r/Fitness Reddit PPL Workout Program Setup
This is a Re:Do setup guide inspired by Metallicadpa's archived linear progression PPL on The Fitness Wiki. It is not approved by r/Fitness or the original author. Keep the source page as your reference for exact progression, deloads, substitutions, and updates.
Plan your own training in Re:Do Workouts.
Create the workout in your own words, run it step by step with timers and notes, schedule it when it fits, and log what actually happened.
PPL stands for push, pull, legs. The installable Re:Do pack keeps the source alternation readable by using Pull A, Pull B, Push A, Push B, and Legs workouts. It does not include a schedule, so you can choose whether to run PPLRPPL or PPLPPLR.

Scheduling the rotation
If you train three days per week, schedule Push, Pull, and Legs once each. If you train more often, use Re:Do schedules to repeat the sequence while still leaving room for rest. A simple rotation is easier to recover from when you can see what is coming before the week starts.
PPL can become too much volume fast. Let the log tell you whether the program is improving or just getting bigger.
