Hi
Been lifting for well over 25 years. Done basically every sort of split, bro split, push pull leg, full body, high frequency powerlifts, 5-3-1 etc.
Despite having lifted for so long, I still get very sore and my most responsive and most genetically advantaged parts tend to get the sorest. I'm in mid 40s and also do BJJ recreationally. I have decided to try a split where each major muscle group is trained once every 9 days. I have responded to from major muscle 3x a week to once a week but lately been finding higher frequency is too much for my joints along with BJJ even if the volume is adjusted in each workout.
Anyone train with much 9 or more days rest between parts on a regular basis. Id be doing a 4 way split over 3 days of training per week. Interested to hear what people's experiences have been. Thanks.
