how long does it take to recover while on cycle?
ad
i hit every muscle group once a week. while on cycle is this not enough. im at the end of my first cycle and have some good gains but i def want to maximize my time one cycle. ive read both that once a week is enough and that you cant over train while on cycle. i could use some experienced opinions.

My basic philosophy is isolation. Muscle is built by provoking catabolism. This is done by flooding blood into a muscle to the point that the muscle tissue starts to break down. Muscle is built when your immune system starts to rebuild that muscle, this is referred to as anabolism. Keep in mind that when you double or triple your test levels it will double or triple your immune system's ability to heal.
The body only has so much blood, on chest day I'm going to push as much of that blood into my pecs as possible. The fat stored closet to that muscle group will be processed first for recovery.
Cardio is used to hit an overall calorie burn.
thanks that was helpful. im not sure about my calorie intake. my diet is not on point. i think i eat too much. i wasnt concerned with it on this cycle because i was trying to bulk. i dont eat junk food or sugar. i eat 3 meals a day and then in between i keep a bowl of hard boiled eggs that i rip every couple hours. i eat veggies and fruit and take protein shakes when i can. before bed i have a casein protein shake. i have a couple months to plan my next cycle so i want to start figuring it out now.
monday- chest, triceps
tues- biceps, back
wed- legs, shoulders, abs
thurs- chest, triceps
fri- biceps, back
then an optional sat legs, shoulders, abs with cardio everyday
does this look like a good routine?
im at the end of this cycle but i want to hit it harder next cycle.
Just depends on what your goal is. What are you hitting for dly calorie intake. That split is going to burn some calories. I'm assuming 3-4 exercises per muscle group.
There no such thing as over training on a cycle. Only under eating. If your split is set right.
Every day good but if u even do 4. A week ullbe good all about diet too
You can train body parts twice a week but you may feel tired and overtrained for the first few weeks but your body will adapt to it
Lamb of God. period.
my original question was about music but i noticed that someone else had already asked about that. so i thought i would ask about another topic on my mind. thanks for the reply
oh sure make me look like the asshole. LOL just kidding. but seriously, the answer to your first question is Lamb of God. They kick ass. Wrote that in the other post too.
