Training Muscle Groups 2X Week = Double Gains?

Hi all,

I usually train each muscle group twice a week (3 days on, 1 day off, repeat) and gains are coming nicely.

I am wondering since the average lifter usually works each muscle out once a week (i.e. - Mon=Chest, Tues=Legs, ect), the average weekly weight gain is said to be .5 lbs.

By training each muscle twice a week and keeping volume the same as if you were training each muscle once a week, are gains being essentially doubled (especially since muscles are recovered within 3-4 days and protein synthesis ends within 72 hours)?

Let me know your thoughts - thanks!
