  4. Not bad. I'm using a 4 day split with my Bro
    Day 1: chest back and Biceps
    Day 2: legs hamstring shoulders and triceps. The day after s restday then we start again

  5. Great information on ALL types of routines!! I am old school and do the 5 day split. But, the other Splits seem super effective

  6. Your content is great, I have a question please for the 4 day or the 5 day split, Isn't better to do the back&biceps and chest&triceps exercices twice a week for better muscle growth?

  7. 3 Day Split Sets and Reps – Makes no sense, because you shoud work twice for a week the same group to get more results!!!
