| Re: Overworking and recovery time For one thing, it varies from person to person. Some folks just recover faster than others. For example, older lifters tend to need more time to recover. I know I used to recover faster when I was younger.
The other factor is the volume of your workouts. Assuming that you are not doing a high reps on each set, you are not doing a ton of volume. To me, that would mean you could work out more frequently than someone who does marathon workouts with tons of sets and reps. I would think you could use a 2 day recovery time.
On a side note, I would tend to do fewer benches and more legs to balance things out. After all, your legs are half of your body...yet you are only devoting 18% of your sets to working them. |
