Is it worth working out on the same muscle for 2 days like chest or back? Monday then Tuesday.?

Answer 1

I've been lifting weights for about 10 years. Everyting I read says no. Don't double up the same muscle on two days. I actually don't even double up any kind of workouts, I workout every other day.

And I'm telling you, if you make a plan to workout every single day, you won't be able to keep it up. Trust me.

Answer 2

Your muscles continue to work for approximately 24 hours after you've worked out so it's best to wait at least 48 hours before working the same muscle group again.

Answer 3

You need to give the muscles a day to recover so work them every other day.
