Title: split
Post by: david1947 on October 07, 2006, 09:49:30 PM

What do you guys think the best split for a natural bodybuilder for optimal mass? 5 on and 1 off  :4 on  and 1off : 3 on and 1 off. I have a medium speed metabolism.

IMO there is no ideal split... try many different splits for about a month at a time and track your progress and how you feel about each workout week.  decide what works best for you
