I designed this program after a video made by Jesse James West and Jeff Nippard on June 9th, 2024. It serves as a continuation of the infamous Reddit PPL (which I just recently completed). This is a novice friendly PUSH PULL LEG split. It serves as a new way to challenge myself while targeting the same muscles that the original Reddit PPL.

Who it's for

Beginners new to structured strength training
Athletes focused on bodyweight fitness
Athletes who can train 6 days per week
Athletes with access to a full gym (barbells, dumbbells, cables, and machines)

Common questions

Yes, Jesse James West + Jeff Nippard Scientific PPL is completely free to follow on Boostcamp. Download the app on iOS or Android, find the program, and start your first workout immediately. All 12 weeks are fully unlocked.

This program is built around a full gym. Make sure you have consistent access before starting, since the progression model assumes you can perform the same movements week over week.

Each session typically takes around 80 minutes to complete. That estimate covers your working sets but doesn't account for warm-up or rest between sets, so budget a little extra time when you're first learning the movements.

Jesse James West + Jeff Nippard Scientific PPL is structured around 6 training days per week, with rest days built in to allow for recovery. The Boostcamp app lets you reschedule sessions if your week doesn't go to plan.

The program runs for 12 weeks. The structure is designed so that each week builds on the last, with weights, volume, or intensity progressively increasing as you go.
