Expert Insight: Scheduling Reality
PPL is great, but requires 6 days a week. Upper/Lower works with 4. **The Consistency Factor:** It is better to run a "Sub-optimal" Upper/Lower split consistently for 52 weeks than to run an "Optimal" PPL split for 3 weeks and quit because you got busy. RepLog allows you to be flexible—if you miss a PPL Leg day, turn the next day into a Full Body session to catch up.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I do PPL 3 times a week?
Yes, you can just rotate P-P-L over a continuous cycle regardless of the week.
Does it support 5 day splits?
Yes, common splits like PHAT (Upper/Lower + PPL) are fully supported.
