Thats it in a nutshell to be honest.

There is a big difference weather your assited or not to this argument also.

True, how can you fight it, whatever works for you. Personally i train when i want, i dont have any set days anymore or any set workouts.

My last traing night was last Wednesday, ill be training tonight. Its whatever works for you dude or how committed you wanna be and how much time you wanna spend in the gym.

i have a little girl and i never train on the nights i have her which is Tue, Thu, Sat & Sun so as you can see dont leave much left for training, but im more determined that i dont end up a slave to weights.

Ja.

Assisted recovery time will make a huge difference. Maybe we need a Natty/Non-Natty view...?

Who's the biggest, baddest Natty on here...?

I'm sure NeilR is/was training twice per week at the moment...

INTENSITY IS THE KEY. low volume/high volume doesn't matter , it's the intensity of a workout that matters.

Very true.

But am I right in thinking you don't rate training twice per week?

Intensity is key i agree, but you cant train high volume and train intense.

You can rather train hard or you can train long, you cant do both

i beg to differ bulldozer. there's no reason volume training can't be every bit as intense as low volume heavy duty training.
the obvious camparison is ronnies style of training versus cutlers style.both very intense both very different.
intensity has nothing to do with the weight used it's how taxing it is on the target muscle.
