DeFranco's 5 Rules
1 – Train Three Days Per Week
"Recovery is the key to strength and looking good," says DeFranco. "You can't come into the gym sore because you won't have the strength or endurance you need for the workout."

But is three days really enough?

"If you're busting your ass and doing the right things, it is. Even if I had a guy who won the lottery and told me he could train as much as I wanted him to, I'd still keep him on the three-day schedule."

Is he right?

My friend this is all it says.
Any workout regimen that works the full body 2-3x per week using a few sets of low repetition compound movements, adding weight periodically is optimum for beginners. You will gain a load of strength and size which is great for a beginner aiming to look better and stay healthy and in shape.

We want to be jacked and shredded so is steroids and working out 6x a week the best option or is 3x a week as DeFranco says contrary to all bodybuilders virtually the best option?

I don't know of any top tier strength athlete or body builder, roided or natty, that only trains 3 days week. Pretty much everybody does 4-6 days a week. Some go every day, and just manage their fatigue on a day-to-day basis, taking rest days when they feel it's necessary.

Does yo yo ma play the cello 3x a week?

A: fuck no retard, he sleeps with the thing

You do realise that he is ripped and has a FFMI of Frank Zane at his peak? It just does not show in the picture, you have to see him in real life.
