switching to a 2 day split help

[eriaksi]

I'm looking to switch over to a two-day split from a four and five-day split. What do you guys recommend I do? Should I go upper and legs or should I go pull and push and incorporate push and pull into my leg days as well? Like on my pushing day I can do squats and on my pulling day I can do dead lifts, etc.

Bros, pulling off a two-day split is not a smart idea. You'll end up overtraining muscles you don't mean to so I would stash this idea.

You can actually do it but the key is splitting up your workouts into A, B, and C groups so you don't end up doing the same exercises too often.

I would transition to a three-day split, something like pushing, pulling, and legs. Those three would be a better option.

When it comes to training there is no one size fits all. Everybody is going to be a little different. Some people react well to high volume and some people don't.

If you're going to do a two-day split, I would do upper one day and lower the other but as others have said, alternate your training. Don't hit squats, for example, on every lower day.
