3 vs 4 is a question i get asked a lot

if you train 3 days, full body is probably the best way to spread your volume. if you train 4 days, an upper/lower split works really well.l

neither is better, the best split is the one that lets you train hard and recover and stay consistent

progression matters more than constantly changing exercises..pick a weight, build the reps up over time, then add weight and repeat. track what you lift so you’re actually giving your body a reason to adapt

if progress stalls it’s probably not the programme. protein, carbs, sleep, stress and how much other training you’re doing all matter

message me CARB if you wanna know how many carbs to eat roughly 💪🏻

more training isn’t always better. quality sessions + enough recovery will usually beat just doing more

if you wanna build bigger glutes then don’t skip your warm-up 🍑

i usually spend around 5–10 mins doing warm-up sets and activation drills before getting into my main lifts.

a good warm-up helps me:

1. increase blood flow and get my joints and muscles ready to train

2. prepare my nervous system for heavier loads so my working sets don’t feel like a shock

3. get mentally switched on and focused before i start pushing hard

4. practice the movement and technique with lighter loads before adding more weight

your warm-up shouldn’t leave you exhausted but it should get you feeling more prepared to perform better for main sets
