Very good program. I would like to see more like it on this application. I would recommend putting a couple different alternatives for each exercise in the event people need to switch it up due to equipment or experience. I am a firefighter so I don't have the same equipment at work as I don't a regular gym, so alternatives would be highly recommended. I would also like to have some exercises change at week 6 just to mix up some movements, while keeping the core movements (exercises) the same. Post bicep tear recovery, this has helped tremendously keeping me on track. working week after week to slowly add 2.5 to 5 pounds of weight to exercises at a time, getting me back to normal and start to advance myself.

Overall, it’s pretty good and easy to follow……if you have a good amount of 2.5’s to throw on the bar at your gym. Your arms and calves are definitely toast by the end of the workout. My Arms have definitely gotten bigger because of it! 💪!!! My lower chest and upper traps need more work than this program has. So I modified a little to adjust for that. But otherwise…solid and simple growth patterns to follow 👍

Good program that, like most PPL programs, has overlaps of muscle groups. Ran as 3 on 1 off.. worth a try, but be careful of running down as 5 to 6 days a week at this volume will accumulate f atigue.

Particularly good for honing in on upper body strength and hypertrophy. Small modifications for Pull/Push days as the Face Pulls and Lat Raise sets felt excessive. Subbed in other auxiliary work (row and tricep variations) for good results. Added in heavy carries, more core, and cardio for a complete program. I'd recommend this one, with some of the smart mods I noted above.

Used a 8 or 9 day rotation. 6 days a week was too much 46 yo lifter. Took rest days as required.

10 weeks completed. Great results, could have seen better results if I dialed my diet In a bit more.
