Why 'Rest' is Important for muscles.

       Why 'Rest' is Important for muscles.

# Why rest and sleep are equally important as workouts in the Gym.

# If we are serious about getting strong muscles, then we need to train hard, And we need to also make sure that we are not overtraining, because after some time it starts hurting negatively to our muscles.
 

# Our workout must be harder, but muscle growth does not happen while we are working out in the Gym.
   Our muscles do get pumped up after a better workout, but that pump disappears in few hours. The pump we get is just the blood guishing into our muscles to provide the need for muscles for doing all hard workout.
  In reality we break our Muscles while lifting those heavy weights in the Gym. It happens during the rest time and our sleep that our body to recover from all those things, we need to provide essential nutritients to our body, And it overcompensates for the stresses that we exposed it, in result we get stronger.

   The Whole process, and repeating this cycle over and over again through progressive overloading that helps in increasing muscle size.
  If we do not give our muscles enough time to recover, so we cannot expect the growth of the muscles.
  As we will just keep breaking our muscles without giving rest, so we cannot grow muscles, or we will get negative results.
  Minimum we should never allow a muscle to be targeted in a workout on two consecutive days.

  So atleast minimum 48 to 72 hours ,should be given to the muscles for recovery.
  If the workout is intense where we perform more than three exercises for the same muscle in a day ,then it is better to target a particular muscle once a week.
  During sleep, that our body is most active in strengthening our muscles. Generally we need to sleep for 8 hours, and After a proper 8 hours of sleep ,we will feel refreshed after waking up.


    Stay fit stay healthy 💪.
