yes or no?
What do you think?

What did you had in mind?
3 days is enough,
chest/back
legs
shoulders/arms
Less is more. The diet is the biggest concern if you want to constructive progress.
-
i think limiting your posting on getbig to 4 days a week would have some health benefits

Monster preparing for Mr. GetBig. Good luck 240. 4 days a week should cut it IF you do it right. I'd recommend about 1hr at least each session, full intensity (to get that extra rep in), going to failure on every set, and hitting all rep ranges (1 - 20). Basic advice, but you need to go back to basics if you're starting up again. What's your program like?
-
weights -> yes
sex -> no
agree on the sex thing
-
Depends on your schedule (which I understand is pretty hectic for you lately).
How has balancing both parenting and training been so far?
-
yes or no?
Sure is better than nothing. ;)
-
I'm doing 2 and 1 off with failure training and it's working out very well.
-
4 days a week is enough for everyone
-
4 days is good but a 2 or 3 day split then 1 off & repeat is better IMO.
-
no
-
7 days a week. 365 days a year. Till you die. Then your done.
-
yes
-
It depends on what you're trying to accomplish.
-
generally to gain yes, me personally no
-
yes or no?
How many years do you have to troll bb boards, and pretent to be a bb guru before you stop asking stupid questions?
Just curious
-
yes, depending on your program.
-
yes or no?
can't really say without more information. What's the routine look like? I guess I could blanket answer it and say "yes, it's great" but without more to go off of it's kinda a useless question. No offense, just fill in the details and you'll get better answers.
-
4.5 days should do it ;)
-
Sure, alternate Upper and Lower workouts.
Here's just an example of a 4 day layout I like.
Day 1- Upper* (concentration on bench pressing and rowing)
Day 2- Lower + arms (concentration on squats)
Day 3- rest / cardio
Day 4- Upper (concentration on shoulder pressing and vertical pulling)
Day 5- Lower + arms (concentration on deads/posterior chain)
Day 6- rest / cardio
Day 7- rest
Repeat
*chest, back and shoulders.

if you can recover faster than every seven days...workout more often than that. if you cant..space it out farther.
an ideal weight lifting schedule is one that destroys a muscle the second it is fully reparied and ready to lift with again.
for my body, that means once every five days..like this(no rest days):
chest/hamstrings
bi's/tri's/calves
shhoulders/traps/abs
back/calves
quads/abs
repeat
