    Tuesday-back/triceps
    Wednesday-rest
    Thursday-shoulders/traps

    Don't overdo it with training. You'll benefit far more from rest than you would the frequent workouts.

    I would put legs after chest day in that routine.

    Short intense workouts and plenty of rest = great growth.
    With proper diet.

    If you want to go that extra day just cause you feel good go and walk on the treadmill. That's what I do. 4 days weight training is plenty. Remember you don't grow in the gym

    I personally play it by ear, I work out 6/days a week, but if I'm feeling run down or something like that ill take an extra day off. And usually after leg days ill take the next day off because its the most taxing to me. After back day ill have a light day of just body weight core exercises and stretching.

    For me ill aim minimum 5 but ill never train a muscle that has doms, so its kind of random and not a set amount of days
