    I believe that smaller guys (less then 170) can possibly train and recover (many other variables obviously) and hit everything twice a week because there muscles are smaller requiring less recovery time. Most bigger guys tend to get more out of hitting everything hard once a week and maybe hitting some smaller muscles twice a week. One method might be instead of three bicep exercises once a week .....do two bicep exercises twice a week. There are many ways....I would rather do 4 hard core routines then 5 or 6 mediocre because I am not getting enough recovery time.

    Exactly, I find 4 to be the perfect number, could not see how i could go 6 days a week and have a hardcore session every single time. 4 hardcore workouts, then 3 rest days.especially as natural, even dorian kept it at 4 , this is why I am not a fan of push/pull/legs, destroying the whole body 3 days in a row is a lot on the CNS, deads,squats,benching,..,....and some dont even take a rest day after the 3rd session which is ludicrous, 6 days straight is insane unless these are soft workouts
