This program is an intermediate program (although like most programs, it can be perfectly acceptable for advanced trainees as well). It’s an adaptation from a program I had originally designed for men, looking to get the most out of training 3-4 days a week, with minimal equipment (garage gym equipment) and sessions that can be completed in 90 minutes or less. It can be done by anyone of course, it has a balanced split with slightly more focus on the upper body.
The first block is a half body split, with exercise taken short of failure. This will give your body time to acclimate to the program. Blocks 2 and 3 are mortified push, pull, lower splits that become progressively more challenging.
Like all the programs, you can adjust (add/remove) off days as needed based on individual schedule and recovery. You can extend out any of the weeks (with the “add week” button) and run the program for longer than 12 weeks, start back from the beginning and run through start to finish again, or use the recovery phase in between.
This push / pull / lower split is designed for really anyone, from beginner to advanced. It has a balanced approach of frequency and volume which makes it fit a multitude of goal sets. If you are coming from the 1/2 Body split, this PPL split is a seamless transition forward to the next step into advancing your training. Last 12 total weeks, the PPL split has and A & B workout for each given day. This means 6 different progressive workouts that increase in volume, intensity, and demand over the course of 3 different phases. Each of them lasting 4 weeks a piece. Whether you are wanting to build muscle, lose fat, or change body comp very quickly the PPL split is a very balanced and effective attack to do so. Personally, I think this is about as challenging as you can make a 12 week experience. Good luck and go push yourself.
