All,
How have you found training frequency to affect your workout results? What would be the difference if you bench pressed only once per 10 days compared to 2-3 times per week?

Good question. The only slightly relevant info I have is that apparently doubling a workout makes no difference. The study is obviously flawed by virtue of a sample size of 2, lol. But it's interesting to think about.
For myself, I do whatever programming my crossfit gym has, 5 days a week. We usually cycle various lifts every month or so, and I definitely have been noticing good improvement at this pace.

I think it really depends on what my volume is. I bench 3x a week, and I'm totally fine, but I don't go so hard that I can't recover in a day. There's definitely a point where doing more is counterproductive when you can't recover by the time you need to train again.

I think we have pretty established frameworks.
Sheiko is pretty high volume/frequency and I got great results from it. Although it was really hard and put pressure on my body, I got a huge jump in my nunbers in just one month.
