The Best Workout Split to Follow in 2026

If workouts have started to feel confusing or harder to stay consistent with, even though you genuinely want to take care of your body, or if you have ever chosen a plan that looked great on paper but felt impossible to keep up with once real life showed up, this conversation is for you.  In this episode, I walk you through how to choose the right workout split based on how many days you realistically train each week. We break down two-day, three-day, four-day, and five-day splits, what each option looks like, and who each one supports best. I also talk about workout length, weekly training load, recovery, and why doing less in a smarter way often leads to better results over time. This is about simplifying your approach so consistency feels possible instead of pressured. Here is what you will learn: • Why the most effective workout split is the one you can repeat • How to choose a plan that works with your real schedule • What two, three, four, and five-day splits actually look like • How weekly training load impacts progress and recovery • How to decide between 30-minute and 60-minute workouts If this episode resonated, you may also enjoy: Episode 566: What Most Women Get Wrong About Progressive Overload  If you want more from me, be sure to check out…  Follow me on Instagram: @juliealedbetter | @embraceyourreal | @movementwithjulie Movement With Julie | App: https://sale.movementwithjulie.com/ Macro Counting Made Simple Online Academy: https://www.macrocountingmadesimple.com/ Website: www.juliealedbetter.com
