Why This Plan?

An A/B full body split is the optimal structure for beginners (ACSM Guidelines 2021): maximum training frequency per muscle group with minimal time investment. The push/pull focus split ensures every muscle group is stimulated 2-3x per week — the optimal frequency for hypertrophy identified by Schoenfeld et al. (2016). Exercise selection fully utilizes his available multi-gym and supplements missing compound leg movements with bodyweight squats and glute bridges. RPE stays at 6-7 so a beginner can learn proper technique before intensity increases.
