How many times?
Right now, and for the next 15 workouts I'm going with 1 day each muscle group, once a week (I go to the gym 5 days a week, since I want to do a lot of cardio).
I train each upper body muscle groups in the body but on different days and I do legs and abs at any given day of the week too.
But what would be optimal??
Doing each muscle group twice, or once like I am doing now?

well, there are different cases
you could train them each 3x a week if you were on a full body split(because yo'ure doing a LOW volume for each muscle group-2-3sets at most for each group)
but for most other cases, once a week is optimal. remember, a muscle has 2 days- primary and auxilary(e..g,. biceps primary day is bicep day, then auxilary day is upper back day). if you train each muscle 2x a week, then actually you're training it 4x a week(primary+auxilary)Booo
