How should you split your strength training week if you only have a few sessions? This clip explores practical weekly splits like a quad dominant lower day, an upper push pull day, and a posterior chain hinge day, while still keeping total body in mind. Stacy Sims breaks down why you do not need two hour gym sessions, focusing instead on getting a strong neural stimulus to support muscle growth. She also explains when direct biceps and triceps work might matter, and why compound lifts like rows and squats already train smaller muscles through stabilization and pulling mechanics.
