Split Decision: A No-BS Guide to Full-Body, Upper/Lower, and Push/Pull/Legs Splits for Lifters Who Want Results, Not Hype

Most lifters stumble into routines they don't understand, copy influencers with no context, and burn out running splits that look good on paper but fall apart in real life. Split Decision cuts through the noise with a brutally honest breakdown of the three dominant training splits in modern lifting: Full-Body, Upper/Lower, and Push/Pull/Legs (PPL).
This isn’t a motivational manifesto. It’s a tactical guide for lifters who want real muscle, real strength, and real sustainability.
You’ll learn why Full-Body training isn’t just for beginners, why Upper/Lower refuses to die, and how PPL became Reddit’s favorite—and how it breaks down in the real world. From hypertrophy to strength, from programming logic to psychological fatigue, this book dissects what makes a training split actually work.
Whether you're a natural lifter trying to build mass, an intermediate stuck in a rut, or a seasoned veteran tired of recycled advice, Split Decision gives you the tools to evaluate, adapt, and progress without guesswork. You'll also uncover the myths that refuse to die, the mistakes most lifters repeat, and how to shift intelligently between splits as life and goals evolve.
Built for lifters who want clarity—not clichés—Split Decision is the final word on how to organize your training with purpose, not hype.
