STUDLY76 said:Some skinny prick at my gym today told me that I over-train. He made this comment because he saw me do arms 3 times in a one week. First of all, my arms are 18 inches, which is big for 170lbs. I am in very good shape otherwise also. I used to believe that also, but I see myself growing more that I do body parts 2-3 times a week. Besides, my theory is that Pro's are in the gym 5+ hours a day, it is their career. They look great and train way morew than i do. Am I right or wrong?? Whatever it may be, my gains are showing by the week. Anyways, the 135 pounder pissed me off and I told him his arms looked like string beans and that he might want to get on my program. Fucker!
pros do not train like that. and, i train arms 3 times a weak when they lag. small body parts are ok. you over train if you do big parts (back legs) more then once a week. if you have a weak area in a smaller muscle group. hit it more then once a week, you'll be fine. the smaller groups recover quicker, and can be hit more often. IMO
