    Every other source I've seen talks about PPL in a Monday-Friday manner. As dumb as it sounds, hearing it in a seven day manner instead has opened up a lot of possibilities in my mind. Definitely subscribing, great video

    Or even if you schedule 4 working days - Monday/Push, Tuesday/Pull, Wednsday/X, Thursday/Legs, Fraiday/Push, Saturday/X, Sunday/X, (then next Monday/Pull, so you basically rotate it) - you also hit the 2 days/week per muscle group

    • @mindbodyprime
      @mindbodyprime  2 роки тому +2

      Nothing wrong with doing full body. For hypertrophy (muscle building) I think it’s better to hit the muscle harder especially if you’re getting more advanced, so something like push pull legs allows for more volume. But since you need more recovery days full body sounds like a good fit

      that's a good question. since you're a beginner, it really depends on where you're starting from. Some people can start doing 8 exercises in each workout, others might only be able to do 4 exercises. Lifting weights is good for losing weight, but adding cardio will make everything happen quicker. I would need to know more about your goals to give you more specific advice
