the thing about lifting 6-7 days a week is that I vary lifting style/cardio form/length ALOT. Rowing vs running, intense >3rm, circuits at 20 reps, oly lifts, supersets, giant sets, complexes... many ways to excercise without overtaxing the body/cns in one specific way

Mon. Chest
Tues. Back
Wed. Bicep/Tricep (basically arms)
Thurs. Legs
Fri. Pump Sets excluding legs
Sat/Sun. One of the two off, I lift whatever I feel didn't get hit hard enough during the week.

Lots of factors can play into how often you should lift.
To name a few:
Age
Are you on cycle
Sleep
Diet

It all depends on your goals.

Hahah yeah that's how I view it, I rest the entire time I'm not in the gym... or playing basketball..
