I do back/front/legs then take a day off then repeat.  I have done this for years and have achieved an elite level of mass (185 lbs) so think twice before questioning my procedures.

Speaking of Mr. Jones, he starting off by recomending training each body part 3 times a week, but later on in life he recomended anywhere from twice a week to once every 3 weeks.

For you fellas who said once a week, is it really only once a week? If u train on a split that has an arms day, then your arms are getting trained twice a week, and if u have an arm day, a chest day, and a delt day, then your tris are getting trained 3 times a week, so its most likely that the fellas who said that they train each part once a week are really only training legs and bacl once a week.

Ok, each bodypart directly once a week.

once every 3 weeks.

I nail compound stuff (squat, bench, deads or bent rows) once every 1-3 weeks. Hit a few sets of arms and shoulders more often.. once every 1-2 weeks.

Yeah but that like saying your working your legs every hour because you walk. The whole idea is to isolate muscle groups  so that others can heal, you may be using them twice a week but your trying to only fatigue them once and let them heal the other six days.

Hey james001, are u able to make improvements and get stronger on those compound movement (ie squats and deads) by hitting them only once every 2 or 3 weeks? I know dat from my personal experience that if I let more than 2 weeks go by (after bout 17 days) my strength starts to regress and go down, and I am weaker that I was from da last workout. Yeah man, Im a bit obsessed bout dis particular training topic.
