Should I do the same 4-6 exercises of my pull push leg days or should I mix things up?

Example Push A:

  • Flat Benchpress Barbell
  • Incline Benchpress Dumbbells
  • Seated Shoulder Press Dumbbells
  • Triceps Pushdowns
  • Lateral Raises (Cable)

So next push day rinse repeat or should I do Example Push B:

  • Flat Benchpress Dumbbells (last time barbell)
  • Incline Benchp. Barbell (last time Dumbbell)
  • Standing Shoulder Press (last time seated)
  • Triceps Skull Crushers (last time pushdowns)
  • Lateral Raises (Dumbbell, last time Cable)

?

I think most PPL programs follow your second example, with different exercises between Push 1 and Push 2. Same muscle group but different variation will probably give you a little bit more growth stimulus?

Seems complicsted to see results if tracking though?

You're using RPE right? Your reps will go up over time, that's easy to track?

Well it's a slow process, you compare A workouts to A workouts and B workouts to B workouts. I track my progress with the Hevy app:
