How many days a week should I train?

Plans

The best frequency depends on your experience, recovery, and availability. More days does not always mean better training.

Recommended steps

  • If you are starting out, 2 or 3 well-executed days may be enough.
  • If you already train regularly, 3 or 4 days allow more structure.
  • Leave easy days or rest between intense sessions.
  • Do not copy plans from people with more time or experience.
  • Prioritize being able to follow the plan for several weeks in a row.
  • If fatigue builds up, reduce before you break down.
