I'm not looking to get huge, just ripped. I've read two sources,( Mike Mentzer & John Basedow ), that work out 3 times a week. Monday, Wednesday, Friday, on a push-pull-legs routine, hitting each body part once with high intensity is enough to stimulate growth. Anyone agree ? Thanks.
Hitting each muscle group works as long as the intensity at which you perform the exercises is legitimate. for instance you should be sore for that muscle group for at least 3-5 days after performing the exercises. With me on legs, I can barely walk for 2 days after my routine which is similar to Mentzer's workout. heavy weights, low reps slow and controlled , thats the name of the game.
