Red pill me on rest days
You need them
Why?
Your body needs time to use the protein you eat to build muscle. You can work more often but its not actually going to do anything more for you.
I hear about top athletes training 6 days a week and whatnot. What is that all about?
They're trying to get better at technique
What do you mean?
steroids. they literally make your body recover faster.
“Rest days” is code for “days to do cardio.”
He probably means muscle memory n' stuff
Thats a funny way to spell cardio day.
Sport-specific skills are the most important thing for a competitive athlete to work on.
im i hurting myself if i do
day1: dl,squat, biceps and back
day 2: tricep and chest
day 3: squat,dl, leg press
day 4: shoulders
repeat
with no rest days?
I use to train 5 days a week and almost never rest, I stopped getting gains and then got demotivated and started going to the gym less often, and when I started going less often I had more gains than ever before because of all the rest
I used ti train 5 days a week as well, now I'm down to 3 a week and I feel the gains have stopped. But my body is always tired for some reason. There's a dull pain everywhere.

What an odd split.
Take them when you need them
or don't, I probably should have today and I hit a new PR on squat
Even on "rest days" I'll go for a run/calisthenics/band stretches for bloodflow and recovery
if you have pain it might be another issue, chronic fatigue? is your diet alright? tried intermediate fasting to clean out your system?
