4 day Split
Hi all,
I have a question for a 4 day split. As a 45 y/o with 20+ years of training under my belt (just saying I'm not a newb) I've been through a ton of splits and the one I found working out the best for me is the following.
Day 1: Chest/Triceps/Back/Biceps
Day 2: Legs ( quad, hams, calves), Shoulders.
Day 3: Reverse of day1
Day 4: Reverse of Day 2.
I am looking for some constructive feedback. I find Upper/Lower split way to taxing and lengthy in the Upper.
By the time I get to my shoulders I'm spent. Or if I do my shoulders first everything else suffers.
I want to train my shoulders properly and not as an afterthought either -a couple of exercises at least.
I've never seen this split - making me question my last few years of doing this more and more but I never asked for feedback either. So please give it to me gently and rough :)

Hi Alan,
If you are making great progress and still enjoy this split, don't change anything! While we (or science) may have recommendations on what can generally be better for training, you want to lean into your personal experience and current progress to help guide your changes. You are hitting your muscle groups at least twice a week and and spreading the volume throughout the week, so you are off to a great start.
