Why bro splits get so much hate lately?
inb4 If you're a natty bro splits are pointless.
>>

Usually not enough volume per week in a bro split

If you're a natty bro splits are pointless

Muscle protein synthesis is complete within 48 hours of training. You are wasting days of potential muscle growth by not training every muscle again.

People that do bro splits as naturals are just fucking around in the gym and wasting time.
>>
>>35286670
because they ARE pointless if you are natty.

you can only handle so much volume and still recuperate, so adding in more volume than you could get from a fullbody or U/L or P/P/L is retarded.

muscle frequency a shit.

PPL is a bro split right
>>
The memes are strong in this thread
>>
>>35287641
No. In a PPL, if you're doing it properly, you are hitting each muscle group more than once every 7 days.
>>
6 day brosplit you still hit all muscles twice a weak atleast?
>>
>>35287825
>chest day
>arm day
>shoulder day
>back day

I'd throw in leg day, but most brosplitters don't do them. If you never take rest days and ignore half of your body, then you can do a bro split and usually get twice per week frequency.

>>35286670
holy fck, just fucking eat and lift untill you're tired, gg ez
fcking memers

LOL, science says otherwise.
Synthesis is ongoing for up to 14 days you moron.
>>
>>35287995
Why do you work out your two biggest upper body muscles on the same day while giving something as small as shoulders a day to itself?
>>
>>35287994
>combining chest with back
>having a separate 'arms' day

you are retarded m8

I just switched to one.

My gymbro who is also a trainer there, got me on his program. He holds state titles in bench and diddy in his weight class, so I figured his would be the way.

Holy fuck I cannot keep up, he does some stuff in the 20 rep range. I am used to autistically progressing with Texas method or 5x5, I might just switch back, I am a little bitch and can't keep up. Also I am not thoroughly convinced anything 12+reps is helping.
>>

>I am not thoroughly convinced anything 12+reps is helping.

Anything below 65% RM does fuck all for me, so I guess you are quite right.
Your buddy is probably on gear.
>>
>>35288127
>Also I am not thoroughly convinced anything 12+reps is helping.

yeah, cos no strongman competition ever has people lifting for more than 5 reps.

fuck, this board is full of idiots.
>>
I've been lifting for 8 years. I've done powerlifting, strength training, Olympic training, bro splits, hell I've even done calisthenics.

One thing is for sure, brosplits get you looking the best, especially if you get your body fat to 10% or less.

>strength training
Wow, you've even done STRENGTH TRAINING?

You must really have done it all!
