OK how often do u wait between the same work outs? This is in response to my latest topic. before this I thought most wer between 4-7 days.

4 day split w/ the 5th being a pickup of either oddball things pure rest or cardio when cutting.

So its a 5 day cycle making 4 days of rest between hitting the same muscle again.

i work out 3 days a week when im bulking. work each bodypart once a week. when im dieting i will increase that but only because i add cardio days as well. thats what works best for me. even when im on a cycle i train each bodypart once a week but with alot of intensity. i dont bullshit

Same here. Best routine for me.

M-W-F so i would say 1 body part a week. Most effective for me because not only do i get to rest the body part properly but i also get to sleep in on weekends.

heh one thing I noticed I bet most of the people who stated they rest 7 days really mean 6.

Doing a weekly split if you train say legs monday you only have 6 days of rest, since you can't count monday as a rest day.

For example if you trained abs monday and tuesday you would say 0 days wait.

monday and wednesday you wait 1 day ect..

I use the H.I.T technique 2-3 times a week. But i do cardio 5 days a week for about 1/2 an hour.
I change the mode every time i do it. I keep the intensity between 65%-80% of my max heart rate.
