Expert Insight: The Frequency Sweet Spot
Hitting a muscle twice a week is superior to once a week for 90% of naturals. **Protein Synthesis:** Muscle Protein Synthesis (MPS) only lasts 24-48 hours. If you wait 7 days to hit chest again, you spend 5 days "deflated." Upper/Lower keeps you in an anabolic state more often without the burning out that full body can cause.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I do 4 days in a row?
Not recommended. Try 2 on, 1 off, 2 on, 2 off.

Yes, many powerlifting programs (Westside) are variations of Upper/Lower.
