does fullbody and gets results irl, despite what youtube makes you think. I tried it for a few months and got burnt out fast, could inly put significant effort into first 2 exercises, after that everything went to crap. Just stick to what works irl and your jacked friend is doing honestly no need to reinvent the wheel. Wish i knew that earlier

Full body is shit, doing 1 set per muscle group too, and reps should be 12+ assuming muscle growth is your goal

Why would 12 reps for hypertrophy be superior than 4 or 8 lmao

 

[Kingmalation]

I

explain to me how you know that 2 sets isnt going to give you more of a muscle growth stimulus than 1 set

It would, but it’s left stimulative than the first one, and the total generates enough fatigue which increases the recovery time past the point of being able to train every 2 days and be recovered

I don't doubt that full body 3x week with 1-2 sets close to failure per muscle may be the best split for growth.

But as long as someone is consistently getting stronger in the 4+ rep range, training to/close to failure, and uses good exercises and form, they will attain their best physique. Full body isn't necessary to accomplish that.

The principles of low volume, training with intensity, and prioritizing strength are however, the true magic for natty lifters. If you're still doing over 10 sets per bodypart per week, and focusing on volume over progressive overload in 2024-2025, you're hampering your progress

I like it’s simple to keep track off but I would do two sets if I where you I personally do 3 sets to failure good exercises depending if your beginner or not for beginners or people who can’t stick to shit

You won’t be able to fully recover from 2 or 3 sets in only 48 hours
