DO NOT SPLIT YOUR ROUTINE - DO NOT WORK YOUR BODY ON SUCCESSIVE DAYS

     Many bodybuilders practice a split routine. The reasoning is that training their upper body on one day and lower body on the next day allows them additional time to work each muscle group "harder". HIT advocates fervently believe that this is NOT the case.First, split routines lead you to believe that *more* exercise is better exercise.

    Remember HARDER exercise is better. And if you train harder you MUST train briefer, not longer. You cannot train hard for a long period of time. Thus, out of physiologic necessity, people who use a split routine have to reduce the intensity of their exercise which leads to less growth stimulation.
