A ? about workout time

mattawesome Posts: 141 Joined: 2005/01/13	2005/05/17, 12:11 AM :surprised: I'm just wondering, how long should I be working out? I have learned in the past that bodybuilder's can workout up to 8 hours a day 4 days a week or more. Of course I don't have that kind of time. But as far as building mass how long should I be going? The program I'm set up on here at FT, takes about 45 minutes. Should that be all? -------------- If you can't hang with the big dogs, go your little ass home.
