2860: Short Daily Workouts vs. Full Body 3x a Week: Which One Actually Gets You More Results?
Short daily workouts or full body sessions 2–3x a week — which one actually gets you better results? Sal, Adam, and Justin break down both approaches with equal total volume, so it's a fair fight. They cover why daily 15-minute workouts tend to produce more total volume over time, build stronger habits, and put less stress on the body — plus the real cons, including why they don't work well if you're commuting to a gym. Then they make the case for full body training: more enjoyable for some, better for strength stamina, and a solid fit for gym-goers. Sal also shares how he hit a personal deadlift PR at 45 years old training only two lifts a day.
