Just started beginner phase 3, couple questions.

Training Q&A [Moderated]
1

For the sake of having shorter sessions I have decided to spread the work out over 4 days. (during phase 2 it has been hard for me to finish the workouts before I start work, and I have a hard time completing them in the evening) Is there anything wrong with doing the lower rep bench press the day after overhead pressing? I’m assuming there may be a minuscule performance decrease but not totally sure… or if it even matters.

Also is there anything wrong with doing my gpp rows and curls on non lifting days? meaning I would be doing some kind of lifting 6 days per week. Or is better to have a few total rest days each week? I do this at home so it works well for me.

My results have been great so far after a big layoff from lifting :slight_smile: Plan to jump into strength I after i’m done.

Thanks

WM,

I don’t think there’s a big difference between the same volume split up over 3 or 4 days or how you’re spreading things up, GPP or otherwise. The main thing is adherence. That said, I do like having a few full rest days per week, if possible.
