Do you really need to do dedicated 'leg' or 'arm' days? (lemmy.ca)

I've been going to the gym for a few months, still feel like a noob tho.

I track what exercises I do, weight & reps, etc, and try to rotate between the different exercises I enjoy.

However I don't do leg-centric days or anything like that, I just try and do a variety each week and not go too long without exercising specific areas. Is that bad?

Exactly. Leg days are by far my longest workout for the week. It just takes so much time, especially if you're working a single leg at a time.

Also, you get a whole week for the muscle group to repair itself.
