Push - Pull factor in strength training

[wild_wild_wes]

For you guys organizing your sessions taking Push and Pull into account- Do you like to mix/pair push and pull lifts in the same day, or do you think having separate push and pull days works best?

[Levinz11]

I've done both. Any split can work. The key is consistency not programming.

[AppalachianThunder]

I do bench press, standing overhead press, rope climbing and standing rows, all in the same day. I leave the gym feeling balanced.

[Shorts]

I push pull on separate days. Keeps my sessions short and quick to get into my workday.

For me it depends on how many days a week you are going.

For my 6 day a week conditioning I only do pull or push on a day.
For my 3-4 day a week strength I will do antagonist on the same day.

It depends on how you like to structure it. I am currently on my own program of push/pull every other day, three days a week. The last day is cardio.

Monday - Chest/back

Wednesday - Legs/shoulders (the only pull I do this day is deadlifts, abs too if you consider them a pull)

Friday - Bi's/Tri's

Sunday - Ruck or HIIT Cardio

[QuickStrike]

I'm currently doing an Olympic lifting/bro-lifts 3 days on/1 day off schedule.

It's basically like this:

Snatches- pull
C&J- push
Sn- legs
Rest
C&J- pull
Sn- push
C&J- front squat and arms
Rest & repeat

Each push or pull day varies a little bit but all muscle groups get hit twice every 8-9 days. I sometimes take a day off anywhere along the way depending on work, sleep, etc.. Since it's not a 7 day schedule anyway it doesn't make that big of a diff.

I push and pull in the same day, and whatever I do first (usually press), I do the exact opposite movement right after that, with the same number of sets, reps, and weight.

If I do barbell bench, then I follow it up with barbell rows. Same with dumbbells.
If I do overhead press, then I follow it up with pull-ups.

You could do either/or. I do it the way I do because I organize time to recover. I don't do a 7-day schedule but it roughly works out to 4 workouts a week.
