Sticky: Training for STRENGTH vs. SIZE MYTH: Low reps is for strength, high reps is for size.

Is 1 hour in the gym per workout enough? So thanks to the forum members I have found out that my work out routine isn't very good.

ULPPL to U/L I’ve been running a ULPPL for a couple years now and I’d say it’s been working decently well, but I wonder if I could get a little bit more out of a full-on upper/lower with equivalent or possibly even more volume.
