    is three days a week enough?

    I am doing the WWB 1 work out, and I am not sure if its enough. I mean, I don't seem to be sore leaving the gym, despite failure at or before 7 reps......i am being fairly aggressive with my weight selection (in terms of pounds) and I am fairly knowledgable about proper technique.....could i be trying to lift too much weight and having the spotter to to much work?? Is only hitting each muscle group once per week enough?

    Once a week per body part is what I do. (of course, I'm an old guy) Don't know how often the youngun's do it. And don't worry about getting sore. Soreness and building muscle are not co-dependant.
    A bodybuilder asked God, "What is the number one bodybuilding exercise?"
    God answered: "Deadlifts"

    The bodybuilder then asked God, "What is the second best bodybuilding exercise?"
    And God answered: "More Deadlifts"
