When to Switch Up Your Workout Split
from The GymGirl Podcast Hosted by Nwanneka Tesy
Welcome back to The Gym Girl Podcast! I’m your host, Nwanneka Tesy, natural bodybuilder and wellness competitor. Last week we talked about how to create a workout split that works for your body, mind, and goals. But once you’ve built that split, the next big question is: When should you change it? In this episode, I break down the key signs that it’s time to switch things up, including: •Why plateaus happen and how to recognize them 🛑 •The difference between pushing through vs. overtraining 💡 •When boredom is more than just a mindset issue 💤 •How competition prep splits evolve compared to lifestyle training 📊 I also share practical strategies to refresh your split without overhauling everything—like changing rep ranges, exercise order, or adding intensity techniques to spark new growth. 💡 The big takeaway: Your workout split isn’t meant to last forever. Progress comes from knowing when to adapt. As always, thank you for tuning in!
