Rest is Not as Important to Muscle Growth as was previously thought.

Your Muscles Don't Always Need a Day of Rest Between Workouts

RIP, leg day.

www.vice.com

A new study shows that rest is not as important to muscle growth as was ...

has it that you can't work for the same muscle groups two or more days in a row. ...

and grow, which they can't do if you're training them every day.

... same training program—same exercises, sets, and reps— but with one key difference.​

Are you sure you posted that entire quote? Parts of it seem to be cut off.

If you're saying you can't work the same muscle group two days in a row, we know, we didn't previously think you could.

I cut it off.

If you're on a gram of test you can train the same body part twice a day jfl. But if you're natty or on low dose peds rest is crucial.

You can theoretically even train them every day (this doesn't mean it's the most reasonable thing to do). This "muscles need 48-72 h rest between workouts" bs is on the same level as "the body can't digest more than 30g protein at once". Dumb people try to generalize everything and put numbers on things that are highly individual. Welcome to the age of pseudointellect.

If you're natty you can't lol. Even on low dose steroids. You obviously never lifted a dumbell your whole so you're saying this

Becsuse you know me, right?

No what you said was enough proof that you know jack shit about lifting. If you actually lifted for more than a year straight you wouldn't be saying this shit.

I lifted weights for five years (both with and without PEDs). I was obsessed with it in the past. Let's just leave it at that.

Why did u stop then ?

Depression due to my looks (face) and social anxiety. Couldn't get myself to go to the public gym anymore even though I loved it. I will most probably start again once I fixed my face and other circumstances.

Bro your face is fine. 5 psl. You're probably a mentalcel.
