hi everyone...

i generally have:
1-2 days between bicep workouts
1-2 days between tricep workouts
3-4 days between chest workouts
3-5 days between back workouts
3-5 days between leg workouts
3-4 days between shoulder workouts

i was wondering if this was too much or too little rest time...i realize that there will be variation among people, so if it helps: i am 19 years old, 5'11, 192 pounds, been lifting for about a year an a half, 12-14% body fat...

thanks!
 
No one can really tell you if you aren't giving yourself enough recovery time it's up to you. If when you workout the same muscle group and you can't seem to lift as much as you did the last time. Then you probably didn't recover as much as you need. It's very subjective, sometimes when i'm sick i need more recovery time. You just have to use your judgment and know if you're still not feeling full strenght on a muscle group. I'm sorry if i wasn't to the point.
 
You can just have a day rest for all muscle groups, it depends on how u feel on the day of ur next workout.

For chest for me its

Mon heavy, wed Light Fri heavy so in total of the week my chest gets 4 days rest, and a 5th day (weds of just a cut type workout )
