  • The perfect push workout is a component of a push, pull, legs workout split which is one of the most common training splits for building muscle and strength. In this video, I’m continuing the perfect workout series and bringing you the perfect push workout to build a bigger chest, shoulders, and triceps. Not only am I going to provide the exercises, but I’m breaking down all the sets and reps to make sure you don’t miss out on any muscle gains.

    A PPL split is a pull, push, and legs workout program that can be laid out a few different ways, but I’m showing you my favorite. One thing to note is how to sequence this training split; repeating each workout day twice in sequence for 6 straight workout days in a row before a rest day. This option allows for a predictable schedule but compromises rest in the process.
    The other way to perform a PPL split is take a rest day after the first 3 workouts. Perform another 3 days and then rest once again. This asynchronous split causes unpredictable rest days, but allows for more recovery which leads to overall better muscle gains.
    Below is Push Workout 1:
    - Bench Press - 4 x 4-6 (leave 1-2 in the tank)
    - Hi-to-Low Crossover - 3 x 10-12 (post-pressing adduction)
    - DB Shoulder Press - 4 x 8-10 (standing movement)
    - 1.5 Side Lateral Raises - 3 x 12-15 (direct side delt activation)
    - Lying Triceps Extensions 3 x 10-12 into DB Waiter Curls - 3 x 10-12
    - Rotator Cuff ER - 3 x 15-20 (rotator cuff strengthening and shoulder stability / health)
    With any push workout, it is essential to include a heavy compound movement and in this case, it’s the classic bench press. This particular exercises allows for overload on all 3 major pushing muscles, the chest, triceps, and shoulders together. With 4 sets of 4-6 reps, make sure to choose a weight where you can perform in the given rep range with 1-2 reps left in the tank.
    Next in this push day is the hi-to-low crossover. This exercise provides adduction of the chest that most pressing movements do not as they don’t allow for the arms to travel across the midline of the chest. Taking the chest through its full range of motion is necessary to get a bigger chest in the long run.
    The DB shoulder press is performed standing instead of sitting because pressing your back in the bench while pressing overhead interferes with scapular movement. The utilization of dumbbells in this particular workout not only allows for the bench press to be the compound exercise of choice, but it also helps to expose any imbalances one might have.
    The 1.5 side lateral raises allow for direct side delt activation that is ignored in the previous exercises of this perfect push workout, all of which are heavily influencing the front delts. This direct focus on the side delts will help to build overall bigger shoulders.
    As we did in the Perfect Pull Workout, we are including both triceps and biceps as a superset here in our push workout. The arms get targeted with a superset with the lying triceps extensions into a DB waiter’s curl. Including both biceps and triceps on a push day accrues for extra volume that is necessary for building muscle.
    To finish up this push workout, I included the banded rotator cuff external rotation as our corrective for the day. It is a phenomenal way to build shoulder health and stability, something necessary for any effective push day workout as well as promoting general shoulder health and safety.
    Here is what Push Workout 2 looks like:
    - Barbell Overhead Press - 4 x 4-6 (leave 1-2 in the tank)
    - Underhand DB Bench Press - 3 x 8-10
    - Abduction Rows - 3 x 10-12
    - Floor Flys - 3 x 10-12
    - Triceps Close Grip Bench Press - 3 x 6-8 into DB Curl of Choice - 3 x 10-12
    - Pushup Plus - 3 x F
    Utilizing both of these workouts will serve as your push workout in the PPL workout split. Alternate these two workouts whenever the push day of the PPL split shows up on the calendar. Remember to select weight that will allow for failure in the prescribed rep ranges, aiming to add more weight each time the workout appears.

    Thanks Jeff! I did your push pull leg split for 6 months in high school and I had a shoulder injury at one point and never had it checked out, but the corrective work that you posted helped me recover. In a couple weeks of light training and rotator corrective movements I was able to get back to lifting heavy again. We all really appreciate your dedication and the knowledge you share, thanks!

    I‘be been doing the PPL sets for a couple of weeks now -- love it! The other night I was doing Push2. I was doing my DB floor flys, and as I walked over to the dumbbell rack I spotted a guy on the bench doing some underhanded dumbbell bench presses. Now that is an unusual exercise, and I thought, “Could it be?” Sure enough, as I was moving on to my close-grip barbell bench press I see him doing those DB abduction rows. Aha!
    So I asked him before I left if he was doing the Athlean-X PPL splits, and he said, “Yes! Good eye!” Made a new gym buddy. Thanks, Jeff!

    I love these videos. So far in just a few weeks of watching them, I've resolved some upper back problems (face pulls and pull-ups), increased my 1 rep max by 20lbs in one workout (plugging the energy leaks), and my skinny ass has seen bigger and better physical gains by following Jeff's advice than I did in the prior 5 months (when I started). It makes me believe I might actually get to the point where I'm no longer the tall skinny guy.

    Very good exercise demonstration. Thank you for this valuable advice on body-part split training, Jeff. I exercise BASED on the Heavy Duty way of training; but from many years ago I've added anywhere from 1 to 3 work sets on a muscle-group. However, I don't train exactly that way; gym is closed, so I work out mostly in my basement, and I have shoulder injuries, especially my right shoulder. Rotator cuff, and subluxation.
    I prefer to exercise on this schedule that I made by myself whereby I exercise on Chest, Triceps, Forearms for Day 1, rest 1 to 2 days, Back, Hamstrings, Calves on Day 2, next day exercise on midsection. Rest 2 to 3 days after Day 2, then work on Legs (Thighs), Shoulders, Biceps.
    Therefore, exercising a body-part directly once within a week, 3 times weekly. Also, since more rest could be required, then it is something to at least 2 workouts a week; however I try to get 3 exercises days WITH WEIGHT within a week. Therefore, sometimes the third workout falls on the beginning of the second week.
    I tried working out 4 times all within a week! However, on the following week I went back to three workouts within a 7 day length of training.
