Push/Pull/Legs (PPL)
Push/Pull/Legs is a split that separates training into pushing, pulling and legs.
Also known as: PPL
PPL scales well from 3 to 6 days: on 6 days it gives each movement pattern a frequency of twice per week; on 3 days, once.
It works best with higher frequency; on few training days, a full-body routine can deliver more by hitting each muscle more often.
