Point that muscles need to rebuild/repair is valid tho True that... alternating muscle groups is good and works. It takes up time for me and I hate writing down what I do to keep track. So I always believed in one day on and one day off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The exercise ratio should be at least three times a week and never more than five times a week. The sweet spot for most is four times a week. Spot on... and even then.. you're probably working the same muscle group twice a week anyway... but there are days where you absolutely have to just rest...
