If youโ€™ve just joined a gym, you may have heard of the debate comparing the push-pull-legs split, or PPL for short, vs. the Bro Split, where you train different body parts (chest, back, legs, shoulders, etc.) each day of the week. Understanding which one would be best for you can be rather confusing if you are new to exercising.

In this article, we will compare the Bro Split vs. the PPL split, so you can pick whichever one better suits your needs and goals.ย 

The Bro Split is designed to target a minimum of one and a maximum of two muscle groups per workout, with each muscle being worked only once a week. This allows you to pick a preferred training frequency for each muscle group and customize your workout length based on your schedule and your goals.
