So this is probably one of those questions with no definitive answer as it has so many variables but I would like to gather a general consensus. While running 500mg of Test E, 400mg of Durabolin 2xWK (Monday/Thursday evening pins) and 40mg of Winny with an occasional bump of Test P as needed depending on fatigue from workouts (no more than 200mg 1xWK if needed), how often should I train? I was going EOD, but that was killing me to not hit the gym. I gained 30 pounds like this (252 pounds at 5' 9" last weigh in), but started going to the gym daily again because discipline can be a b****. I haven't gotten on the scale because I honestly forget to when I am done working out. Below is my routine. Kinda basic and not too heavy as I had torn a pec 4 years ago and don't want to re-injure it again. When I wake I drink my aminos, hit the gym on an empty stomach and drink aminos intra-workout, come back and start feeding myself my initial recovery meal, lunch, another recovery meal of rice/eggs or chicken and then dinner and pre-bedtime whey and amino mixture drink. I eat about every three hours depending on what I have to do.

Now my workout is the exact same only I go Monday thru Friday and take the weekend off. Does anyone think this is too frequent? Now I know I could squat and bench heavier, but keep in mind I have a previously torn pec, 4 slipped disks and a nerve impingement. I know cry me a river... that's also why deads aren't a part of my workout.
What adjustments should I make if any to the training frequency? Not really interested in changing the weights.
