Lifting Weights Everyday?

[Perfect Plex]

Would this be overworking my muscle groups? Would it stunt my muscles gaining size or can it be done?

Well if you're trying to look like a body builder, you can train 1 muscle group per week. So in example.

Monday- chest
tesday - back
weds- legs
thurs- biceps/ tris
friday- shoulders/ abs.

However if you box , lifting weights will slow you down a bit because its muscle break down

Yea you can't lift the same muscle groups everyday. When you lift weights, your muscles kind of tear, and regrow bigger and stronger, but they need 1-2 days to recover to be able to do so.

So lifting the same muscle groups is bad.

[SOPH~ REP.]

Everyday can be done only the right way with supplements cuz your body needs to recover,plus your will burn out faster that way.This all depends on work load too,but all depends on your GOAL ....

just make sure you7re not working out the same muscle group everyday. for example if you do biceps then don't train them the next day.

this sums it up^^^^

recovery is important for buillding strenth size and muscle

It depends, are you going for functional strength or are you bodybuilding?

If you are going for functional strength i always say lift every other day, so do upper body one day, lower body the next mixed with cardio.

Think about it, if you are a roofer you are lifting rolls of felt and lpg cannisters up a ladder all day every day, if you are a farmer you are lugging hay bails about all day every day, etc etc eventually it becomes easy because you built functional strength in the muscles that activity uses. they dont do it one day a week. in my opinion and experiance one rest day after lifting is enough for the muscles to regroup, and i got far stronger a lot faster lifting this way than i did the once a week thing

If you want to build bodybuilding muscles that look big and impressive then do it once a week but be warned this is NOT functional strength and you will have ****e stamina doing it this way

What results are you going for? Are you lifting to help sport of pure size and look?

Lifting weights such as one part a day 4/5 days a week will slow you down. Also, repping at 8-12 reps slow you down also. You want to keep workouts brief (2 or 3 days a week), work on the body as ONE unit and work at a rep range on 1-7 reps. This will INCREASE SPEED!
