I read book written by Carlon M Colker called Extreme Muscle Enhancement on general muscle recovery times and I though I would share it :p

Time to heal
Calves, Abs, and Forearms every 1-2 days
Biceps, Triceps, Shoulders every 2-3 days
Chest and Hamstrings every 3-4 days
Back and Traps every 4-5 days
Quads and Lower Back every 5-6 days

Bare in mind it all depends on the person and how hard you hit the muscle

Good to know. Does he suggest waiting that long before working those muscle groups again?

If you train for strength you also have to take into account CNS fatigue and not just muscle fatigue.

Hmm right Deficiency of frequent water can lead to contamination, a condition that happens when you don't have enough frequent water in your body system to carry on frequent features....

Thanks!! My calves are my weak point as for symmetry, guess i'll start hitting them more often. I went from once to twice a week, think I might just try eod or every 3rd day for a couple of weeks, just to see what happens and how they feel
