Training Frequency!

[Carrnage]

You read the title! Whats your guy's opinion on how many days someone should train and why! Lets hear em!

It's definately different for everybody. For me, pretty much every frequency from 3-4 times a week to 6-7 times a week works, but only for a short period. A couple months ago, I was doing a split in which I trained each body part twice a week, and I put on some solid size but my progress halted after some time. Then I cut down to a 4 day split (hellraiser training) and my progress jump started again.

If you're just "working out" for fun or general fitness, do it whenever you can or have motivation. Just have a simple plan...but do it!

If you have more specific goals, such as improving for a sport, stepping on the platform, or getting on stage, read, read, read! Research the fuck out of everything, then try something for at least a full planned cycle. If it didn't work as well as you hoped, try something else. After a couple of years, you'll find something that works best for you.

That being said, most athletes with a basic platform of training under their belt, with moderately good diet, no drugs, and minor supplementation will benefit most from a 3-4 day a week split with added conditioning once or twice a week.

There was a time i trained 7 days a week and certainly made my best gains. Since then i have cut it back to 5 days a week as i feel i need those days to rest and recover.
