Training frequency + rest while on

i like to do mon/wed/fri/sat. back bis/legs/chest tris shoulders/oly lifts. that's me, that's the split i use for my specific goals. you say you want to bring your chest up so you hit it twice a week sometimes, you grow outside the gym man, as cliche as it may sound. let's say you hit the gym 4 days a week an hour at a time. that's 4 hours. there are 168 hours in a week. diet and rest are the most important factors here, you go to the gym to break the muscle down, the other 95% of the time is spent repairing it thus making it bigger and stronger. if your chest is lacking either in size or strength you don't need to add a day, you need to look at what you are doing that one day and revamp it. you want size? i suggest squeezing exercises such as flies, preferrably cable flies. you want a big bench? then bench big. what are your goals btw? strength? size? you trying to compete at a powerlifting meet one day? strong man? you just want to be functional? you just trying to get big and cut for next beach season? hope to get your pro card one day? this will determine what your training schedule needs to look like. i can't help you tooo much with the info you've given us. more detail. like your exact training, what each day in the gym looks like, your exact diet, and how much sleep you get. as well as cardio, what are you doing. also list your 1rm for back squat, front squat, bench, OHP, deadlift, bent over rows and weighted pullups.
 
Still here. Thanks for the help with this guys. This thread opened my eyes a bit. Im not going to get what I want from this cycle so im abandoning it for now. It was my first one anyway. My diet isnt up to par, and I need to secure a better gym before I can commit with confidence. Im on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) anyway so Ill keep that up, secure a new gym membership but most importantly I have decided to consult with 3J on a carb cycling diet.

Once I get to 12% BF and have my training in order I will gear up again. Ill still be here lurking until its time.

good idea, no point in running a cycle if your training and diet aren't up to par.
 
I do tricep bicep shoulders 2x a week.. traps and abs every day.. chest, back, legs 1x weeks.. cardio m,w,f... godspeed.. dont over train.. i try to get atleast 1-2 rest days a week and.i switch each routine each week.. i have routine A routine B and routine c
 
I had the same question, Ive been reading similar posts and it seems that most are okay with training more often as long as your body feels like it has recovered and your not over doing it
