Overtraining?

**Sayker** · 10-08-2005, 10:46 AM

Not sure if I made this up in my head or not, but did I read that this helps recovery time? And if it does or doesnt, how bad would it be for me to train lets say chest and bi's one day and then do bi's and tri's the next?

My work outs normally are one of the following

Back/tris
chest/bi's
legs
shoulders traps/ w/ bi's or less often tri's (if I did bi's the day before)
bi's/tri's

so I kinda run into problems in which work out to do next as I only do legs once a week. Also I take a break from weight training once ever 6 or 7 days.

Thanks, and nice avatar.

Anybody else got any useful input, so far everyone else seems to think this thread is open mic night at a comedy club.

You could try something like this if you really are pushing to have two Tri/Bi workouts a week. But you may find, as most do, if you are doing enough sets and using good form and proper poundages - once a week is better.

Day 1 - Back/Bis
Day 2 - Chest/Abs/Tris
Day 3 - Legs
Day 4 - Shoulders/Traps
Day 5 - Bis/Tris

Day 6 & 7 - Off/Cardio?

....Or do like Lavinco says - I'm starting to believe that's him in the avatar.

Nope its a question about wether GH helps in recovery time, and to what extent, can I work Back and tri's one day and then work tri's and bi's the next

I've heard steroids in general do help with recovery time... especially GH. Overtraining is something that up until now I haven't worried about, but am keeping aware of it possibly happening as my weight/strength increases.

I cycle through this:
day 1:chest/triceps
day 2:legs
day 3:shoulders/calves
day 4:back/biceps
every day:abs
(sometimes I do two days in one day, goal is to get through this 2x a week, adding as much weight as I can)

On test, ox, deca , & HGH.

I'd be interested if anyone has any references to this subject, have been wondering about it for awhile.
