I'm still confused on something. The traditional plan of HIT has you work out 3x week (every other day and then a rest of two days.)
I hear many mention that if you could spread that over more days it's actually better. Currently I have the time now to spread it out to four or five days per week (leaving weekends off since the gym is close to my work.)
Is it more beneficial to switch to a 4 or 5day/week workout? If so how does it change the exercises you do and/or the weight increment changes?
Currently I'm alternating between the two workouts:
A
--
Overhead Press
Squat
Flat Bench
Bent Over Rows
B
--
Dead Lifts
Incline Bench
Pull Downs
Upward Row
On each of the days, I'll often throw in some ancillary bis or tris work depending on my mood and often some ab work.
