I try to hit everything twice a week but usually I don't feel fully recovered on the second pass, especially for larger muscle groups.

thats something I've been playing with. I've been just smashing one muscle group a day. It seems to help with recovery for me. I'm a competitive soccer coach so my weekends are shot. I need to get all my workouts in during the week. Then I spend all weekend on my feet trying to recovery... Doesn't always work out for me ha!

As mentioned earlier, getting sufficient sleep is very important. Also, a good diet. Offhand, looking at your reply about training, you might be overtraining? Perhaps back off on the number of times you train muscle groups each week and see if that has any effect?

X 2 on probably overtraining. Do a test. Crush the body parts one time per week and see if recovery is better
