Reply With Quoteit can take days or even a week for the muscles to completely heal depending on the intensity of your workout. without healing there is no growth and you just dig yourself into a hole.

What's The Big Deal About Training The Same Body Part Several Days In A Row?
Everything I read says give a muscle time to recover, heal, you know? If it's good to tear fibers down and let them rebuild why not tear them farther and then let them heal? I mean when you're a hard working blue collar guy, you don't work Monday and take Tuesday off, work Wednesday and blow off Thursday. Why not the same thing for building in the weight room? Men have been working it this way for a lot longer than these 'experts' right?

I've worked in warehousing and done Class B truck driving/load hauling and you are not 100% intensity like you are in a gym.
If you can work 100% intensity in a gym 8 hours straight 5 days a week, then you are not 100% intensity. I have unloaded 48 footer trailers MYSELF in a single shift with zero breaks and zero food during that time, I hauled ass but it was obviously not 100% intensity or I would not have lasted. I had to unload, adjust the rollers as I progressed to the back of the trailer, scan, and then load onto "u-boats" (no not the German vessels). I did the work of 3-4 people in twice the time, unfortunately only giving the throughput of 2 people.
So blue collar or not, its not the gym, and you aren't building much muscle in most blue collar jobs either.Motivation Bench form Charles Poliquin When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be. Lao-Tzu

OK fair enough. I'll buy the building part but the intensity? You break between reps.
