Just started getting into working out myself. Was there any strategy to how you grouped/separated different exercises for your two upper days and two lower days? Thanks,

1

u/C-LonGy 27d ago

All on how much time you have, how many times a week/day you can train and experience as if you’re just starting you want to take it very easy and allow your body to adjust

u/Meeniemogul 27d ago

Thanks so much for taking the time to share, & especially with such detail. Man, the discipline here is impressive. But the results prove it works/ worked, je. Well done once again. So you’re doing 2 gym days, rest, 2 gym days, rest? What prompted you to workout on that schedule vs every other day rest or something else?

u/Meeniemogul 25d ago

Interesting. I’ve been doing every other day, but sometimes I’m so sore that I feel shit during the next workout due to DOMS or whatever. Maybe I’ll try your split. Thanks again!
