6days is just to much, yeah maybe a pro or two use this split but they are living the bbing life style no work and eat all day and night, plus they have the super stack to go with it. Average Joe is not going to be able to handle this and even if they could they will not see any extra benift from another day. Can't put a price on rest!

My former training partner and I did this for 18 months. Neither of us is blessed with really great genetics and we both work hard for our gains. We took days off when required. I think a complete week off every 6-10 weeks is also advisable. I certainly had my best results on 6 days. Having the ability to focus on one body part at a time is a big positive.

I agree that rest is really important. But so is being open minded and having the ability to listen to the views of others. :nod:

hmm good input by all, working long hours at the moment so might just stick to 5 days a week and do chest bis shoulders tris

did quads today and took just over an hour, no way at all i could give a decent effort on hams after i had finished with quads.

It's the overall volume and intensity thats relevant, adding a day but spreading the volume will only help.
