  Assuming you have access to all the sleep you need, whatever food, and all the drugs and supplements you would personally want to take.
  
  Would it be an upper/lower split? Full-body? Are you already doing it?
  
  Sets per exercise, exercises per muscle group, rep ranges….Cardio, sports training, anything at all.

  A program where I can squat 3x a week. Which physiologically I don’t think I’ve done since Starting Strength.

  If you do low enough volume each workout, that should be fine, no?
  
  I used to squat MWF, but just 3 sets of 10-20 reps…still put on some muscle and strength.

  I find at the higher % ranges – I can do a lot of work in session and walk away fine – but then need a week to recover. I’m going to really limit the volume now gyms are open again to see if my frequency can be improved.

  CNS overload is a thing.
  
  When you’re not approaching failure or only doing a few sets, it’s a whole other ball game.
  
  When I wanted to learn how to pistol squat, I did a couple sets of deck squats five days in a row, then on the fifth day I also threw in a couple negative pistols. Rested over the weekend, then repeated. Took a couple weeks to nail a full-range pistol — after months of being unable to do it. There’s definitely an art to high-frequency training, just like there is for high-intensity.

  Probably 3 full body workouts + an extra workout with sled dragging, carries and/or weak bodyparts. Which is pretty much what I’m doing at the moment.

  It’s good to feel that you’re on the right road, right on Baffled.
