Here's an introduction to how the push-pull-legs workout works:
In the push workout, you train all of your upper body pushing muscles. So. your chest, shoulders, and triceps.
In the pull workout, you train all of your upper body pulling muscles. So. your back, biceps, and rear delts.
And finally, in the legs workout, you train your entire lower body. That's your quads, hamstrings, and calves.
This introductory workout program is performed for a total of 3 days per week with a rest day in between every 3 consecutive days. But do note that the push-pull leg split can also easily be adjusted in a variety of ways to best fit your schedule.
