    This is something I have been struggling with so to answer the original question from the original post : "with great difficulty!".

    Some great advice already given but I would add - don't ignore sleep and rest. Your muscles need time to repair and grow; training the same muscle group at the same intensity increases the risk of injury.

    As many have suggested the intense sessions one after the other probably means you are not getting the maximum benefit that you should.

    Also if the splitting them up day wise isn’t possible then split your sessions so you have an upper body day / lower body day / core etc. That way the previous days muscles won’t be as fatigued.
