Anyone train muscle groups more than once a week?
Was just curious as to what peoples techniques are for training a specific or all muscle groups more than once a week. Im more thinking for when on a cycle, to take advantage of the repair time and ability. I was thinking for my upcoming cycle to train all muscle groups from monday to thursday then perhaps on friday do a whole body workout of sorts, then rest saturday and sunday. Any thoughts would be appreciated thanks bros.

depends on volume, cal intake, sleep .....
Best gains I've made were on a split that hit everything 2x per week.
I would not change right before cycle, I would run the split to see how it worked for me first.

Depends on your diet and workout intensity. Im able to train all muscle exept legs twice a week as long as my protien intake is high.

I'm Starting to do muscle groups more than once a week. Legs will be hit twice a week and all other body parts will be hit on average 1.5 times per week with no "arm days". Will be doing this for 8-10 weeks or so while on cycle and consuming a surplus of calories. I'm kinda excited to see what kind of gains come my way! :-)

thanks for all the imput guys, i may dabble with working muscles twice a week on cycle. I hurt a tendon in my arm a while back and was training legs twice a week for a while, was goin pretty well. I think for my genetics anyhow that training twice a week will be a on cycle thing only.

I have never figured out why people get into the mindset that everything needs to fit into "a week". It's nothing more than a 7 day period of time. The thinking of, "should it be once a week or twice a week" is inheritantly flawed from the beginning. What about working each muscle every 4th, 5th or even 6th day if once a week doesnt seem like enough. There is no rule that states chest day must fall on Monday.

^^Perfect example of the point I was trying to make. So it needs 2 days to recover from one workout and 3 days to recover from the other one? Or is it just cause it fits into "a week".
