Any of you guys have shoulder issues ? I think I’ve been having shoulder impingement problems. Hurts/sore in the morning, gets better throughout the day.

Everyday
imo no one does em these days cause:
1. PPL is more mentally and physically pleasing/enjoyable/easier
2. PPL is whats been pushed in social media with the whole bro split movement as well
3. most people overdo it on fullbody so they cant recover fast enough to do it again on the day after lol
Would probably agree with this (except almost all of the PLers I know irl either do U/L or FB. Don't know any that do bro splits and haven't really met anybody that does PPLs either).
All of the scrong folks I know do UL or FB. All of the fukkbois I know do SL5x5 or bro splits and have no gains. All the BBers I know do brolic splits and have only decent (at best) Big 3 numbers.
Today I seent my mans who I put on this mess. He like dude, wtf, I've been here over an hour already.Been sick all week last week. Started nSuns 5/3/1 after seeing it here and doing some research. On day 2 Squat/DL. Haven't been this gassed in a long time. Feels good man...
Whats the difference between a bro split and a brolic split? Most real bodybuilders (on gear) would put up impressive strength numbers if they trained for it.
The reason those guys have no gains is because their diets are **** and they have no idea what progressive overloading is. I got stronger than just about everyone in here and I literally followed the 5x5 template for like 3 years so it works for some.
Most serious powerlifters do custom programs from people that know what they're doing, the programs I gave out in here for free were customized to me by Matt Disbrow who I hired as a coach and has totaled over 2100 I believe.
Never said 5x5 doesn't work, m'lord. Just said I see a lot of fukkbois doing it and making no gains. I started off on 8ish months of SL myself and was already outlifting most of the fuktards I see in the gym by that point, so I know it works.
A brolic split is more unconventional than the average bro split. Instead of a straight arms/chest/back/no legs type of split, I'll see dudes throw in another muscle group but their frequency for the week is usually 1x/week for everything except bis/tris. Not pure UL, not a FB, and not really a PPL.

Sick all last week? Your body is not yet ready. Me and @SupremeBeing5 will send flowers.
If you want a more athletic body, full body twice a week isn't a bad thing. It is actually more advisable, due to the fact that you must work on other things that are sports skill based. Some people simply want to remain fit, looking like dudes/chicks in Men's Health/Women's Health, rather than the dudes in Muscle and Fitness.
Shannon Sharpe looks fantastic, especially since you know that he was a top level athlete. LeBron looks great, especially since you know that what he has, actually does something. In shape, Serena Williams destroys the stereotype that only skinny white girls are fit. At times it is truly about feeling good, and then being able to do all the things that you want to do, as opposed to simply want to impress people with your look.
Tomorrow's a rest day at least
99% of the population that even takes working out seriously aren't gonna look like hall of fame athletes from only doing full body twice a week though
Those guys have goat level genetics and would look ripped up no matter what they did. When you're that tall its a whole lot easier to add lean muscle mass with minimal fat and look "fit".
All about your own goals though, no one way is right for everyone.
I do not really think that it is about looking like a hall of fame athlete, because looks do not dictate athleticism, nor the ability to compete even at a recreational level. The whole point of training for the recreational level is to have goals to point toward, look forward to in regard to performance. The closer you get to that goal, the better you will look and feel. It could be something as simple as walking a few miles a day as a senior, while also participating in Tai Chi for balance and awareness. For the weekend warrior, training twice a week with full body at least allows for the ability to be ready for impact and then enhancing possible recovery. The goal should be injury prevention, then just trying to have fun out there. People who are driven by look, through look, almost never achieve their goals. However, if you train for function, attempting to attain better performance in each movement, whether it is cardio, strength training, flexibility, you will look and then feel better, getting closer toward your goals. It is like analytics being used in sports today.
The bodybuilding mentality in regard to look and gym performance has never been the optimum in regard to overall health. But if you look to athletes, people who actually use what they've earned in the gym and through practice, that is far more attainable, realistic, and healthy for the average individual who is looking to make changes at a gradual and more realistic pace.
