workout twice a day? - Monday, April 07, 2003 3:39 PM
Here' s the deal. I' ve been working out 5 days a week for 4 months now. Weekends off. (I work out at my employer' s gym - closed on weekends).

This weekend I picked up a doorway chin bar as I' ve heard they are great for overall upperbody gain.

Mainly I was wondering how I should work this in...

Would it be alright to do chin bar excercises on the mornings of my upper body day? (the rest of the workout will come approximately 10 hours later)

yes working out twice a day is fine as long as you get adequte rest in between the 2 workouts.. 10 hours is fine.. as long as your not doing something really active inbetween

If you can train twice in one day you didn`t train hard enough in the first workout.Curb your enthusiasm ,you only grow when at rest.

I even get asked if I train a bodypart more then once a week. After an intense leg workout, or chest.. there is no way I' m ready 3 days later for that again. My personal training schedule is, one particular bodypart per week. You grow when you aren' t in the gym. So it stands to reason that the more time you are in the gym, is less time you are resting and eating in order for your body to recoup.

There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing
