    Okay so I know you can’t train arms everyday etc when on AAS but can you train say 6 times a week no problem ?? Say upper body twice then lower body once, for example
    Monday: chest & tris
    Tuesday: back & bi’s
    Wednesday: legs
    Thursday: delts & traps
    Friday: tri’s & bi’s & forearms
    Saterday: legs
    Sunday: rest !
    Each session about 60-70 minutes, my aim is to add at least 1 inch around arms as they really struggle to gain size !! Cycle is 650mg test & 700mg deca

    Sergio Oliva a TrueMaxder known as "The Myth" was working 10-12 hour days at the steel mill and putting in another 2–3 hours at the gym. Whether he knew of the term "over training" or it was an irregular genetics and insane commitment to training.

    And I brought up CNS suppression because that is what people are referring to when they talk about overtraining…..

    Overtraining is possible but its not going to happen in a week….. It is something that is cumulative and adds up over extended periods of time……

    But I suppose it depends what one means by overtraining…. The term is used loosely

    You can over-train a muscle group if you submit it to hypertrophy again before it is fully recovered, plain and simple.

    No rocket science here.

    At my age, (46) overtraining is a very real and needs to be avoided. I always take at least 2 rest days a week. The worst mistake is holding the program of an advanced lifter when you’re still beginner or intermediate. It’s not about how much you lift or what you do that defines beginner, intermediate or advanced its how quickly you can recover from the stressors training places on your body. A beginner usually recovers in 24-48 hrs, and intermediate may take a week to fully recover, and advanced lifters can take a month or more to recover from the stress placed that’s necessary to drive progression.

    I like your split OP. Not a big fan of Back and Legs back to back though. There is a point of over-training. What you have suggested isn’t over-training. I use to work out six days religiously. Now I am down to 4-5 a week. Just cant hang like I could in my twenties.

    Because you get tired and workouts become increasingly ineffective.

    Well, you didnt make that very clear earlier, lol. I misunderstood. When you said 45 minutes to a muscle, that would be an hour and a half for Chest/Tri day for example.
