Some will say just as much on juice as when you are off. Lifts will be more intense and the growing will be done outside of the gym.

Personally, my days on/days off are the same...

This is true for your muscles, but not for your CNS. So resting while your on is just as important while your off.

i stick to 2 on 1 off 2 on 2 off, or change to 1 on 1 off when i feel the need

you're lucky you can train that often, i feel exhausted the next day after a hard workout

its not just that

if i have a proper hardcore session and im in pain and i go to the gym the next day, i find it can hinder your next workout a little bit some of the time
