FULL BODY vs SPLIT TRAINING (Which Is Best?)

Are Full Body Workouts or Bro Split Training Routines better for muscle growth and fat loss? Find out exactly how often you should train each body part for faster results, and how many days per week you should workout in total based on your specific goals.

What’s better training your entire body each session or training different body parts on separate days. Which style of training will help you burn more calories each session leading to greater fat loss? How about if you’re trying to build muscle, will have a separate chest day, back day, and a leg day allow you focus more on those specific muscles you’re trying to target ultimately helping you build more muscle and grow? Or can full-body training be just as effective for muscle growth? I’m going to answer all of these questions today and you may be a little surprised by some of these answers… So let’s begin with the pros and cons of each starting first with split training which is also referred to as “a bro split” and it’s usually the default type of training used by bodybuilders. With a very basic split training routine, you’ll be setting up your workout in a way where you’re focusing on only one muscle or one muscle group per day. So a typical basic split training routine might look something like this: Monday would be your chest day. Tuesday your back day. Wednesday would be your leg day. Then Thursday would be shoulders and abs, and then Friday would be biceps and triceps. Then Saturday and Sunday would be your two off days, and you would start the whole routine again on Monday by going back to chest. With full-body training, on the other hand, it's pretty obvious that you’re going be working your entire body every single session. That means unlike the bro split training you’ll be working your chest, back, arms, legs, and abs all in one day. Usually, a typical full-body training routine will have you working out three times a week with one day off in between each session. So Monday, Wednesday, and Friday would be full-body workouts and then the rest of the week you would have off. So which one of these is better for building muscle? Well, if we want to build muscle and increase our lean body mass faster we want to focus on increasing the volume of our workouts and volume is measured by 4 factors. Intensity, which is the amount of weight you’re lifting, frequency, which essentially is how many days a week you're working for a muscle group, and then there’s, of course, the total amount of sets, and reps that you’re performing. Increasing any of these 4 factors will help you build more muscle. Now immediately you may notice an advantage that full-body workouts provide over a basic split training routine. They require fewer days at the gym, only 3 instead of 5, and you’ll be targeting all the muscles in your body 3 times a week every week as opposed to split training where you’ll only be targeting each muscle once a week. That means that we’ll be increasing that frequency factor much higher with full-body training, and even if you do spend an entire workout session really beating up your chest with a split training routine, it shouldn’t take longer than a maximum of 3 to 4 days for your chest to recover, which means you’ll miss out on potential muscle gains, since you’ll be waiting 7 days to work your chest again instead of 4 days. So to make up for this lack of frequency other bro split routines have grown in popularity like push/pull routines, opposing body part routines, and upper/lower routines. A push/pull routine focuses on grouping your push muscles like your chest, shoulders, and triceps separately from your pull muscles like back and biceps. A typical routine may look like this: Day 1: Chest, shoulders, and triceps, Day 2: legs and abs, Day 3: Back and biceps, and Day 4 you would take off. Then you would repeat which would allow you to hit each muscle group twice a week. Now With an opposing body part routine, you would group two opposite muscle groups like your chest and back into one workout and each time you perform a set for your chest you would immediately perform another set with no break for your back. By super setting exercises like bench press and rows together you can still lift heavy for each exercise since each exercise works different muscles, and you can save time by pairing two sets together. An example routine would be Day 1: Chest and Back, Day 2: Would be a Leg day where you would be pairing quad and hamstring movements together and Day 3...

    Good for you, keep it up! It's better to do it less efficient than not at all! Sure, you MIGHT get your perfect body a month earlier, but that does not matter if you give up on it. I'm doing the lower body/ upper body split and I do them at home. Maybe less efficient, but at least this is something I can keep up.

    I do upper/lower split. Wednesday and the weekend (Sat-Sun) are your breaks. This is just a comfort thing, as I work and like to have free time without feeling like shit. Doesn't matter how many times you go to the gym a week, building muscle, has always been about tearing up the muscles, then repair. Full body is nice, and while you go to the gym less, I noticed this is always the group of people who just want to stay toned and not gain mass. Obviously if you're not on roids, be flexible with yourself. I tend to tell people, if you just want to stay toned and not gain any mass, walking/treadmill plus some squats are honestly enough.

    Most naturals should be doing a full body routine. The idea that it’s a beginner program or less optimal than a split routine is bogus. When a natural weight trains they only need 2 hard sets per exercise to create a stimulus for progressive overload.

    I'm in my late-40s & had a hard time burning body fat on the split training so I switched to full-body in apr 2019. I feel alot better without the combined bulk of muscle & fat. I'm actually physically much stronger now where I'm able to lift so much more. I'm definitely sleeping harder. I also feel like I'm 18 again. The only downsides I've noticed is having to buy smaller clothes, my wife missing my "popeye arms" and experiencing at least one night a month of insomnia (don't ask me why but it started then). I'm not advocating one over the other. I'm just stating what full-body training has done for me.

    Full body over splits for me, especially since i can only go three times a week. Focusing around the compound exercises and mixing in different isolation exercises has really helped increase my strength and gains much more efficiently than when i was running a split. Also incorporating all the compound lifts and lifting heavy means that there is no need to do abs separately since they have already been worked.

    With my previous trainer, I used to do push/pull/legs each week, training 3 days a week. Each session was roughly 45-60 min. The focus would mainly be on the compound lifts with 1 or 2 other exercises mixed in. I liked how much stronger and more rounded this made my body feel, but I was missing other exercises. It felt weird going from 6-8 exercises down to 2-3, with a fourth one added in occasionally depending on the day. I also noticed I felt like I didn't have as much energy or endurance as I was used to only doing 3-4 exercises a day. With my most recent trainer who is a pro Olympian bodybuilder, it's been back to the bro splits working out 4x a week for about 60 min with 6-7 exercises though I usually take at least 75-90 min to complete my workout. This could just be because I go at a slower pace on my own. I think this regimen for me is more precise in building and hitting each muscle group and better at burning fat for me. It really does train each muscle to exhaustion so that week of recovery is vital. My muscles often feel at least a little sore or tight going into the next week of workouts. I feel each muscle gets a great pump and is not underutilized. With my previous trainer, I felt like some muscles often biceps or triceps would not feel a good pump. I did like the push/pull/legs split though. With another trainer, we started out this way but after discussing, we decided a fourth day would be best to separate out chest and shoulders so we could focus on those separately allowing the chest time to recover before we hit shoulders. But when we did push/pull/legs, we did about 6-8 exercises each session. This I think is my preferred format for push/pull/legs as I feel a great pump in each muscle. On the other hand, this push/pull/legs regimen also trains each muscle to exhaustion, leaving muscles feeling very sore after training during the week. I felt the third day, and it often hit me hard.

    Last year I had a coach who spent six years playing running back in the NFL. His routine was a three-day full-body circuit which turned-out to be phenomenal for me. Monday was the heavy day with a 1 rep max for chest on the final set, all other muscle groups were all 7 reps but as heavy as possible with increasing weight each round. Wednesday all sets were reps of 15 with weight adjusted, should just be able to complete 15 reps. Friday all sets were reps of 10. We'd start with chest, immediately move to biceps, immediately move to shoulders, immediately move to back, immediately move to triceps, immediately move to legs. One set of 25 sit-ups or crunches. Couple of minutes off and back through the circuit, up to four rounds. The limited resting between muscle groups kept my lungs in the game while at the same time increasing strength. I got pretty strong on that routine, I also burned a ton of calories every session. It was a killer getting used to it, though, and he had to prod me along in the beginning. First few weeks i'd finished at an hour and fifteen minutes, after that I was able to finish in 45 minutes to an hour depending upon my energy. Was probably the best routine I learned but it was hard in a gym where I had to share benches and barbells. But it was this routine that taught me about circuits and full-body routines. I always thought that circuits were for conditioning and weight loss, but now I know differently. I like working everything all in one session, that way if I miss a day i'm not all screwed-up and imbalanced, i'm not a pro athlete, afterall and can't always get to the gym :) And again, burn a TON of calories.

    Great video. I think it comes down to personal preference as well as your experience in lifting. I have trained traditionally for almost 15 years (hypertrophy / split routines) - push / pull, upper and lower, etc... Now I prefer full body workouts. While I do believe that fat burning is almost equal in both (if you incorporate drop sets and super sets, etc.) I believe full body has a clear advantage here - its not just fat burning but its forcing your neuromuscular system to adapt to various movements and exercises.
