How many times a week should you workout to build muscle and burn fat? Is three days a week best or 7? How often should you lift weights and do cardio? If you're wondering how many days a week you should be training to get maximal results, watch this video. Working Out 7 days a Week: 0: 24 Forward Momentum: 1: 37 Muscle Groups: 2: 08 Over-Reaching: 3: 04 Rest Day or Week: 3: 24 Strict Strength Gains: 3: 42 Routine: 4: 09 Split Training: 5: 16 Hypertrophy: 5: 40 Strength & Full Body: 5: 55 Fat Loss: 6: 06 How many times a week should you workout to achieve the fastest and best results possible? That's a question that I'm asked almost on a daily basis. Should I workout every single day should I only work out 3 times a week what's the best method? Well im today's video I'm going answer this question in a way that'll end this debate once and for all. Let's start by taking a look at the pros and cons of working out more frequently. Is there a benefit of working out 7 days a week? Most people would say no because you're not giving your body any time to recover and Recovery is when your muscles grow. However an instant benefit of working out everyday is the insane forward momentum that you're going to generate. People very rarely consider the impact of momentum on their Fitness routine. You guys have heard an object in motion stays in motion unless acted on by an external force and the same thing vice versa an object at rest stays at rest again unless acted on by an external force. Well when you work out 7 days a week contrary to popular belief it's super easy to never miss workouts. The main reason why is because we're creatures of habit and another reason why is because you have to spend zero time debating about whether to work out that day or not. So you don't tax any willpower. It's just a set part of your day everyday you go to the gym and you get your workout in, no questions asked. It's just part of your routine, your habits that you engage in every single day. Believe it or not this can be super powerful I've done both working out 3 days a week and working out 7 days a week and believe it or not sometimes it was harder for me to make it to my 3 days a week then it was for me to make it to the gym every single day. And this is again attributed only to forward momentum. Momentum is something that's not really talked about enough and it's a shame because it really matters. To illustrate the power of momentum the reverse of working out everday would be not working out for let's say the last year. I think we can all agree that getting your butt back into the gym after not working out for a year is about a billion times harder then getting to the gym after not working out for a day. The reason for that is because of momentum. Another advantage of working out everyday is that you have the ability of hitting your muscle groups more frequently. So if you're trying to build muscle especially as a natural, to stimulate protein synthesis you're going to have to work out more frequently. The best results that I've gotten in regard to building muscle have always come from hitting each of my muscle groups twice a week. Whenever I would try to hit my muscle groups once a week my progress would slow down. With a split routine like chest and back on one day legs on the next day and then biceps triceps and shoulders on the third day you can just take a day off and repeat that for a second time within one week. This will cause your muscles to get twice the amount of stimulation allowing you to build muscle faster as a natural lifter. So working out more frequently like 6 days a week or even every day does have a lot of benefits but there are cons as well. If you work out everyday you're going to have a really tough time on the days that you're inevitably sore from one of your previous workouts. This could eventually lead to what's called over-reaching which is the precursor to overtraining. When you start over reaching and eventually when you over-train it's like hitting a wall. all your energy is gone and you start getting less and less returns even though you're putting in more and more work at the gym. That's why even if you are working out everyday you should plan an occasional rest day or even a full week of rest. Resting for a week could really do you a lot of good. You may be surprised when you come back even stronger because you let your body fully recover. Speaking of strength, working out more frequently is probably not the best strategy for strict strength gains. If you're trying to go more so for powerlifting strength gains. 3 days a week will probably be way better of a st

The fastest way to gain muscle mass for any natural bodybuilder is this.
D1 - Chest/Triceps
D2 - Back/Biceps
D3 - Legs/Shoulders
D4 - Off
D5 - Chest/Triceps
D6 - Back/Biceps
D7 - Legs/Shoulders
When training back to back the push/pull routine is absolute best to avoid overtraining (example if you train back on Tuesday you cant train biceps on Wednesday hence why you do back/biceps on the same day.

The human body is designed to workout everyday and you will find this where people that have physical jobs that require effort, but having said that the work is usually less muscle specific and more total body with more variation which spreads out the effort and more importantly, muscle strain.
Depending on the workout, one can cause as much or less damage or strength/build in 3 days vs. a whole week.

I workout 7 days a week. Full body split over four days. By the time I get back to workout number 1 of 4, my muscles have recovered and are ready to go. I workout at home, if I had to drive to a gym everyday I don't think I would stick with it. I might visit a gym for inspiration once in awhile, lol.

I once tried doing workouts everyday for months, i saw faster results but also ended up with an injury which took me about a month and a half to recover from. Now i only do 4x a week which seems to be the right balance for me since i haven't had any injury nor do i feel tired.

Put it this way: if youre watching this video, youre doing something right anyways. Lots of people are sedentary and dont exercise. For a regular exerciser myself, the gym is more of a psychological victory going 6-7 days a week, even if Im not overdoing it two of those days.

6 days a week with my daily double dose of Woke AF Black, I am always up for the gym. I rest one day because I learned the hard way that I have to let my muscles recover for growth.
