Not me, I workout every 48 hours.
Exhaustion is not good. We gotta lift tomorrow too.
Minimum effective volume is the goal.

Meh, these "new gym goers" need to be more focused on showing up to the gym, doing conditioning work, eating to support their goals, and lifting with good form and progressive overload moreso than where they get their supplements, which, as noobs, should really be the last thing they're worried about.
I wonder how many newbies end up spending on supplements each year only to slaw out and not even make it eight weeks straight.
Be buying protein #Powder but don't have a plan or consistency in place, new gym brehs.

Be lazy, brehs.
I used to go 5x a week, but my body responds better to the rest, from 48 hours in between.
I just go by what works.

Just so you know, successfully completing a body recomposition has nothing to do with your routine.
I did a recomp squatting everyday with minimal assistance.
Well damn. I been said you really learn something new every day. Anyway, lemme run the routine for the next 8 weeks and I'll let you know how it's turned out.

A body recomp is about tricking your body into burning fat and building muscle at the same time, right? You're essentially bulking and cutting at the same time.
To do that you have to dial in cardio, lifting, and diet into a sweet-spot that is both anabolic and fat-burning.
Well muscles don't have brains, they don't think, they don't understand reps or body part splits or even exercise selection, they only understand tension.
Conversely, your body doesn't care if you're training a bro split or full body seven times a week when it comes to conditioning, only duration, intensity, frequency, and oxygen consumption.
You could literally use any type of split you wanted to do a recomp, as long as you dial in those three things - at the same time.
When I did mine in the desert I was working more than I've ever worked in my life (I worked like 60 something days straight, averaging about 10 hours a day) but I:
- had unlimited food (all you can eat)
- was doing 3-4 squares plus snacks and weight gainer (multiple servings)
- had enough chakra to do cardio
- was walking literally everywhere (prolly getting 15-20+k steps a day)
The absolute last thing that mattered was my split.
Wise with the Force am I.

Moar compounds.
Seriously. Broad at work seent me with the short-sleeve on and hit the
