stevesmi Head Mod Elite Moderator Sep 30, 2019 #3 you should balance it out, whether it is on the same day or not is another argument if you look around your gym most guys can push way more than pull and their posture reflects that. btw i prefer separating the day of push and pull

RickRock13 Da Pope Platinum Sep 30, 2019 #7 I like keeping mine separate. I work one major muscle group per day.
