EVERYDAY, but alternating muscle groups.
Example:
Monday- work shoulders and arms,(and get the abs in too.)
Tuesday-- work back,and legs
The reason for alternating is to give the muscles recovery time.(this builds up the muscles)

during exercise after a good warm up. but after lifting weights, give your mucles a day to recover. do not strain yourself and strech lots.
Everyday, but only until you can't lift properly should you go on. If one day you're tired from the last, you should stop and forget about it.
P.S.: Don't forget to do stretches.
At most, every other day. Anything more than that will cause a decrease in the production of growth hormone and testosterone. Always limit your workouts to 45 mins to an hour at most, for after an hour your cortisol levels will be elevate to the point where your actually doing your body more harm than good.
