If it's a 4-day split then yes, Monday Wednesday Friday Sunday in, Tuesday Thursday Saturday off makes most sense.

I'll always tell you to do more compound than free weights, ideally no free weights but as long as you're lifting I guess.

I'm assuming you fall somewhere between untrained and notice on this chart. If you do, your recovery period SHOULD be a day as long as you're resting a lot, eating a lot, don't have a physical job, and in general are willing to put some stress on your body. I do Mon Wed Fri and that's what I suggest to anyone who falls between novice and intermediate on that chart (which I have to imagine is MOST people).

Keep stacking volume, frequency & intensity as long as you're progressing & don't exhibit over-training symptoms.

Just keep your workouts under 45min unless you're on gear. How many days you walk into a gym doesn't matter.
