He shared, “…today’s bodybuilders, they learn to rest more, you know, where they train body parts once a week but then I’ve heard some bodybuilders training body parts twice a week. I used to train six days a week, twice a day, you know 20 to 30 sets per body part, you know six days a week, doing the body parts twice. A lot of bodybuilders today are not doing that. They give the body more rest.”
