Training Splits

When it comes to working out, structuring your training sessions is key to achieving your fitness goals. One of the most popular methods of organizing your workouts is through training splits. A training split is a way of dividing your workouts into different groups, each of which focuses on specific muscle groups or movements. There are many types of training splits, let's look at a few examples: push/pull/lower, upper/lower, and "bro splits."

Push/Pull/Lower Split: This type of split divides your workouts into three categories: pushing exercises (chest, shoulders, triceps), pulling exercises (back, biceps), and lower body exercises (legs, glutes, calves). This split is great for those looking to hit each muscle group twice a week, with a focus on compound exercises.

Upper/Lower Split: As the name suggests, this split separates your workouts into two groups: upper body (chest, shoulders, back, biceps, triceps) and lower body (legs, glutes, calves). This split is great for those who want to target each muscle group twice a week, with an emphasis on isolation exercises.

"Bro Splits": This type of split dedicates each day of the week to a specific muscle group, typically chest, back, shoulders, arms, and legs. This split is popular among bodybuilders and those looking to build muscle mass quickly. However, it may not be the most efficient way to train for overall fitness.
