I’m new to this place, thought I’d come here to find more resources about bodybuilding, fitness and whatever. How does this place feel about Reddit’s PPL routine? Any opinion? Good or bad? Is there a better option in the way of a PPL routine or just general bodybuilding? Any places in particular on...

I've been lifting for awhile but feel like I've never done things right since I haven't seen great results. There is a lot to blame and diet was one of them but I've never been on a proven program and had to modified ones to work with my equipment. In the past I'd either over train, not following...

You know the pecs I'm talking about. Super defined under shadow in any lighting, the roll over on the bottom. I've been working on my pecs for a few months now. I'm seeing some acceptable gains but perhaps there is a quicker way. I'm 6'0, 180 lbs. I work chest every monday, wed, and fri. It USUALLY...

Hi, I'm a jiu-jitsu hobbyist (blue belt) and I don't get enough time in the week to fit in more than 2-3 gym sessions on top of jiu-jitsu and other hobbies, family time, etc. I'm not proud to admit this but I follow a "bro split" workout routine consisting of: - chest and triceps - back and...

Hey:) So I've just started Coolcicada's PPL program and there are some parts I want to change. I want to focus as much as possible on hypotrophy, so would it be ok to drop the weights and add more reps for some of the exercises? I want to make all of the exercises fall between 10-15 reps since that...

Hi, 19M and been training for 8 months now. I follow PPL progression and recently I hit a bench plateau I can't seem to overcome. I'm 6'3 and 88kg My routine on Push day: 4x8 BB press (I can only do 2x8 with 65kg and then drop to 62.5kg or 60kg) 3x8 incline DB press

So I work in a kitchen. I'm standing in place constantly, when I'm not doing that I'm doing heavy repetitive lifts or bent over a sink. Inevitably, 2 hours in I get slight back discomfort. That progresses through the whole day, until it's very uncomfortable 4-5 hours in, then it just gets worse...

I have done this same split with 10 sets a week, 12 sets a week, 16 sets a week per muscle group for months at a time even while bulking. I haven’t been able to make any progress with any of those volumes until I dropped it down to 6 sets a week, and now I’m making even better progress with the...

Hi everyone, I've decided to get back onto weightlifting. I have a fair bit of previous experience lifting however I'll be treating this as a novice. I have a bench, squat rack, barbell and dumbbells at home. I planned on starting a 4 day PPL routine however after reading the stickies it seems that...

I appreciate you taking the time to click this thread. Long story short, I haven’t worked out seriously in about 6-8 years since I got out of the Army due to leg injuries but I’m finally ready to get back into the swing of things. I am 5’4”, 128lbs, and have good genetics ( skinny, big...
