Episode 3485:
Christian Finn of Muscle Evo compares full body training with the upper lower split to settle which workout structure builds muscle best. He explains why total weekly training volume matters more than the split itself, and how your schedule, experience level, and recovery should drive the fitness routine you choose.

Quotes to ponder:
"For an identical training volume, which I'm defining here as the number of hard sets you do over the course of a week, the average lifter will see similar gains with both a full body and upper lower split."
"With an upper/lower split, your energy and focus is distributed across fewer muscle groups, which usually makes for a higher quality workout."
"A resistance training program that's optimal for muscle growth isn't optimal if you don't do it."
