July 23rd, 2010 by Hugo RiveraPosted in Bodybuilding Training, Bodybuilding Videos
In this natural bodybuilding video blog I discuss how often you should be training each body part for maximum results!
How Often Should You Train Each Body Part?
Beginners – 3 times using a 45-60 minute full body routine
Intermediates – 2 times using a two day split.
Workout (A) – Chest/Back/Arms
Workout (B) – Shoulders/Legs
You can do
Monday/Thursday – Workout (A)
Tuesday/Friday – Workout (B)
Most people can recover from a twice a week workout frequency provided they follow a proper diet, they use the right supplements, and they rest 7-8 hours each night. Also, it is imperative to keep yourself properly hydrated drinking 0.66 x your bodyweight in ounces of water each day.
Finally, to maximize recuperation, remember to periodize your training by using higher repetitions for a few weeks, followed by some lower repetition work.
