If it's DC then you hit everything 3 times every 2 weeks. Not everything 2 times a week.

maybe it would ve stupid for you, but i know (personally) two INBF pros that hit it 7 days a week. it all depends on your genetics. look at how dorian yates trained in comparison to ronnie. i've even done the 7 days a week think with success (i'm now doing 6). bottom line is that my psysique and others that i know physiques are indications that it depends solely on the individual.
 


The real deal...

And 99% of the world doesn't have genetics that can benefit from 7 day a week training. If you are in that 1% go for it, but the saying still goes "You don't get bigger in the gym, you get bigger from recovering from it"

3 day / fullbody - HST currently.
1on/1off/1on/1off/1on/2off/repeat
w/progressive load

Feels nice always having a pump all over.
Workouts have never been more intense either.
I hardly have to do any cardio this way, I keep it very minimal.

20-30 Min. Cardio 6x week

I'm deployed to Iraq right now, so I have the time. Usually not this extensive back home, so I'm doing it while I can. How about "cheat meals" or "cheat days", I usually eat whatever I want on Sundays. I eat very clean through the week, so I can afford to.
 


In order to succeed, your desire for success must be greater than your fear of failure.
