There is no reason to not do PPL. It gives you the best gains
PPL is King

Aside from once a week brosplits and machine splits it's unironically and objectively the worst programm

PPL is retarded. Doing your bench presses and shoulder presses on the same day is dumb as shit. Once you hit one of them hard you'll be too tired to hit the other hard enough. This will lead to separating chest and shoulders into different days which at that point you might as well do a traditional brosplit.

The six day bro split is king

Yup and I don't care
Daniel Evans
First push day of the week, focus on chest with a few sets of shoulder pressing, second push day focus on shoulders with a few sets of bench. How hard is that
Luis Garcia
If you only press twice a week you'll have sub optimal upper body gains
nothing wrong with benching and pressing in the same day; what matters is the fatigue you induce, not the level of relative intensity

You really think you can goad me into doing a trick like that?

the first part of my post was criticising a ppl you fucking retard
>what's wrong with training high intensity only once a week. it's not that hard
volume is significantly more important than intensity

>low frequency
6 days a week and working every muscle group twice per week is not low frequency
>high volume
Which is how you make gains
>arbitrary cut off (chin ups, deads, power cleans, ...)
Don't know what that even means
>doing a whole day leg only
That's why you do abs on leg day
Jackson Barnes
>6 days a week and working every muscle group twice per week is not low frequency
frequency is not how many times you work out a week total, it's just many time a muscle or movement is worked. 2x a week is average frequency
Aiden Cooper
been doing push/pull 3x/wk ever since i decided i was a geezer
do trap bar deads on push day and maybe something like a hack squat or front squats and you don't need a day for legs in the rotation. legs count as push for all but hamstring curls
easily the best workouts. but i would not recommend them, depending on your goals, for anyone who is young, doing athletics, or bodybuilding. perfect for efficient maintenance though
Owen Robinson
Ok show me a program that hits every muscle group more than 2x a week then
Thomas Gonzalez
oly lifters squat every day
Carson Roberts

Can PPL be good for women aiming to gain thigh and booty mass?
Jaxson Myers
Holy shit, a thread not about lifting for women or some introspective downward spiral.
Well done OP.
Landon Flores
PPL is an arbitrary way of scheduling the training week
it has 0 bearing on human physiology
the most common sense way to train is to train most of your body everyday, and it just so happens to coincide with le based science
Easton Mitchell
>doing the reddit routine
Jack Phillips
It's fine if you do literally no other physical activity, but if you pay any sports or want to do a decent amount of cardio (and no, 10 minutes of half-arsed "hiit" a week doesn't really count), your probably going to struggle doing in 6 gym sessions a week as well. Not because of exhaustion or anything, just because of the time demands. Unless you're a neet or a student, which is probably 90% of Yas Forums, hence it's popularity here.
