What muscles groups do you hit 3 times a week?

[KevJr88]

Currently hitting everything twice a week. But I was wondering if there was anything that you benefit from if you hit maybe three times a week? Goals = improve strength and size

Monday legs
tuesday back/bi
wed chest/should/tri
thurs leg
fri back/bi
sat chest
sun rest

I squat 3x a week though I split it up into heavy (back squat), medium (front squat) and light (overhead squat) days. I also do pullups 3x a week but never to failure.

I guess my point is that if you're upping your training frequency to you shouldn't go heavy every time or your body won't be able to recover. What exactly constitutes sufficient recovery is individual and is for you to find out for yourself.

If there's a lift that you'd like to get strong at as fast as possible, then do that. Lots of people bench 3x a week...just don't go heavy every time (i.e. monday - heavy, low reps. wednesday - light/focus on form. friday- moderate)

I do pullups 3-4x a week to get better at them, only going to failure on one day, and my back has been growing like crazy. I've never gotten stretchmarks before, but I have some huge ones on my lats now.

edit: also, some people do calves and abs 3x a week

Squat 3x a week

[MARKYTYSON]

I dont hit anything 3x a week apart from Abs.

I do a body part every 5 days, lifting low rep range and heavy. Works for me, has done for 9 years.

I’ve started doing more pullups. They are amazing for the back and arms. I do them about 2-3 times a week.

Squat 3x a week

Same here. At least on the current routine (Madcow 5x5).

[Mr.Cooper69]

Used to hit every core lift 3x a week except for deads. Starting 2 days ago, hitting nothing 3x a week (layne nortons split)

[DJAuto]

None directly. Primarily arms and shoulders indirectly.

[JOSEF RAKICH]

Nothing..
