  1. Push Pull Legs (6 days a week) Back can be sore after pull day and will limit leg day.

  2. Push Legs Pull This ensures a good leg day but messes with pull day.

  3. Pull Push Legs This feels like the most optimised of the three. Pull day is affected only once a week, as opposed to twice a week for the other two routines.

It is 5 days a week. I like to work 6 days. Still, I will look into it.

6th day could/should be cardio if you don't do it already

I do cardio on one of the pull days

I'm not sure about the new one but his powerbuilding program has an optional extra day for arms

Ok so you are talking about the one where he does PPLUL and extra day for lagging muscle groups. I will look into it.
