How about hitting legs 2 times a week?

[William H. Bonny]

I know this is a very cleche' answer, but everyone is different. Most of my buddies only work out each muscle once a week, but I usually recover quickly enough to get in each bodypart twice a week. Listen to your body. If you are still sore the next time you are scheduled to do a particular bodypart, then forget about training it twice that week. If you feel completely recovered, then by all means hit it twice. Through experience and experimentation, most people find out what is good for them.

I am able to work legs 2X per week but I find it works better to only do squats during one of those workouts thus using a leg press on the second workout. I do find that leg extensions, leg curls and calf work can be done 2X per week.

what are your stats, how much weight are you usually using and how many exercises are you usually using.

I have had a lot of success with doing squats 2x weekly, but maybe not the success you are looking for---I've done it to help with muscle soreness.

When I first switched to squats twice a week, I waited until the soreness had gone away from my last leg work (I think about 5 days ) before I did 2 sets of mid weight, mid rep squats on top of whatever workout I had scheduled. Then 2 days later I went back to my full leg workout, which consists of squats, leg press, leg ext, romanian DL, leg curls, and calf raises. Now the light day falls mid-way between leg days and the soreness from heavy leg days is gone in half the time...and seems to be half as bad.
