2-SPLIT

Split training allows for a more intense workout of a specific body part, followed by several days of rest before training the same muscle groups again. In addition, it allows the body to lift heavier weights and do more sets. 

If you train at least four times per week, two split training routines will help you build muscle mass and increase strength.
