I go 5-6x a week.

Just depends how my body is feeling, how I slept, etc.

I let my body guide me.

100 pound DB shoulder pressesx10\
225x28 barbell bench
405x10 deadlift
405 bench press

as a natty 2 or 3x a week is more than enough

youd be better off doing calisthenics and really high rep stuff at home

If you go every other day you will be at the gym 4-5 times a week.

I go zero days a week since my surgery. I do upper at home a couple days a week and my PT exercises for knee almost every day.

I go 5-6 days a week. Its an excuse to leave the house, also weather is chit and not much else to do.

If I'm not feeling the weights I just do cardio

I go 3 in a row, then 1 rest day. Been that way for years now. Comes out to 5.5 (sometimes 5, sometimes 6) gym days a week.

Exceptions are if I'm sick, somehow wake up way too late, on vacation, life gets in the way. Probably safer to say 5 days a week.

Every day of the week though, including rest days, I'll do 15x35lbs dumb bell curls for each arm, 30 pushups, 45 crunches. Just something I always do.

I lift 4 days and swim the other 3. As I train at home, it's much easier to fit it in every day.
Screw nature; my body will do what I DAMN WELL tell it to do!

The only dangerous thing about an exercise is the person doing it.

They had the technology to rebuild me. They made me better, stronger, faster......
