I get shin splints after long periods of inactivity cuz my lifestyle is sedentary...working a desk job n shit

If I go a few months without going to the gym or really challenging myself physically, I get shin splints without fail

but I also tend to 'run through them'...and after a few gym sessions that pain disappears. or I'd have to run miles before the pain comes back, versus when I first start going to the gym and feel shin splints immediately

Hmm maybe not too bad then. I'll try and adjust my running a little bit but hopefully you're right. I'm just chucking in 20-30 minute runs 4 times a week for now but I remember the pain I got in when doing karate. Because of how bad it got, I couldn't bounce on my toes and with no real teaching in how to kick or anything without being on my toes, I ripped my knee to shreds not pivoting on a kick all because of the shin splints.

It's weird cause I've been inactive since maybe September a bit but back then I was able to bounce on my toes no problem.

I would listen to Manhattan, he is a personal trainer and knows his stuff

If youre completely new to the gym, focus on 5 main lifts i.e. Squats, Deadlifts, Incline Bench Press, Rows (Not Grizz's boyfriend) and farmers walk. You dont need anything else especially direct arm work.. your arms will get trained through those movements.

Full body training 3-4 times a week instead of individual body part split is better according to my personal experience.

Eat in a 200 caloric surplus in regards to your TDEE (Calculate it here https://tdeecalculator.net)
^use myfitnesspal to track calories

For preworkout use coffee and citruline malate.. you dont need anything else especially the pre-mixed preworkout drinks you get at supplement stores. Citruline malate will you give an amazing pump while caffeine from coffee will give you the mental alertness.

but seriously though dont train one muscle a day... you are a natural lifter (Asssuming youre not on Overeem's horse meat or jon jones dick pills) and for a natural lifter, a muscle needs to be stimulated more than once a week for efficient growth

5x5, 4x8 and 5x6 are all good setxrep ranges.. just lift heavy on compound lifts instead of doing sissy ass bicep curls and pushdowns.
