Can you train the same muscles 5 times a week?

The good news is you can if not going heavy. Heavy taxes the central nervous system more and fast twitch fibres take 48 to 72 hours to recover. Slow twitch fibres which are mostly used to do volume with lighter weights recover in 24 hours.

Ideal weight range is 40 to 60% of 1rm and 4 reps short of failure. Training too close to failure also taxes the CNS.

Today is day 4. I might even try 7 days in a row and lower weights to 40 to 50% of 1rm.

I suspect the muscle that you frequently exercise by hand is between your legs.

You can pump yourself 24/7, go heavy or light, use your left hand, your right hand, one hand, or both. Up to you, nobody here will give a flying toss either way.

Exercise like a sprinter do, still 5 times a week? Why ? 3 times a week full body , and cardio two ?
