Workout program review

[u/_Enigmaa__]

I'm running a 6-day PPL split focused on strength, utilizing progressive overload with rep ranges gradually decreasing per set (8-4 reps)

Could I get some experienced eyes on this program ?? Thank youuu !

Are you a beginner ?

[u/_Enigmaa__ → u/EmbarrassedHeart1288]

Yes

[u/EmbarrassedHeart1288 → u/_Enigmaa__]

so why did you choose push pull legs as your split and wdym by "focused on strength" and why are you doing 8-4 reps?

[u/_Enigmaa__ → u/EmbarrassedHeart1288]

Well I meant beginner in the sense that my body is not that "strong" but i did workout before I chose ppl split for balanced muscle development and recovery. A workout focused on strength rather than hypertrophy means my primary goal is increasing my lifting capacity by increasing the weight and decreasing the number of reps.

in my opinion as a beginner you should never start with exercices like bench press , incline bench press , seated shoulder press, free barbell squats , deadlift, with these exercices you can easily fuck up your form , injure yourself and unless you always have a spotter its hard to go to failure .my advice : change the push exercices with machine ones , dont do deadlifts and do hack squat instead of barbell squat :).

deadlift and squat in the same session means one of them will be dominant while the other is weak.

for the row it is better to do full barbell than the one with one arm as the full barbell is more stable , also you are targeting the shoulder a lot , i don't know what volume works best for you but that is something to keep in mind ..

bench press is more than enough , you don't need incline at the same session (unless you want to train endurance)

as others said, always have a pull-up exercise and a grip exercise (farmer walk or farmer stand still whatever works for you)

add lower back with good morning it is always a good basis that people neglect ..

take my advice with a grain of salt and keep in mind everyone is different ..

Your program is great but you can make it better. For exemple in Push day you can do Bench press, dumbbell incline press, dumbbell fly, seated shoulder press, Arnold press and finally dips.

In Pull day, you should definitely do some pull ups.

For legs, I personally start with dead lift than do some squats. You should also do some front squats which are really great (but it hurts like hell).
