Just wondering, cause it seems low volume but I am hitting my muscles 1-2x.

Example currently:

Push 1: Monday

Flatbench DB Press 5x5-6 (Chest)
Incline Barbell Press 3x8-12 (Upper Che&Shoulder
Dips (Chest Tri Shoulder) 3x to 2-3 RIR
Skull Crushers 4x12-15

Push 2: Thursday

Flatbench DB Press 4x8-12
Shoulder Press Barbell (standing) 4x8-12
Triceps Overhead Extensions 1x6, 1x8, 1x10
Cable Lateral Raises 5x15

I am basically doing 9 Sets Chest just with DB Benchpress. Do incline presses count and do the shoulder presses count too?

I cant do more im exhausted by the end of my workout and each takes already 1 hour.

For legs I do: wednesday 1

RDLs
Bilgarien Splitsquats
Leg Curls
Smithmachine Calf raises

Saturday 2:

Squat Barbell
Leg Extensions
Leg Curls
Calf Raises

Dunno... or should I Stick to same exercises for each PPL day?

I wonder if its bad doing incline bench and standing shoulder press only once for example... but dont they kind of target same muscles?
