I just kind of always felt that trying to train such a large muscle like back on the same day of chest that one of them is going to suffer. Yeah you're using completely opposite muscles but you're going to tire out faster. I mean I guess if you're switching back and forth between exercises like doing bench press for four sets then doing four sets of pull-ups you may work the muscles more evenly. But if you go into it and do 16 or 20 sets of chest and then go try to work your back, back workout is definitely going to suffer. I try to separate and put chest and shoulders on the same day back on one day and then legs on another

I can t figure it out for myself, I spend so much time for each muscle group so if I exercise 5 times a week I still spend a day for leg, for abs, for arms, for back, for chest; I tried putting a lower body muscle group with a upper body muscle group but I do it very intense so for the second one it s gonna have a big performance drop; what can i do? I also lift heavy for my body weight so I take BIG rest times between each set so I can do the all reps. Please help if you have any tips or experiences (btw I know what he s saying in the vid but I just find it very hard to spread it out in two times a week )

I ended up working out twice a week, due to my work schedule. However, if I'm off the whole week, then it's a chance or possibility that I'd workout 4 or 5 days the entire week. I always love to do it in the morning because it's a lot easier and better.
Overall, I always like to workout on my free time.

I work out every day no matter what, I could be busy doing something and calisthenics would cross my mind. I even use the face basin and a towel to do shoulders, chest, arms and legs for another day as my routine. I m just addicted to getting in shape.

6 body parts: I do abs with any other body group. Then you have 4 body groups left. Then one day of cardio. So 6 days a week workout with one day of rest. so 6-7 hours a week. Legs takes me 2 hours by itself so 8 hours a week.

Wouldn't push-pull-legs workout work best in such case? Chest, delts and arms one day, back and arms the next day and legs with abs to finish off. One day break and repeat. 5-6 times a week. For me, it works the best

Can high blood pressure due to strenuous weightlifting cause chronic low Blood pressure especially at night for teenagers also? Is there a way to prevent such damage to heart - like taking some supplements etc?

This video only considers those doing muscle growth exercises, what about those doing cardio only? For cardio, e. g. treadmill how many times / duration is best? 1 hour x 3 / 4 / 5 times per week etc?

Number of sessions isn t as important as your total weekly volume. Most studies suggest 10-20 hard sets per week per muscle group is adequate, though that s a very general statement.

Honeslty I Think 3 to 4 times a week is probably the best range for sustainability in the long term. You can work, have a social life and time for yourself with that regiment.

I like doing a 3 day split. Shoulders, core, and glutes. Just focusing on my weaker muscle groups. I workout 6 days a week, working each muscle group twice.
