is it okay if my workouts take 90-120 minutes. I've been watching those AthleanX youtube videos and Jeff keeps harping on over-training and how anything over like 45 minutes is bad.

I take a full day of rest in-between, but the workout just takes longer than 45 minutes. Am I an idiot?

Thanks.

Are you progressing?
If no, then you're overtraining/undereating.
>>
there's people who do 8 hour arm workouts man stop watching some sub-tier trash youtuber and taking everything he says at base value
>>
>>40610271
I would aim not to go over an hour and a half but only really because if you can go longer than that you arent going hard enough.

You shouldnt work the same muscle groups only a day apart, i think doing the same twice a week should be the max really.
>>
>>40610271
What he's saying only has legitimacy if you train how he does: almost exclusively to failure. If you do linear progression instead of training to failure then you could work out for like three hours a day.
>>
>>40610315
So what you're saying is OP isnt
>training like an athlete
>>
>>40610309
>You shouldnt work the same muscle groups only a day apart

You can and you should especially as a beginner. Thats why almost all beginner routines recommend it.
>>
>>40610373
Literally bioscience at its worst. Awful advice, recovery and healing are essential or you are just spinning your wheels.

Training biceps everyday will leave you a a dyel with shoulder problems a year in.
>>
>>40610437
>everyday
what about every other day. That's like 40-48 hrs recovery time in-between.
>>
>>40610271
According to science even 12 minutes without any breaks would be good for muscle growth.

Jeff is recommending shorter but MORE INTENSE work-outs. For him, the ideal is a challenging work-out and if it's challenging enough you shouldn't need more than one hour.

I've been following Jeff's channel for a long time but I still lift for 1.5 to 2 hours each time because I like to lift heavy and rest longer instead of Jeff's more endurance-oriented and high heart-rate training style.

So it depends on your goals: do you want an "athletic, functional" body or more swole/big/strong?

Keep your current routine but be mindful of overtraining symptoms like sleep loss, feeling weak, depression, irritability etc. Im at the gym 2 hours.

How is AxAxAx not giving your day rest?

You have to be fucking retarded. You literally just made shit up to make your argument valid. No one ever said workout every day. A full day of rest in between means the programming I showed you up top.

Wrong dude meant for >>40610437
>>
>>40610769
does overtraining really causes sleep loss? I would think that the body would crave more sleep to repair the damage
>>
>>40610868
This guy knows what's up. Anyway people make gains everyday as well. Look at
>ourguy
Clarence. He said he sometimes trains heavy legs every single day. Many programs outside of American workouts have high volume weeks. Literally doing heavy 5x a week.
>>
>>40610887
How often do you sleep in the nude?
>>
>>40610965
Ya totally man. You do that. Theres no difference between what you and Clarence can do. Youre both men, and any man can achieve what another can.

Oh just dont forget the steroids. You fucking retard.
>>
>>40610999
hey
>>
>>40610868
The body needs two days rest, not one

Faggot

>>40610999
You sound like someone who always complains others are better
>I'm a hardgainer guys!
>he's only stronger because steroids!รท!!
>it's genetics
>my knees hurt so I can't squat! !!
>I have a bad shoulder!!!
>it's not my fault I can't workout today, it's raining!!!!
You think some people are better than others which is why you'll never be better than others.
>>
>>40610700
Even though your reply was short why did you even reply to a bait post.
>>
>>40611046
>two days rest
I've been doing it wrong my whole life. Always thought one day rest. Don't know where I got that from.

So the body needs like 65-72 hours between training not 40-48, wow, sure takes muscle a long fucking time to recover.

you can work out the same muscle every other day. You'll be fine.

>>40610769
Man I feel sleepy like all the time. I feel like shit unless I sleep 10+ hours
>>
Well it depends what you are training for anon.
I spend a solid 2 hours in the gym. But I do full body because I'm getting ready for the military and I need to get that endurance up.

Usually 45 min run.
20 minutes of boxing.
30 minutes of high intensity body weight (crunches, pullups, pushups etc.)
And then some basic heavy compound lifts.
