The Danger of Twice a Week Body Part Training for Athletes

The Danger of Twice a Week Body Part Training for Athletes

As of now, there is a massive error being made in the world of fitness, sports and academia when it comes to adding lean body mass and strength in general. It used to be incredible to me that all of these experts cannot use logic, reason and empirical evidence to come to the obvious method for strength and hypertrophy training.
    Doctors are most of the time woefully ignorant in the methods to induce hypertrophy if they even
 recommend it at all. "Exercise" is not specific enough to elicit a relief in patients in an acceptable amount of time. The current protocol from doctors is "Go to the gym", from exercise physiologists "3-5 sets at 80% of max tempo blah, blah blah, from strength and conditioning coaches more of the same. From bodybuilders and gym rats its the routines of the top pros over the decades.
    I have chosen to carry on the torch of Dr. Elington Darden, Arthur Jones, mike Mentzer and Dorian yates. Its Simple
Pick muscle or muscle group
Induce hypertrophy
Recover to point of overcompensation(able to handle more work)
Repeat

That being said not many humans on the planet can handle training a bodypart more than once per week and not immediately fall into overtraining mode. What you get from this is lack of results, fatigue, low immune system and more than double the risk of gym related injury.
    Combine this with the rigors of the most demanding activities there are is a recipe for disaster. Logic would dictate that the strength training program take as little toll on the body as possible, as the demands of sport put enough of a toll already.
   Any strength program that trains a bodypart twice a week is unnecessary and dangerous.
Its amazing that sports organizations, with millions of dollars on the line, are not aware of the damage that the offseason workouts can do. Have a son or daughter in high school sports? They are not getting paid but most likely their strength training is doing damage that they will feel for life.
     The poorly designed studies that compare the two training styles (training movements more than once a week) admit the results are similar. Seems asinine to add unnecessary workout to add to the wear and tear of sports and life. I resolve to start a mission to educate team owners or managers on the futility of the multi-week strength training, the bench press and any other training technique that high school coaches and young athletes imitate.
