Your body needs more me. And he needs to eat a ton of meat and work out 5 days a week, and stop being a sillynanny.

incoming shitstorm warning.
My roommate was reading how recuperation speed doesn't increase as you gain muscle mass, so the bigger you are you should be waiting more and more time between workout days. He's doing minimum of 3 now for the next month to see if it works for him.
Thoughts?
Steroids.
That's how they work, the muscles recover quicker.
He may be reading that wrong, the speed doesn't increase but does it say the speed decreases? If not why wait longer between workouts?
If you feel soreness from the muscles healing you shouldn't work out until it goes away or you'll be overtraining, if you feel fine to train then train.

Because larger muscles get larger tears that take larger amounts of time to heal...is the theory.
I can sort of visualise that but the gains are still incremental, in fact the gains are smaller the bigger you get.
Was he reading from a bodybuilding magazine? They seem to have new theories all the time, just like the latest in diets, it sells magazines.
Will have to wait to see if it works for him.

I respectfully disagree. Soreness is just one factor which doesn't always represent the big picture. A bigger indicator of whether or not you're overtraining is taking into account everything: how much volume are you doing, what % load are you using, are you getting enough to eat, enough to sleep, are you making gains, how are you feeling in general (do you feel especially tired all the time), etc.
Sometimes I am sore when going into a workout and often times set PR's that very day and feel great afterward, leading to further improvements. On the contrary, there are times when I don't feel sore at all and my lifting session sucks a major fuck.
I really hate those kinds of routines

^listen to eveningninja, he knows what he is talking about
I'm a little pessimistic about anyone on this board sticking to a lifting routine and committing to it lol but
Having said that, if you are just starting out, bench/squat/latrow all in the same day, 3 days a week, with at least one day of rest in between each day.
Because you are just starting out, take advantage of being able to do all 3 major compound lifts in the same day. You will stop feeling as sore the next day after about 1-2 weeks of this once your body is conditioned a little better.
Learn the proper form from someone who knows what they are doing, form is the most important thing, not amount of weight.
after a few months of that routine, your recovery time will slow a bit so you wont be able to hit both upper and lower in the same day without slowing your routine down

If you don't rest your muscles you're more likely to fuck them up than to work them.
You can combine groups and all, but not repeat two consecutive days a full workout on one group.
E.g you can do:
Monday: Chest and biceps.
Tuesday: Leg.
Wednesday: Back and triceps.
Thursday: Shoulder and forearm.
Friday: (repeat the day you feel you need more).
Saturday and Sunday: Rest.
From Monday to Friday complement with 15-30 min slow running (8-12 km/h, just to build your resistance a bit and get your body going) and abs, both lats and "six-pack".

I've been lifting for about a year (on and off, admittedly). I know about form, I know about resting, I know what to do to target areas, and ect. I was not asking "should I rest!?" because that is a dumbass question.
The article way saying, the more you are able to lift, the longer you should be resting. So a beginner would have one rest day, where a massive behemoth should be resting the muscles 2-3 days...because the bigger muscles will have bigger tears, simply due to having a larger surface area.
DO WE ALL UNDERSTAND UP TO THIS POINT YET!?
I like how you ask the question, then just continue your post as if I've answered. No he did not. It came from a book, he says you might be able to find it if you look up "occam's protocol of rest".

I couldn't do abs today because I spent all yesterday puking. They're still pretty soar.
I also do 7-10 reps of weighted sit-ups on a decline, so I tend to not do them multiple days in a row.
