Is there any point going to the gym if you can only go once or twice a week?
>>
yes. you can make a little progress going once a week, and two is fine, although not optimal
>>
>>40871054
Yeah. Just dont expect to get maximum gains
>>
>>40871054
If you only go once a week I'd do an intense full body workout with lots of volume
>>
>>40871054
No, I go 5 days a week and even my gains are slow as fuck
>>
Go to the gym twice a week, do squat, deadlift, bench, maybe OHP, and then do calisthenics the rest of the time. If you do your cardio aswell you will get prison ripped but have joocy glutes at the same time.
>>
Alphadestiny's naturally enhanced program is twice a week. You can also run his free novice program twice a week. Basically 1-2x a week full body with calesthenics as the other anons mentioned

You should go 7 days a week.
>>
>>40871351
This

If I miss a day my gains pretty much stop >>40871351

>not going 9 days a week
>>
>>40871054
2 Times per week fullbody and you make 90% of possible gains if your program is not absolute shit
>>
3 times a week with high volume full body and a rest day between days works fine. I don't pin and my body reacts to this the best.

If you have crazy muscle repair rate you could probably do 4-5 times a week full body, but I wouldn't push it, as you won't be as productive per lift.
>>
>>40871351
No, you shouldn't.

Rest days are important your CNS

I was born in the gym and there I've stayed my whole life.

I've made plenty of gains going twice a week.
>>
>>40871062

>>
>>40871351
>not going 7 weeks a day
implying you will ever make it, brah
>>
>>40872635
he's an advanced lifter tho
>>
>>40872635
>Alphadestiny
I take that as a no
>>
>>40871054
of course. you can even go a bit harder than usual because you have plenty of time to recover. this could be both a good and a bad thing.
