Push Pull Workout Routine
By Gary "Hulkster Jr."
The Push, Pull, Legs technique is based on focusing efforts on either
Pushing away from the center of your body, or Pulling toward your center.
To utilize this technique you perform Push exercises on day one. Day
two, alternate to Pull exercises. Day three work the legs and the
abdominals. This technique is most effective when two cycles of Push,
Pull, Legs are completed each week. That is, six workout days, at 60
minutes a session, and one day of rest.
Results from natural clients show an increase in strength an average of
25% after two months. This includes clients following the basic rules of
rest/recuperation, diet, and supplementation.
To begin the program utilize light weights and focus on technique.
Ensure your form for every exercise is proper. Slowly increase the
weight lifted as you become more familiar with the Push, Pull, Legs
technique. To ensure you are utilizing the correct weight load for your
fitness level, consider the following: when you wake up the next day,
you should be slightly sore. If your muscles are sore throughout the day,
your weight load needs to be decreased. If you wake up the next day and
are not sore, then increase the weight load. Generally the percentage of
decrease or increase is 10-20% of the current weight so as to gradually
build or decrease your weight load.
For body builders with primary goals to dramatically increase their size
and strength, utilize a program of 4 sets per exercise with repetitions of
12, 10, 8, 6, respectively. For the hard gainers utilize the 4 sets per
exercise with repetitions of 10, 8, 6, 4, respectively. Steadily increase
the weight load with each set.
If you do not experience muscle fatigue by last repetition of set 3, you
need to add more weight. Pay particular attention to muscle fatigue on the
last two sets.
