Is it OK to hit the same muscle group back to back days?

Thinking about lifting heavy the first day then going lighter volume work on the second day.
Thoughts?

If you are truly lifting heavy on day 1 it wouldn't be ideal to hit that muscle group immediately again without allowing some recovery.

No, that's not a good idea. why would you "go lighter" the next day instead of just adding more volume to the training day?

Every day is leg day

Recovery is as important as the workout

Doesn't squatober involve squatting 5 days a week? How can you truly recover from that well enough to perform?

No.
It prevents hypertrophy.

The load is varied each day. It's not like you're going for a PR every day.

I’ll let Jim Wendler know that some of his templates are wrong

Gonna rustle some jimmies here but I wouldn't call squatober ideal programming. It's fun to do for the community aspect and people do get good gains from switching to high frequency for a bit. But I certainly wouldn't call it ideal. It's only 4 weeks so it doesn't really matter though

I’ll raise your rustle, no one here needs to worry about CNS fatigue. Our numbers are all trash. The thing we should do if running high frequency is change the movement a little.
ETA: I did run Bulgarian method a couple years ago and I had no issues at all. I squat 5-6 days a week. Did it for 6 months. Again, my numbers were trash so no problem

No, because if you’re lifting heavy and you do it right, you won’t be able to work the same muscle group the next day, even light weight will hurt

If you're thinking about it, you're probably going to do it anyway. Let us know your results.

I've heard some people doing these every so often to shock the muscle so to speak. Probably not good to do frequently.

Full body splits every time I workout
