6-day PPL

Welcome to the 6-day Push Pull Legs split, here i will explain everything that you will need to know!

First let me tell you, how i structured this training plan.

You can see, that there is 6 different days. Each one of them is specifically focusing on a different part
of your body each time.

Even though, its called push-pull-legs, i recommend you to run it in a little bit different way. The best
approach in my opinion, would be to do: push-legs-pull. This way, you will give your upper body
more rest between the sessions!

Now let me show you when to take rest days, and in which order you should run this training plan.

The order goes like this:

PUSH1-> LEGS1-> PULL1-> PUSH2-> LEGS2-> PULL2

You can either take the rest day after 3 days in the middle of the week, or do 6days in a row, and
then take a one rest day.

PUSH1-> LEGS1-> PULL1-> REST-> PUSH2-> LEGS2-> PULL2

PUSH1-> LEGS1-> PULL1-> PUSH2-> LEGS2-> PULL2-> REST

Help
Always follow the order that the exercises are written in.

Definitely use different weight for different rep ranges, you always have to adjust. For example, if you
are doing a horizontal push for 5-8reps, you should always choose a heavier weight, than if you did it
for 8-12reps!

Below the name of every bodypart, you can see what type of exercise you are supposed to do, and in
the parentheses are example exercises that you should use, you can pick any of these exercises that i
included there, its up to you what you like, and what you have access to!

If you need any further assistance, or if something is not clear to you, feel free to join my discord, and
i will help you out!

Note
Always write down the weight, sets, and reps of the exercises that you did, so you can keep track of
your progression, this is very important!
