Just heading out to the gym, i did chest and shoulders monday, wondering if it would hurt to do chest again today maybe with diff exercises (wednesday)?
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.
Days rest between chest

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

twice a week maximum IF you do all the necessaries to help recovery (cardio, stretching, LOTS of food, glutamine if you believe in it etc, etc)
otherwise just stick to once a week
your chest depends on your back and legs getting bigger to grow anyway

It depends on your goals. If you are trying to get ready for a BB comp, then you might lift chest twice a week. If you are just trying to get into shape or are trying to bulk up, hitting each bodypart HARD once per week should be more than enough.

You can make excelent gains by just working each muscle once a week (abs and calves can be worked more, but they're the exception). Divide it up into three sessions a week.
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

How many times you work your chest in a week depends on the intensity. You could hit it once a week and annhialate it. Or you could train it 3 times a week, but with less intensity.
Hitting everything HARD once per week should genereally work for everyone if ur doing everything right. I'd recommend at least 2 days rest for chest, more if its still sore.
I used to do once per week for everything but now I'm doing full body twice a week to switch it up: heres my current program (using Brandon Curry's), I'd recommend it to ppl with a couple years experience to shock your body-
Day 1: Chest & Back & Shoulders (Hypertrophy)
Day 2: Legs & Arms (Strength)
Day 3: Rest
Day 4: Chest, Back, Shoulders (Strength)
Day 5: Arms (Hypertrophy)
Day 6: Legs (Hypertrophy)
Day 7: Rest
On Hypertrophy days I do about 7-12 sets per bodypart, using rest-pause techniques on some exercises. On Strength Days, I do 1 HARD exercise per bodypart (e.g. Legs-Full Squats, Lats- Barbell Rows, Chest-Bench Press) 5x5's or 7 sets of 4 reps.
Throw in some abs and cardio when u want to. Getting results from this after only 1 week!

Your chest is the minor 'big' muscle in your body, and relies on your legs and back growing to grow itself.\O/ said:
Want a big chest? Squat and deadlift.
While we're at it: Want big arms? Squat and deadlift.
Want big shoulders? Squat and deadlift.

google for itHockey Playa said:
how long have you been training!?
"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"
Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.
She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.
Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.
So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.
The words come later. The impression comes first.
