  1. Push Pull Legs (6 days a week) Back can be sore after pull day and will limit leg day.

  2. Push Legs Pull This ensures a good leg day but messes with pull day.

  3. Pull Push Legs This feels like the most optimised of the three. Pull day is affected only once a week, as opposed to twice a week for the other two routines.

    Poor or disrupted sleep quality, feeling tired all the time, decreased appetite, joint pain. Training hard is like digging a hole, every stimulus you incur digs a bit deeper and recovery helps you refill the hole.

    Of course, the best split is the one you enjoy and allows you to be consistent. :)

      I have never felt sleep disturbances. I have felt tired but I think it is because of caloric deficit. I have felt that joints are strained at times.
