Keeping in mind that steroids help your body recover faster from intense training, you can obviously workout harder and more often when on cycle as apposed to when your off. There is a point where you can go overboard though. This point varies from person to person and is also influenced by the substances you are using in your cycle as well as the dosages you are running.
If your diet is in check, the sky is pretty much the limit of how quickly and to what extent you can grow. Depending on what kind of workout scheme I am following at the time, I usually will fit in one more workout per week, per body part than when off cycle and I will go 100% on every workout. That's a general rule of thumb for me, and a very broken down way of explaining it. The way in which I set up my workouts is very complex and takes a long time to do as well as requires a lot of experience so you know your body's limits and thresholds.
There are some good workouts on the Internet you can find if you know what to look for. I used to be a personal trainer, so I use a lot of what I learned from back then and apply it to the workouts I design now. You don't necessarily need all that knowledge to design a good workout, but it helps a great deal. I've seen people that don't know their head from their ass in terms of building workouts that can follow some simple guidelines and make great gains from a cycle.
The first rule is heavy weight and low reps (2-4) will build strength and explosiveness. Medium weight and medium reps (8-12) will build mass. And low weight with high reps (14-18) will build muscular endurance. Keeping those three main rep ranges in mind, you can make a simple yet effective workout regimen with little effort spent.
