I'm after some guidance. I'm currently 3/4 times a wk usually EOD
Monday-Chest/bicep
Wed-Back/triceps
Fri-Shoulders/traps
I would do legs either on wed or fri and occasionally Sunday. But generally hitting each body part once.
I'm want to increase frequency hopefully for better gains. At the moment all body parts recover pretty fast. 3 days or so and they feel g2g again except legs.
If I hit my legs hard it's 5 or 6 day before I could consider hitting them to the same extent again. So leg work outs usually fluctuate from wk to wk. After a wk of sore and stiff legs its hard to inflict that again.
So im interested in any experience with decreasing volume and increasing frequency. Usually 48 hrs after work out muscle soreness peaks then over the next 24 returns to feel fine again.(apart from legs).
So would I be best to wait until muscle feel fully recovered and decrease volume to allow muscle to repair quicker?
Is there a sweet spot for hitting muscles?
