Gym 4 x week enough ?

[Sinman]

Hey guys I've been on my cycle for two weeks was going to the gym 6 days a week strong but I started getting really fatigued so I've cut it down to 4-5 days aweek is that enough when your on cycle?

 

[donjob]

plenty. I'd cut it down to 3. maybe a 4th day of some type of conditioning granted you have a solid foundation of strength.

Donjob I'm actually getting better workouts and heavier weight I think I was over doing it wasn't allowing enough time for recovery !

 

[donjob]

rest and nutrition are more important than lifting. you were definitely over training or atleast over reaching.

Anything more than 4 days a week and I'm overtraining whether on cycle or not.

Sinman, how old are you?

I am 26, and I workout 4 days on, 1 day off, then repeat. My lifts and size are both increasing, and I do a decent amount of volume. Just curious..

Whatever works for you is the best. Since starting my cycle of test-e and superdrol ive been going 5 days a week minimum and working doing chest should triceps mon, back biceps tues, chest shoulders tric wed, back bic thurs, chest should tric friday. Its a really tough workout but I got very good results doing it this way as opposed to a separate body part each day (still good results tho). I'll do more exercises earlier in the week and progressively go easier throughout but it gets the job done on gear. To each is their own as long as you're not overtraining. I switch this workout up every 6 weeks and then move onto separate muscle groups everyday

Im doing light legs with the back. I tore my acl and just started using them again. No squats which was hands down my favorite exercise.

In the meantime just started doing leg extensions, lying hamstring curls, and body weight squats with dumbells

 

[Sinman]

I feel your pain I have two bulging discs in l4 and l5 si that's why I only do legs once a week light weight sucks getting old 39 , u have to be a tough sob to get old

totally agree.. but if you really want to push it hard and the best you can , you could have relaxation sessions or get massages. these help the muscle building process and you improve at a faster rate
