Right now I am going to the gym about 4-5 times a week. I cover 6 body parts and do each one about once a week. Is this sufficient? Should I wait longer or increase it to 2X a week? Thanks

Each bodypart needs to be trained once per week. You can do abs twice per week though if you would like.Originally posted by mahon83050

That's not true. There is no scientific fact(s) to back this up.Originally posted by NEWBIE101

But you must also take into consideration that you hit some muscles indirectly while working other muscles such as biceps with back, and triceps with chest and shoulders. It can take up to 5 days for muscles to repair if you are training them intensly enough.Originally posted by KiLLer

It all depends on how you live. Meaning how you eat, sleep, and work out.
Abdominal are the same as all muscles, do not mistreat them as a different kind, what makes muscle different from other muscle?
You can work out your body 2-3 times per week (or even day) if you can seriously handle it. This means you must go on perfect diet, sleep, and so on.
Ever heard of creatines? Protein powders? Carbohydrate drinks?Originally posted by NEWBIE101

As far as abs go, it's just an opinion of mine. To me, either are right.
Yes, these products don't help speed up recovery. They just aid your muscles in building and give you energy. I've heard that Glutamine actually can help speed up recovery.Originally posted by KiLLer

Protein and carbs certainly DO help with recovery. A properly mixed post workout drink will do wonders to promote recovery and growth. A mix of protein and carbs is the minimum you should be taking post workout. As a general guideline, try a mix of 2:1 (carbs to protein) Eg, 80 of carbs - half dextrose or glucose and half maltodextrin and 40 grams of whey protein. Adding creatine will certainly help for some - personally I dont get too much out of creatine, 2.5grams of glutamine (half a teaspoon) will certainly help too.
