First of all, we cannot deny that rest is very, very important. After all, the increase in intensity and the growth of our muscles will not happen when you exercise, but when we rest, sleep and recover. But if you just go to the gym and do nothing else, you can symbolically walk on the treadmill and listen to children's songs for a while.
Then rest is not so important. After all, you are not too tired. And if every time you go to exercise, it is some heavy training, and you break through yourself every time, then rest is very important. When you make an exercise plan, you should first decide how often to exercise or go to the gym, and then you should consider two things.
The first is the weight you need to exercise, the amount and intensity of exercise at a time. These three factors are interrelated. Once you change one of the factors, the other two factors will also change, which will eventually change the amount of exercise we need in a week.
So we must first think about what kind of exercise we should do when we are in fitness. Of course, exercise for different purposes is also different. If you do retraining, you usually need to use heavy weights. After a training session, your body will become very tired, so it will take a little longer to rest and recover.
If you want to exercise muscles, then the amount of exercise is the most important factor. Although you can increase more muscles by exercising more, exercising more does not mean that the effect is good. When we increase the amount of exercise, the sense of fatigue will also increase. If you can't have a good rest at this time, your body will collapse and your function will be damaged.
Moreover, after the muscles increase to a certain extent, more muscles will not do any good to our health, but will cause physical pain, thus affecting our subsequent exercise plan.
Therefore, you should rest for 48 hours after every strong exercise training. Studies have shown that the synthesis of muscle protein will be formed during this resting period. Of course, this doesn't mean that we can't do anything when we have a rest, but we can do some light exercise.
We can also use one of the popular methods of maximum recovery and training, local physical exercise. For example, the shoulder muscles are trained on the first day, and the abdominal muscles are trained on the second day, so that when one group of muscle tissues is resting, another group of muscles can be trained.
Generally speaking, local exercises are divided into two parts. The first part is the pushing action, such as the action of lifting machine and pulley machine, and the second part is the stretching action, such as sit-ups or pull-ups that we often do in physical education class. With this training method, you can keep training for at least 4 to 5 days a week.
Of course, this does not mean that our whole-body training is ineffective, but we need to pay attention to the degree of fatigue and proper rest.
