ive given up on the idea to go to the gym often, ill try to stick with full body twice a week. that way i should be able to stick to it, even if i get sick in the winter months or whatever.

4x a week great thing is my younger son is into it so I take him twice a week the rest of the time he works out at home I bought my older son 200 pounds of weights bar and db handles nice flat to incline bench but he didn't get into it as much he likes kickboxing..

up until this year when I got so some injuries outside the gym which have made it a nightmare of starting over and over constantly, pretty much 4-5 days a week, except for from jan 2014-sept 2015 when I was deathly ill

coming back from that was hell, still to this day I have the effects of that which in addition between medication, rebound and age, have made it impossible to find the balance weight etc.

I have 6 workouts: 2 push, 2 pull & 2 legs.

I aim to train everything twice over 9-10 days, taking rest days as I need them...

So far this round:

Pull A
Push A
Legs A
REST
Pull B
REST
Push B

Supposed to be Legs B tonight, but off out for food with the wife, so I'll add in a 3rd rest day.

Is there any actual benefit training more than 4 times a week?

You mean besides pure enjoyment....Of course....Your body doesn't work to a 7 day week...

If you are recovered and can progress lifts then why not train every 4-5th day?

One bodypart session per week = 52 session/yr
Training a bodypart twice every 8 days = 90ish sessions/yr

More sessions, more progress, more muscle...
