how much is too much

Post up your routine. It's hard to give advice when you don't give any real info.

No way on earth could i train legs more than once a week. They take nearly a week to recover. When you've finished legs you should feel proper sick, if not actually throwing up. They are such a big muscle group you have to hammer the fuck out of them in the gym. If you can walk out of the gym without assistance, you ain't trained them hard enough.

Do some big compound movements, heavy as you can, then after the heaviest set, drop the weight a bit, and again go to failure. Keep doing this until the legs cant hold your weight. Then they've been done properly.

once every 7 days gives opportunity for recovery, and as this is where they grow, the more recovery the better.

I would train legs twice per week as long as your body can handle it. Overtraining can occur even when on cycle. Listen to your body and if twice per week is too much, i.e. you are not recovering fast enough, then cut it back to one.

It is vitally important to remember that resting is just as important as working out. Having one intense leg workout per week followed with adequate rest is better than hitting legs twice per week and getting less rest.

I agree with socket, i train legs (when bodybuilding) hard 1 time a week and it takes a damn long time to recover and i can barely walk out to my car without cramping up and i get spasms the next day or two and cramps.

Being sore and puking doesn't mean you trained effectively for growth. It means you beat the shit out of yourself. I get sore if I run 13 miles, but are my legs gonna get huge?

You need to determine which is more effective for growth, blasting the piss out of your legs 1 day a week or less volume and more frequency.

Im going with St8. While you're On, try to hit legs twice a week. Dont go crazy both days and kill yourself but give it a 3 day split and definitely hit it hard. If you decide to only go with one day a week, make sure you go harder that one day than you would have for the two. Especially with Prop. I know on leg days I would throw some in my quad about an hour before I lifted legs.
