Is lifting 2 times a day too much?

[Mario21]

I lift for about 45 minutes in school at 11 am then later at 9 or 10 pm I lift again in the gym for about 1-2 hours and I work out everyday but the weekends. I heard that it's unhealthy but it's an adiction now lol it just helps clear my mind from shit going on

Also should I just cut down on the time at least?

[anonman32]

i used to work out 3 muscles groups a day, shoulders, biceps and triceps on day 1 and back, chest, back and legs on day 2, on day 2 i would train chest and back in the morning and legs in the evening. this allowed me to hit every muscle group once every 2 days, or 6 times a week. on the last day of the week i would do many stretches, cardio and yoga. and on the days that i didn't train legs i did cardio as well. oh yeah, and i drove 17 kilometers with my bicycle every day to my job as a welder which was a heavy job, i drove to the gym as well with my bicycle, or something i would run to it and run back as well.

a bit of advice, if you plan on working out 2 times a day EAT SUFFICIENT CALORIES. not for your body, but for your mind. if you dont eat enough your brain goes in starvation mode and you start doing and thinking some really, really weird shit.

my bed was broken down and i had to sleep on a couple blankets on the floor during this period, there were some administration problems with my employer so i wasn't getting paid at the time. then i had a mental break down and i had to quit everything. i am still recovering.

go ahead and work out 2 times a day, i recommend it, but check with your doctor first and build yourself a rigid diet plan before you do.

This is good advice, i was going to cycle to my college every day i needed to go (3-4 times a week) 15 miles, and considering i work out every day and cycle around 20km a day i think i'll take your advice, i had noticed yesterday, i wasn't feeling all together, i was much more snappy and angry and couldn't think straight. good advice, thanks man.

Building muscle only works if your rate of muscle regrowth is faster than your rate of muscle damage. Working out too often and not getting enough amino acids to rebuild will result in losses.
Ideally you want to workout 4 times a week focusing on different muscle groups (chest, back, lower body, etc.) to build.

[front2back]

So no, don't lift twice a day

[Mario21]

Thanks I guess even working out can be a harmful addiction.

When you Work out every day, @Mario21, it actually can Damage your Muscles and cause Micro-Tears of the Muscles. You can Acquire what is Referred to as "Over Training Syndrome."
Twice a week is fine, hun.
Good luck. xx

[Paris13]

Maybe 30 minutes at a time is fine. I would imagine you are already Fit as a fiddle. xx

[Mario21]

I am fit but my main purpose is to relax and enjoy the burn 😛

... twice a week? I work out everyday lol

[Paris13]

Oh, I see, okay... In between Works out, do Meditation, this will help. However, from what I am Researching, the Advice is good that I gave to you and maybe with Every day, you could go Every day but cut Down your Work out time. xx

@mario21, Thank you so much for your own Vote of Confidence, and I am quite Confident you will do your own Homework as you Stay Fit as a Fiddle. xx

[Mario21]

Thank you you're so sweet :)

[Paris13]

Oh, thank you, hun, and so are you for sure. xxoo

don't over work your muscles, eventually you become sore faster an its gonna suck because your body is having difficulty recovering. 2 times a day not needed.

1 workout is fine & if you have a problem sleeping cause your sore from lifting get NightCap by SNAC supplements it will help you sleep. BodyBuilding. com

[Decentguy]

if your working out 2 times a day then use some protein supplements and take at least 2 scoops.
but still i won't recommend you to workout w times a day

[Polocrew]
