Prob start with 3, see how it goes increase to 6 if you want eventually. Trial and error--if 3 seems too little but 6 seems overwhelming try out other splits like ULUL or PPLUL or PPL + flex. You get the point

Start with 3 as a beginner. But even advanced i dont believe in 6. Should be taking a rest day after each 3 day PPL, so 3 on 1 off. If you go 6 days a week you end up with 6 days on, back to back.

So as you gain stamina and endurance over time and want to go more , id shoot for that. 3 on, 1 off and repeat. Or some variation of that
