I have been training with this guy now for a few months and have had some pretty decent results. He is a good bit stronger than I and has been training for a few more years than I have. But the problem I have been having is he trains for to long. I mean on chest/tri day, it takes at least two hours to get through the workout. We will do 6 -7 exercises for chest and usually 4 for tris. I have had some pretty good gains but it seems like we are over training. I have always read and been told you should be lifting weights for 1.5 hours tops and should only do 4-5 exercises for big muscle groups and 3-4 for smaller ones. The question I am getting at is "how long should we be training for and how many exercises should we do per muscle groups?" Also, I am now cutting for the summer time and am more focused on loosing weight than getting bigger. Is working out for a long time going to hinder my fat loss? Also does anyone know any articles I can read that talk about length of workout and/or how execises per muscle group.
