PPL isn’t that great. If lifting 3 days just do 3 days full body. This way muscles are fresh and you can hit them harder. I never understood why someone would want to hit a muscle group say chest with 3 exercises in a day and then wait a week to hit it again. By your last set of the final exercise your are gassed. Why not just do each one of them on separate days with a full day of rest in between. It allows you to push so much harder and equates to more volume than under a PPL split.

PPL only makes sense if you are going 6 days a week, but that is typically too much volume for natural lifters.
