    Are rest days required at all??

    I had a few minutes, so I searched around for the previous posts that led me to my current 6x per week schedule. And I can't repeat or even understand all of what is discussed, so go here and read them: HS:Forum Home > Training > HST FAQ and find the threads titled "Training...

    Are rest days required at all??

    Cap, what I have read here and on thinkmuscle.com seems to suggest that a 6x/week routine is better than a 3x/week routine because of the timing of the workouts and how they create an additive effect.

    Re: Lowering volume if training 6x/wk vs 3x

    I have read conflicting information regarding the volume if you are training 6x/week vs 3x/week. If I plan on training 6x/wk, should I halve my volume as compared to a 3x/wk schedule? I.e., maybe one set per exercise each day on the 6x as opposed to 2 sets per on the 3x schedule. Some posts have...
