If you happen to be fortunate enough to have the time to be able to train in this fashion, it could prove extremely beneficial. We all know just how difficult it can be to add quality muscle mass to our frames, no matter how much we tweak our diets and step up our intensity in the gym.
When it comes to building muscle, most people tend to pair up two body parts per training session, which again is usually all down to a lack of free time.
Even if you enjoy training in this way but find that you’ve stalled and have hit a plateau, following a 5 day split could be exactly what you need to shock your body into some much-needed new muscle growth so that you can begin piling on the muscle and enjoying your time in the gym.
Here we’ll be taking a look at a few benefits of 5 day splits, things to consider before starting any new training program, before providing a sample program for you to try the next time you’re in the gym. So, without any further hesitation, let’s look at ways of getting you bigger and more muscular.
