Push Pull Legs program

[broli]

On day 5 and 17 it states "per arm" on:

1. overhead tricep extensions
2. svend press
3. twists

But those exercises use both hands so I am confused.
Is that an error?

It refers to grip change, between which hand you place over the other. I agree it isn't apparent from the instructions and drawing. I just remember an old thread that clarified it when I was doing the program.

Do you do 16-20 reps for svend press and twists so?

 

[Skal1agrim]

Yep, so for Day 5 of PPL, for example, you'd do 10-14 total reps per set for the svend press, twists, and tricep extensions.

But svend press and twist are 8/10 sets per arm.
Isn't that 16-20 total reps?

Yeah that's right. It's just exactly what it says on the page, you just change grip.

On day 17 the alternative version of pullovers has sides too so?
"6-10 reps" so 3-5 reps per arm?

I suppose that makes sense. I didn't have a bench when I did the program, so I just did the standard version. I mean, really, it's all up to you anyways
