I usually workout my upper body every 2 days and rest on weekends. I did a workout on Monday, and today is Wednesday, but parts of my upper body (forearems, biceps, and pecs still have that tight feeling. Does that mean I lifted too hard on Monday? Is it bad?

But usualy the feeeling would be gone by Wednesday, but it's still here. Would it be bad if I lifted today again? Or do I need to rest for tomorrow.

If you're sore, take a day off. If will probably benefit you too, because your muscles are rebuilding from the last workout.Originally Posted by UNDlSCLOSED

just go with your gut. If you feel you can have a productive workout, then lift. I ususlly lift one body part per day so i can go to the gyn nearly every day and train something, so by the time I loop back around to a certain muscle group again it has usually recovered. But if it is still sore, or you're low on energy, take a rest day and fully recover.
