    I do an upper/lower split. M/W/F upper, T/Th lower. It's not optimal for a beginner like me, however my primary consideration is that I don't want to be sore or tired on my weekend hikes, so it is what it is.

    Essentially, more information about yourself, including goals and lifting experience, would help to answer this question.

    So I’ve been lifting for about a year and a half now and my goals are to just keep getting bigger and stronger as much as I can really.

    At that point, I'd move to an upper/lower split. That way you'll have move time to recover between lifts but still hit each muscle group more than once a week.

    Okay thank you for your input

    I like to do every muscle twice a week right now,I don’t think you can hit each muscle enough doing a full body .

    Yeahh see iv'e been doing split training for over a year now and I think I'm starting to think the same, I feel that I could be doing more effective training then my current split. that's why I wondered weather I should switch to full body 3 times a week or something.
