Anyone give arms a separate day? I'm usually a push/pull/legs type of person, but switching it up to a 4 day split. It's going to be push-pull-arms-legs and see how it goes with just an arm day.

Obviously depends on details/volume, but IMO a dedicated arms day goes best with a bro split or similar. Arms day after pull sounds less productive than doing them on your push/pull days even if you want to prioritize them a little. But give it a try if it's something you're interested in, never know for sure.

How long does an arm session really take? 20-30 minutes? Isn't it better to add arms to the push & pull days?
4 day split is prime for upper-lower, even FB 4 days. Arms included.2020 maxes

Training arms, well biceps, is hella boring. Just plug them into your existing days. It isn’t like they are gonna get bigger just because you throw some isolations at them, they will grow as the surrounding musculature does.

I just do that **** on my gpp days..
Barely programmed, just do a bit and casually track it.
Yesterday I did a 7min density set of inverted rows, 7min super set of curls & exts and 150 pull a parts.
20mins and Done.
Adding an arm day will certainly add a little size.. If its more volume than you where doing.
But it sounds like you traded a Full push day from pplpplr for an arm day. Thats a DROP in volume.
Unless you only did ppl once a week, then its definitely an increase in workLast edited by MyEgoProblem; Today at 08:41 AM.
