Thread: Upper/Lower split question

you can do it either way. typically if I squat on one day i will deadlift on the other but sometimes I will do them on the same day and then do something else on the other day. as long as you account for your volume.

With a setup like that, I would probably opt to put them on different days. I have done them together many a times, but usually when I do them the same day I alternate which one starts the workout.
