I've read bunch of different schools of thought, let's see how many days you guys train while "on".
 
same as off. 4-5 days a week.
I think training less when off is just a sign of being lazy. of course you probably wont lift as much as when you were on, which may hurt your ego a little, but de-training will just backtrack your progress.

Yeah I might keep it at 4, sometimes I do 5 and train chest twice
 
Usually 5 on 2 off.

Though I will randomly take days off if I am not feeling it so one week could be like 3 off days then the next would be 6 on days.
 
Off: 1-2 or 3 days. 4 If I really feel like a superstar that week.
On: 4 min. -5 max.
 
I think that you need less work when you're off that's why I don't push as much + you get less recovery while off compared to being on and recovering pretty fast. I recently changed my training regiment to 30secs pause with medium weight and really feeling the muscle working. That way I complete most of my two parts training in under 30 mins while producing better gains. Remember intensity is the key
 
best bet is 5-2 and your off days you can do calves and abs.
 
I think you gotta have plenty
Of recovery time even when on
Some people told me recovery time is like non existent when on?
 
I do eod and cardio on my off day, but I do long routines.
 
When I was a teenager it was usually 5-6 days a week, off cycle of course. I usually still hit 4-5 now as well. No scheduled rest days, I just take it when I feel like I need it.

Trained 7x a week on my first cycle.... by week 5-6 I was like a zombie. Didn't feel sore so I kept pushing but it eventually caught up with me. Woke up tired as hell everyday, dragged ass all day long, started getting some knee/elbow pain etc. Definitely not doing that again lol. IMO if you listen to your body it'll let you know when your eally need the rest
 
lift 4 days, cardio 5 days.

lift:
1-chest, tri's
2-back, bi's
3-legs
4-shoulders

cardio:
4-5 days 30-45 min

when training for a climb:
cardio 1.5 hours 4-5 days a week.
lifting: high rep low weight.
 
6 days a week for me. I also have cardio or plyometrics/sprints every day in addition to my gym workout.
 
I enjoy lifting 5 days a week but I grow better when sticking to 4 days a week. I also hit the gym on my "off" days for cardio. Occasionally I'll take off Sunday for complete rest.
 
4 or 5 on cycle or off. I add sets and obviously weight when on cycle other than that I essentially train the same.
 
1 bodypart a week then day off. calves ed and stomach ed cardio ed.
 
yeah i like 6 days = 1 part and always no matter what take sunday off. some times like others have said you gotta add a rest day when your body tells ya.
 
I do 2 on 1 off and then 2 on and 2 off for the week.

Day 1 - horizontal back pulls, chest, calves and abs
Day 2 - Quads and Bi's
Day 3 - Off Day, but I usually will do cardio
Day 4 - vertical back pulls, shoulders, calves and abs
Day 5 - Hamms and Tri's
Day 6 - Off Day, but I usually do some Cardio
Day 7 - Off
 
5-6 days on 1 off.

When I'm off I workout compound movements MWF and do cardio T/TH
 
I go 4 days in a row, then an off day, then on day, then another off day - and repeat.

That 4th day is brutal, I feel very taxed by that day. CNS recovery is tough when you're throwing around weights all the time
