Cons of Coolcicada’s Push/Pull/Legs Original Routine

 

Coolcicada original ppl program lacks core deadlift exercise, volume, advanced bodybuilding techniques, fore arm training and core exercises. Here we updated the program in such a way that volume of the training regimen increased more than 50%. As a result the program become more intense. We added deadlift and reverse barbell curl in pull day. 4 Ab exercises are added in leg day. Advanced bodybuilding techniques like 28 method and drop sets are included in the program to make it more intense and efficient.
