    3-4 times days a week? 7?

    Hi all.

    I've been training in the gym for almost 5 month now. I started off on the weight of 8.11 stone. Which i belive is 114pounds!! i'm 6ft.

    Now after a few month training i am 140pounds..not much i know!! i really need to eat more and i'm trying but it's tough at times.

    Now this is my problem, at my height and weight i should still be getting noob gains surely, i'm skinny as hell still!! i usually train 3/4/5 days a week but a freind of mine, once a very big and ripped guy, tells me i need to train harder and he was at the gym twice a day.

    I would go the gym 7 days a week to get gains!! but i'm bulking or trying to, and most people tell me to go to the gym 3-4 days a week and let my muscles recover, to much gym isn't going to give good gains!!

    What's your opinions?!

    no. you only need 3-5 days a week.
    as long as you're working every muscle you'll be fine.
    You want more gains then eat more.

    If you went to the gym 7 days a week you would be tearing your muscle every day and it would have no time to recover.
