| Gym Addict  |  How many days do you train a week? The reason I ask is because my dad thinks you should train 7 days a week 1/2 hours a day ( ino he's so wrong ) , i also train for strenght ( bill Starr 5x5 madcow) I do 5 reps , he says I should do 10+ ... Just keep going ! So please prove him wrong if he is incorrect.

   | Re: How many days do you train a week? He is not wrong, he is not right Different goals, splits, recovery levels and sessions determine how many you do As long as CNS recivery occurs and glycogen replenishment is met then you can do what the heck you like as long as you are employing overload,.making gains and avoiding illness, injury and over training

| Re: How many days do you train a week? Your too young for 5x5 IMO stick to 10x10 or any program which doesnt use weights under the 8 rep max range. Your not finished growing yet and have plenty of time no need to be going max out yet. I train 4 times per week 30-40mins per time. |

| Re: How many days do you train a week? 1 on, 1 off for me. The days im off though i through in 20min cardio, and calves. Cardio helps keep the fat levels in check during the off season, and bulking season. Abs i hardly ever work, but when i diet for comps my abs are one of my best bits. Geo

| Re: How many days do you train a week? Well, I'm dieting at present so 6 days a week twice a day which would be 12 times a week. cardio every morning. weights 4 evenings plus 2 PM cardio sessions. but that fits my goals. as above, frequency and all other variables should be specific to your goals.

| Re: How many days do you train a week? I voted 5, but i tend to do 2 on 1 off. Depending on how my shifts fall it varies some times to something like 2 on 1 off 1 on 1off 2 on. Or at a push 2 on 1 off 3 on 2 off. On the 3 rd day though im usually bushed. I always try and have a day off after leg day and usually back day as they both take it out of me with the heavy lifting |
