I go to gym 4 days a week.
I will go an extra 2-3 times (due to going twice a day) on some of those days because one of my best mates needs spotting / guiding and I want to help him improve so I don't want to say no and be a d*ck.
Basically, monday had chest strength main session midday then came at 8:30PM with him, did light chest, decent shoulders and today (my strength building day usually), I was struggling to rep 10kg under my usual working set.
ANYWAY, main question, how would you lot take advantage of going twice a day? Or will my body get used to going twice a day occasionally?

im not sure of your routine/goals but how about some cardio the 2nd time around. i myself go to the gym twice a day when im up at school and i usually throw in some cardio the 2nd time around while i am training someone. also if you do 2 muscles per day then why not do one muscle group the first time you go and the 2nd group the next. just a thought.

My main aim is strength. I want increased bench / deadlift and pretty much increased lift on everything. Size is like a side thing which I still care about but not as much.
Cardio sounds like a good idea I guess but your separating the muscles sounds good. I hit at least 2 groups a day so this could work.
He knows most of the stuff but like, I feel like a **** if I just stand there or jump in with some dumb weight?

Not at all, the point of coaching is to stand there and talk about the exercise, your mentality, form, mind-muscle connection, what it does exactly...I drink a sh*tload of water when I train my friend, cause i'm constantly explaining fundamentals and principles that will help him later.
idec if he listens or not, I just like to brainflex infront of him.be a lot cooler if you did
