The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.
Shoulders and arms day off, legs day or two off, 'cause if you hit legs right, at least for me, I'm not training the next day.
Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

if I'm going to train legs typically the next day will be a complete day off no matter what but that's not always the case I think as long as you're not moving your workouts around constantly it's perfectly fine to train your legs really hard on a Tuesday because you have to because you couldn't train them on Monday and then on Wednesday rather than go out for a jog I might train torso and I might back off on the intensity a little bit and then I'll take a day off
it's perfectly fine to slide a resistance training session such as legs forward a day or back a day okay so I guess back a day would be from Monday to Sunday or forward from Monday to Tuesday but then you're going to want to make some adjustments accordingly so that you don't get sick or you don't overtrain and that sort of thing
