However, under the condition of adequate nutrition and recovery time, the chest muscle can recover 90% in 48 hours, and it takes 72 hours, that is, three days. If the intensity of exercise is low, the rest time can be shortened appropriately, but not less than 24 hours, that is, the next day. If the intensity of exercise is high, the recovery time may be prolonged.
