Monday is national chest day lol. If you do it, i wouldn't do the same workout on both days. Maybe on monday focus more on compound moves like benches, dips and inclines and Friday more isolation stuff like flyes crossovers and maybe some hammer strength stuff.

NO! maybe different workout every week, that is my work out...

What kind of a stupid poll is this??

I hit chest one time a week, but it's absolutely irrelevant which day of the week it is. What matters is, what is before and after in your split.

Training chest on mondays will not have a different result that training chest on thursdays.

Thats very true it is VERY irrelevent, I took it as just a poll of who likes what kinda thing.

BUT regardless donkey's right

Once a week. I've never felt the need for twice a week. If I want to prioritise chest for a while, I just train it on it's own, increasing the volume. Usually works.

And I can't enter the poll, as I train chest on Sunday's.

JasonH · « **Reply #16 on:** December 13, 2008, 02:12:53 PM »

Once a week.

The only bodypart I train twice a week is abs. Although I'm considering bringing calves into that equation too.

ozman · « **Reply #17 on:** December 15, 2008, 11:02:21 AM »

Why did you ask if he was doing 2 workouts per day ?

Charlys69 · « **Reply #19 on:** December 20, 2008, 10:00:48 AM »

i train chest 1.2 - 1.4 times a week......in words "every 5 or 6 days".

P.S. my muscles don´t know what a week is.......they only know if they where sore, or fully recuperated.....

Haha, nice way of putting it. Same here. Once every 5 days, 6 if I'm not ready yet. It doesn't seem like a lot, but in a month's or year's time it equals out to a lot more sessions and more chance for stimulation/breakdown.

Because i figure that many bodyparts for one day CAN and WILL lead to overtraining.

Maybe injury, Unless he is also juiceing then i could see this being done.
