45 minutes normally maybe 1 hour for assistance work on a Friday (Madcow)
My main aims are just to:
Train as intensely as possible while lifting good heavy weight.
Making sure I get enough rest time 2-3 minutes MAX on main exercises and 30s-90s on dips/curl/ab work
And I make sure it takes no more than one hour to make sure I don’t release cortisol - Aim for your testosterone levels peeking point - 45 minutes 
I usually train 5-6x’s a week for about an hour and a half.
50-60 minutes 5 times a week.
45 minutes every other day
Usually around 45 minutes every other day.
I get about 35-45 minutes, depending on how fast I can change and get there. That leaves time one body part five times a week and absolutely no bullshitting. It really sucks on leg and back days.
I think the more interesting thing to take home from this thread… Is all the guys who have posted in this thread with decent development/the big dudes, are hitting the gym 5x per week.
3 days a week is dead to me.
Normally 60-90 mins 5-6 days a week.
Excluding mobility/flexibility stuff, 30minutes 3 times a week (lunch breaks). Have a newborn at the moment, when she sleeps through will try and workout before work and get longer sessions in as 90 minutes a week sucks for a guy who likes a decent amount of volume.

Preach it brother. I gotta 5 month old. Combine that with an hour commute each way and all my time just disappears.
Actual workout time is 60 mins 5x week.
90 min 5x/wk
I range from an hour and a half to two hours and a half depending of how much PR I do with all the people I know at the gym (I’m counting the 30 mins of running I do per workout sessions in that amount of time).
Edit: That’s 6x/week - counting 4x lifting (includes cardio) and 2x cardio days just to keep me rolling.
about an hour 5 times a week, depending on what muscle group I’m working
45 mins to an hour depending on which bodyparts that day and if its a cardio day or not.
As long as it takes…which can be anywhere from 40 min to an hour and a half.
I know many big guys though who are normally in the gym for two hours or more…but they also don’t usually train as often through out the week.
I will say this…VOLUME and FREQUENCY (as far as training a muscle group) is what causes growth.
That is why you shouldn’t expect much overall progress only getting in the gym 3 days a week.
After watching those Dorian Videos I do my workouts in 45minutes-1 hour. I kinda time my rests just because i space out and if i didnt i would be there to long lol
1-3 hours. 5-6x a week.

that is a huge possible time frame man… anywhere between 5-18 hours a week in the gym?
I have a 5-way split that I cycle through in either six or seven days, as follows:
Shoulders+Biceps-This usually doesn’t take much more than an hour.
Quads and Calves-Usually a good two hours. Squats, front squats, leg presses, pre fatigue etc. Shit takes time.
Chest and Triceps-About an hour and a half or so
Upper Back-I do about 20 sets for upper back and it usually takes me about 2 hours or so.
Deadlifts: Takes about three hours.
So usually it’s around 10 hours a week.
