I aim for an hour but it sometimes stretches to 1.15

invisiblekid · 02-01-2008, 01:55 PM

30-40mins tops then 20-30mins cardio.

Ollie B · 02-01-2008, 01:57 PM

1hr -1hr 1.15mins

**Tinytom** · 02-01-2008, 02:33 PM

I put 45-60

Sometimes taks longer if say doing a session that requires lots of plateloading (cos I put my weights back

)

As Hackskii has said hormone levels decrease after 45 mins so after that you're fighting a cortisol battle as well.

Depends what type of physique you want I suppose, A few of my MMA friends train for a few hours but then they are training for endurance and strength over long periods so need to condition themselves.

I cant see the point of a bber training for longer than 60 minutes with weights (obviously cardio is extra).

This discussion obviously doesnt take into account gear use as the hormone argument doesnt hold water if you've jabbed 8iu of GH and 100mg of suspension prior to training lol.

Normally 35-45 minutes not including Cardio and I make sure nobody comes and talks to me while I'm training.

nobbythedonkey · 03-01-2008, 11:54 AM

30 to 45 minutes if im training on my own,having a proper rest between sets

if im training with someone its 45 to 60 minutes, we dont have much of a rest between sets, once i stop he jumps on, once he finishes his sets im back on

samurai69 · 03-01-2008, 02:51 PM

about 1 hour for weights workout and 15 to 30 mins of stretching
