Here's a question /fit/
I can work out 3-4 days a week, would it be better for me to do a full body routine instead of a ppl for strength and aesthetics?
>>

If you want oversized legs I guess
>>
yeah that or upper/lower

i would hate full body because it would take too long and i wouldnt be fresh on anything except the first exercise
>>
>>40396049
If you can only do 3-4 days, do full body

PPL should only be done by people who can spare 6 days
>>
>>40396077
yeah and people who get a lot of rest

i did PPL for a long time and get a few overuse injuries i dont get anymore doing ul
>>
>>40396083
Yeah I injured myself too doing PPL, but all I had to do was cut out exercises that were overlapping and do more isolations. You have to be more careful on a PPL to ensure you dont overtrain a muscle group ever day, like traps which you often hit.

>>40396083
Could you give me an example of an upper/lower?
Because this seems wrong:
Upper: chest shoulders back biceps triceps abs
Lower :Legs
>>
>>40396107
yeah defniitely

i was trying to do heavy compounds on chest/triceps and legs which lead to fucking up

>>40396123
i do canditos intermediate program but i have no idea what your lifts are

its a great program
>>
>>40396123
That's not wrong, its literally what you do. U/L routines typically use a lot of compounds to hit the whole upper or lower body so you're not in the gym for hours
>>
>>40396049
candito's linear routine, just do strength/hypertrophy version
>>
>>40396123
For lower you can also do heavy core and lower back as well as legs and glutes.

And then light core with the rest of your upper body days.
>>
>>40396049
Just become a NEET and do a ppl

>would it be better for me to do a full body routine instead of a ppl for strength and aesthetics?

Everyone will have a different answer for this but the only true answer is that this is the most subjective thing in /fit/ness and only experimentation will teach you.

There are no major benefits to either when used for the same goals, literally whatever you enjoy more matters.

Personally I do full body because I find it much easier to stay consistent that way.
