It’s my first cycle and I recover extremely fast. I was on a ppl but i recover in 1 day and hitting muscle 2 times per week seem like a waste of time
I feel like I could do full body every day ( excluding legs )
I go gym 5/6 times a week so if someone could help me figure out what to to do thanks

You might feel like you can, but you can't keep that up forever. Once the weights get heavy, it will catch up to you. Don't be one of those smart guys who reinvent the wheel. There are hundreds of proven programs out there. Pick one and stick with it for six months.
 
You could not do full body everyday trust me.. If your "recovering too fast".... Your simply not training hard enough..

I can still do 1 muscle group a week and have my chest or back hurting for 5-6 days, I can use less volume per workout and hit muscle groups twice a week with no problem.. If I really slack I can hit arms 5 days a week but I know I'm not hitting them hard..

Go back to your PPL.. Lift until positive failure.. Utilise others in the gym to help you push past failure.. If you can't then use intensfiers on a one set of each excerise..

How many sets per muscle are you doing per workout?

Give us a rundown of push day for example..

My first push day is chest focused and its
-1 set of heavy benchpress
-3 sets of incline bench
-2/3 sets of weighted dips
-3 sets of chest fly
-4 sets of lateral raises
-4 sets of triceps extensions
If I have time I add some JM press and abs

The thing is I progress a lot and go to failure all the time but I feel like I could use even more volume

Keep in mind im a beginner lol

I have around 12-15 sets per muscle except chest which I try to bring up cuz I havent hit it well since the start so around 20
 
If your workout is just to show up to the gym and pump up some weights then yeah sure. But if you work your ass off and really push those weights with heart then boy, you gonna be sore and wondering when will you recover to go at it again. Challenge yourself and work on those numbers and of course watch your technique too, it's very important. Find a gym that is old school and don't be afraid to talk to intimidating dudes, they will guide you and give you some needed discipline.

Gained 8 kg lean mass in my first 6 months and got 100 bench in like 1.5 month of benching, I do train very hard. I think its more of a lack of volume cuz I just kept the same volume I had before
 
If you can go to the gym 5/6 days of the week and feel recovered in one day you have some serious problems with programming, or intensity.

Of course that push day you gave feels easy, you do 4 sets of lateral raises and three of triceps. Even if you do this twice a week

Also you could do full body 3x a week as a beginner but certainly not 5-6 days, or if it is PL, even as non beginner 3-4 days with different compounds and accessories for full body is really not unusual.

well I have then a shoulder focused push day and more triceps programmed
 
I truly believe you think your pushing yourself but if you were you wouldn't be here..

I have a client at the moment.. Today he's on hamstring curls struggling to get 12 reps with 27kg he's telling me they burn and all the rest of it.. I say OK I will half the weight then you just pump them out for as long as you can.. I put the weight upto 36kg and he hit 15 easy reps.. I tell him look what you just did and you telling me your tired.. Nearly dropped him on the spot..

Yes again please give full routine I need all sets per muscle group per week to help you out..

Do you mean a beginner to gear or training?

To me it appears you do not even get sore, is this correct? If this is the case you need to utilize progressive overload. What this means is, you need to increase weight, sets, or reps each week. If your starting with 18 sets per week per body part, do 8-15 reps per set. Once you start going over 15 reps increase the weight. Stick with your PPL, work 6 days a week with one rest day.

You need to be improving every week. If you are not, you are not pushing hard enough Don't be a slacker who only goes through the motions. We all have done this at some point in our training then realized we were only cheating ourselves.

Have you puked doing window makers yet? Or have the need to sit an extra 10 before crawling out to your car?

Get that bucket next to the squat rack then you can talk pushing it.

Most serious lifters pushed it to their limits in the beginning of the journey and slowly transitioned to a more comfortable style be it due to adjusting goals, injuries or loss of drive/change in lifestyle.

In your case, you can probably push your intensity and pace further. Look into DC training and start beating that log book now. Come back after about 2 months and update us.

So you don't have a year of training and your already trying gear? I'm curious, is the gear doing what you expected of it or does it seem "over rated"?

well its been only 2 weeks so I cant say much but I can say that I look peeled af
Chest felt like it has doubled in size in 2 weeks and added 4 kgs to my lateral raises
ig it was accurate lol

But the reason why I'm recovering so fast is prob cuz of gear cuz before I was dead both mentally and physically the day after training now it seems like I could go again
