    Haven’t missed the gym since Christmas. Is it necessary to have rest days if I’m doing PPL?

    @paigek91 My answer is the following. Training 16 days straight is bad, you need to have a rest day AT LEAST once a week, or once every 6 days, so you should have had at least 2 rest days. And even that I think it’s bad, I wouldn’t train with less than 2 rest days a week.

    @paigek91 I mean, yes? Suppose you do push on monday, pull on wednesday, legs on friday, it's perfect in terms of recovery. You will have 7 days of rest for each muscle, and a rest day between each gym day.

    @paigek91 I think you mean a 6 days PPL split, so a PPLPPL. I'll treat as if it is what you mean, if it isn't then I'm talking alone and should be ignored. Lol The reason why I don't like PPLPPL, or more broadly a 6 days split, is specifically the rest days. You are right, that if you have a...

    am I doing enough sets for hypertrophy on push and pull days?

    @goldengirl34 I thought so. It's good as you are doing it with shoulders, maybe 2 exercises with 3 series each will be enough For chest I meant 1 exercise with 3 series. With backs the same, with my example 2 more exercises would be 3 series dumbbel row and 3 series reverse fly. Just like you...

    am I doing enough sets for hypertrophy on push and pull days?

    @goldengirl34 I think you could take 1 more on chest and 2 more on backs, like a dumbbel row and a reverse fly. Also, when are you training shoulders? on leg day? Cause I don't see it here.
