Why can't IST be consistent on if multi day breaks are better for you vs an every day routine?
If people here do not actually work out then why are you here

7 is ok if you split it (PPL or brosplit) but 5 or 6 is what most people swear by for best results.
3 and 4 day splits are for people who do not have time to gymcel daily
Or powerlifters that need a bit more recovery time and lower volume to go heavier.
Is having 2-3 days rest days an explanation on why some people get cancer?
I go 7 days and nobody can stop me
There is no debate, you NEED rest at least one day two is best between lifts to build muscle, wear and repair is how it works PERIOD even if you are on gear. Anyone who says otherwise won't ever post body and is a dyel or cardio loving homosexual
shoo shoo
between lifts of the same muscle group, right anon?
you dont think construction workers just take a day off every other day right?
This is all only if you aren't some homosexual doing a gay routine and actually PUSHING YOURSELF, if you aren't just go everyday who cares lmao.
>Workout Muscle
>Wait 2 days
>Workout Muscle
(1 day rest exceptions for some)
Back, Tri's, Bi's
(0 day rest exceptions for some)
Abs, Forearms, Calves
Attempt to have (1) rest day a week.

FxxFxxF
Cardio can be done on rest days, but only if you don't push yourself, best to probably just walk instead. I.E > I do 15-20 miles on rest days, but attempt 25 on normal days, etc.
Imagine not doing full compound lifts every session and breaking up areas like some kind of fairy homosexual troony
didnt I just say FxxFxxF? You can do compound all you want bro.
>squats hurt my knees, and I have improper form so my back hurts sometimes
>not deadlifting at 6am
>I like DB bench more than BB, BB hurt my wrist
>frick OHP
>stop ego lifting!
no, i'd rather just do isolations on machines lol!
Squat 6x a week
Bench 3x a week
Deadlift 3x a week
Overhead press 3x a week
Row 3x a week
Pullups 6x a week
Simple as
What is the A in your 3rd split?
If you are doing everything else right, those who train 7 days with make more gains than those who train 6 days will make more gains etc...
24hrs rest is enough
You're some moron.
People who train 5 days a week are bigger than people who train 7 days a week even with each doing the same amount per day. Not only are you smaller you have wasted all that time.
Interesting. So people who train 4 days a week are bigger than those who train 5 days?
Or are you suggesting 5 days of training is a magic hack and anything above that is anti-training lmao
>Interesting. So people who train 4 days a week are bigger than those who train 5 days?
It is mind-bending trying to talk to a moron like you.
I did not say people who train 4 days a week are bigger than ones who train 5 days a week.
moron.
moron.
moron.
moron.
moron.
Calm the frick down you stupid Black person, you don't know how training works and that's okay
think of it more in terms of intervals and intensity.
I train three days in a row, rest, two days in a row rest, and boom that is 7 full days right there
My body doesnt know the difference between a Monday and a Wednesday but it does know a difference of first day training after a break vs third day in a row training etc
Bro splits are stupid and for people who dont make gains
I prefer 2-1, or 3-1 depending how things go. If you're training high intensity, high volume. You can be absolutely fried even on gear, so it's even worse for natties. The natties working out 7 days a week are giga morons lol, I understand enjoying working out, that's why I take gear but you're killing your gains.
I played soccer for the first 16 years of my life I have nothing but endurance. I enjoy my 3 day / 2 day split and works nice with my recent powerlifting focus
>played soccer out of the womb
damn, we got a baller over ere, how did you use the placenta?
Oh I didnt understand you were a literal autist. Since you inquired I played soccer for more like the first 20y of my life 16 was actually more of an approximation
Also post your calves so I can LAUGH
>getting this butthurt
lmao, wasn't expecting that. Also who the frick trains calves
Look - most (genuine) experts will tell you that 4 times a week is about the highest frequency you should go. 5 days a week might give a tiny fraction more growth than 4 days a week, but for most people it's not worth it. Very few people would argue for 6 days a week and 7 days a week everything is just pants-on-head moronic, the illiterate village idiot.
they're a new lifter who's benching at most 2plate lol
Geoffrey Verity Schoefield is a 6' 100+kg natty and does not take rest days
What's REALLY pants on head moronic is thinking your body will just explode if you don't take rest days. They are NOT essential. You only need what you need to recover, not some stupid ass arbitrary frequency of doing nothing. homosexual.
not natty tho so irrelevant take
>not natty
Kek idiot
Imagine coping and making excuses for dudes online
Why did DYELs have this cognitive dissonance that training more frequently is going to negatively affect your development.
More volume = more progress. 24hrs is plenty of time to recover
They'll search for any excuse to work less
I train every day because I've got nothing better to do kek
>Why can't IST be consistent
>why can't an indeterminate amount of anonymous people with differing life experiences who can contradict themselves in the same thread without any recourse be consistent
You need at least 1-2 days between heavy lifts
If you do PPL, you don't ever need to take a rest day as there's 2 days between working each muscle group
If you do a full body workout 3x per week you can squeeze in an extra time per week for 2/3 of weeks of hitting each muscle group.
Of course if we're talking an hour of full body 3x a week vs an hour daily of ppl, the latter will get you way more ripped
But if you put in the same amount of hours per week, whether you split it up ppl or with rest days doesn't make all that much difference
PPLPPxx is the GOAT and I will die on that hill
I'm convinced 6-7 days a week are better. It will give you superior intensity or superior frequency compared to other program structures.
Obviously you can't do fullbody workout everyday your muscles need some rest, but you'd just do a bodypart split instead.
This allows you to hit the muscles with more intensity than a fullbody 3-day split allows for, and also allows them to recover the same amount.
For example with a body part split like this:
>Lower body day 1
>Chest/Triceps/Shoulders day 2
>Back/Biceps/Forearms day 3
>Lower body day 4
>Chest/Triceps/Shoulders day 5
>Back/Biceps/Forearms day 6
Compared to
>Full body day 1
>Full body day 3
>Full body day 6
In the full body split you simply cannot work out as intensely, since you're working so many more muscle and doing way more compounds per session.
Deadlifting, benching, squatting, overhead pressing, etc. All in one day. Multiple of these lifts will suffer in performance and therefore your gains will suffer
>what if I don't do fullbody 3 days a week, what if I do a bodypart split or PPL 3 days a week
That would be inferior to the 6 day bodypart split as well becase of frequency, you'd be working the muscles only once a week instead of twice. Frequency is just as important as intensity and volume, for some muscles more important than both (like calves and neck)
Dogshit post, your own arguments can be used against you moron. If you're hitting chest and shoulders aand triceps in the same day, something is going to suffer. Full body routines are for newbie lifters, and ppl is the same.
>If you're hitting chest and shoulders aand triceps in the same day something is going to suffer
How? When you bench you're already hitting all these 3 muscles, they work together
Just do Bench, Overhead Press and then isolation movements after. Nothing suffers
And you can just alternate too, one day OHP first, the other Bench first so each gets more focus
>Full body routines are for newbie lifters, and ppl is the same.
They're for newbies because newbiews will makes gains very easily with suboptimal training. Not because it's the best way to workout
no, because you're not hitting prs or rep maxes on one or the other. Try rep maxing out 315 on bench then fricking immediately switch to seated dumbbell press and do the same intensity. It won't happen, and your lifts suffer, that's why you split the days up.
If your planning to max just max out bro.
Stop being a pussy
I do 6 PPLPPLR
It's simple
easy
and worst case if i have to skip one i don't really care
So if I'm gonna do pplpplx but ad an extra rest day shoukd I just send it Nd go for a pplul
