For fastest results...

Just a question I've been wondering. Anyone rate doing exercises twice on your 'on' days? You know the way you hear about some people who have to get in shape quickly or I've heard a few people say about it for comps. It would be totally draining but possibly if you worked opposing muscles and COULD do it anyone think that it's get more bang for your buck?
Looking to work out how I could squeeze out the biggest gains in 1 month with a plan including compounds and basic free-weight exercises n eating as much of the food I need as poss.
Cheers

Best gains in a month...? Building muscle takes time amigo...

i doubt that you will notice any differance in 1 month in terms of visual appearance, 1 month is practically nothing mate, patience is key.

Christophe

It's not that I'm looking to change overnight. It was more a theoretical question, my buddy n me were talking about the exercise progs that you see some actors go on etc.
When I got into training before it took months before I noticed differences so I know what to expect, thanks for the caution heads-up though

Any thoughts on the 2 exercises a day though out of interest?

Some will be 'assisted', some will just lean up / get fit

Are you talking about a double split?

AM/PM type? or doing a bodypart 2x a day?

BigAndyJ

By on days do you mean days when you feel energetic and strong?

I would say it could work - my gains seem to come in spurts rather than consistently over a few months.

Christophe

Yeah I was meaning 'on' days assuming you were doing a one on, one off, say mon-fri.
I did mean am/pm but also i thought well it would be hard to do it same muscles (if not impossible) so I imagine it would be different muscle groups.

wogihao

hmmm well a 5/6 day am/pm split is what some people do year round others do it just for contests.

It depends on the person and there style of training.

I would say you need to work up to that level of volume though. like build it up gradualy.

And to be honest alot of the people doing routines like that are either doing it for short periods (like what was said prepareing for a film) or are on the cell tech.

If you've read up on the training that Gerard Butler and the other cast members of the movie 300 then you'd get a pretty good insight into transforming the male body from standard to buff in a short space if time.But when i use the word 'short' i'm talking 6 - 8 months.To sqeeze out the biggest gains in only 1 month would mean taking on quite a regime.And even then the results would be extremely minimal.
