I don’t skip leg day, I just give them years to recover for maximum growth

Met him in Miami the year before he won Mr. O. Rest was his #1 recommendation regarding building muscle. To paraphrase him “you’ll be surprised at how many people never reach their potential because they won’t do something as simple as rest”. Classy dude…

Recovery is very important i give my legs at least 2 months of recovery after i train them

"recovery is when the muscle is growing." That's all I needed to hear

Rest and recovery with proper nutrition are things I always put alot of stock in. I'm 56 and have trained for 40 yrs. One learns and im still learning to this day. Really enjoyed this short video Jay. 💪🏻🙏🏻✨

If you don't annihilate your muscles, you can train 3 times per week. Pick two exercises for body part, do 5 sets for each, and that's it.

There are tons of body builders, but Jay has been the most helpful and beneficial in terms of advice, positive attitude, lack of ego…..it’s honestly a great combination for a guy that has achieved so much in the body building community !

I had been doing full body for 6 days a week to cut weight, then started doing individual muscle groups once I dropped my weight. The hardest part was forcing myself to take days off but once I did I started seeing the gains I was looking for.

Training for 58 yrs now. At 72 what works for me is once a week per body part. Still hold a Tx USPA record. Lost national record unfortunately. Jay you are so helpful I've followed for many years!

Rest is a major key to this man’s longevity.

[eamonsing]

rest is essential for the muscle, i mostly give my legs about 19 years rest since april of 2023.

I now know why I got strong when I didn't go to the gym for a week. I was so confused

[elmarkymark]

Definitely right answer, it's never black and white when coming to exercise. Always working in the gray area and experimenting

[nursegilbey]

He rested 5+ days because his workouts were otherworldly.

When I was weights training in my early 20s I only went to the gym three times per week and was in their each time for about 35-45 minutes. I received many compliments at how much faster I was growing than most others. I placed a huge emphasis on recovery vs how long I can spend in the gym each week. I think this guy is saying something similar.
