I am thinking of trying ppl rest ppl routine.
Which is push, pull, legs

One chest focused push, one shoulder focused
Pull is back
Leg day will be 1 quad focused and 1 hamstring focused

Sets 3-4 per exercise 6-12 reps on compounds.
isolation will be 12-15 reps

What do you all think?

    Not bad but remember pull is Back and bi’s, so you could do: first pull upper and mid back; second pull lower back and bi’s

    How many days per week?

    If 3, that's not enough frequency imo, even if you get enough weekly volume in a single session. You'd be a full week before hitting each group again. There are much better options than PPL here.

    If 6, don't be spending too long each workout or your stimulus to fatigue ratio will suffer and you won't be able to recover enough. I'd suggest a max of two compound exercises per workout if doing this, so 6-8 working sets for the compounds.
