What is a PPL split?
A Push Pull Legs split is a workout routine that divides training into three distinct sessions: push, pull, and legs. The “push” workouts focus on exercises that engage the pushing muscles, including the chest, shoulders, and triceps. The “pull” workouts target the pulling muscles, such as the back and biceps. The “legs” workouts are dedicated to lower body exercises, working the quads, hamstrings, glutes, and calves. This type of split allows for a balanced and comprehensive approach to training, ensuring that all major muscle groups are effectively targeted and given adequate recovery time between sessions.
Who may benefit?
A Push Pull Legs split can benefit a wide range of individuals, from beginners to advanced athletes. It’s ideal for those looking to structure their workouts in a way that maximizes muscle growth and recovery. This split is particularly beneficial for individuals who want to focus on building strength and hypertrophy, as it allows for targeted training of major muscle groups with sufficient rest days in between. Additionally, those with busy schedules may find this routine effective, as it provides flexibility and the ability to adjust workout intensity and frequency according to personal goals and time availability.
What exercises may be included?
A Push Pull Legs split includes a variety of exercises tailored to target specific muscle groups each day. Push workouts typically focus on the chest, shoulders, and triceps, with exercises like bench presses, shoulder presses, and tricep dips. Pull workouts target the back and biceps, incorporating exercises such as pull-ups, rows, and bicep curls. Leg workouts concentrate on the lower body, including squats, deadlifts, and lunges to build strength and muscle in the quads, hamstrings, and glutes. This split ensures a balanced approach to muscle development and overall fitness.
