Some days I'll just have this nagging knee pain that prevents me from going as hard as I'd like. Even when there is no knee pain, one day of rest between heavy leg days just isn't enough. By the time it's leg day again, my thighs are deeply sore.
And on the other side, I find it difficult to cram all of my chest, triceps, biceps, etc. workouts in just two days per week.
Thankfully my upper body is overdeveloped compared to my lower body so I can afford to just maintain up top while I try to build down low but..
Idk. Those are my thoughts. Still early. It will prob just take some getting used to.

Upper/Lower can be done 4 days per week, so only need for legs twice in a week. Some also do Upper/Lower 3x per week so one workout each week floats to the next which has you do legs twice one week and then only once the next week, same with upper body. Legs three times a week is too much for anyone who isn't olympic lifting or powerlifting.
