Oh, forgot to add that I've read it can take up to 5 days for muscles to fully repair if you max out, so just working each group once a week helps get the most bang for your buck so to speak because you get the full benefit from each workout.
Lately, I've been doing three 30-minute full body workouts each week where I only do reps half my max. My only goal of lifting workouts is to make sure I don't lose muscle from running, but not wear me out too much for my running workouts.
