As long as the sets/reps are low, you can train VERY frequently and recover because you're training your central nervous system. Some world class soviet teams bench 7 times per week.

in your program it says lift 3 times a week
does that mean benchpress squat and deadlift 3 times a week like this
monday
bench
squat
deadlift

wednesday
bench
squat
deadlift

friday
bench
squat
deadlift

isn’t this bad for recovery also when training for strength can you train the same body part 3 times per week.
for example squat mon wed and fri
any feedback would be greatly appreciated

Hey Caleb,

These three tips are the answer and seem very simple but they’re tough in application. For example, I’m trying to get out of the gym in under an hour, but even with HIIT and lifting, it just seems to take more than an hour. I’ve tried tweaking it by incorporating Craig Ballantyne’s turbulence training in addition to compound exercises. It’s not like I’m working out for two hours, but I’m not in that 30-45 minute range. Thoughts?

Thanks for the post!

All the Best,

Andrew R
