FT Questions....

[duchaine]

My best answer to your question (last line) is "maybe, depending on how sore it is." If I never trained a sore muscle, I'd training VERY infrequently and under training, most likely.

As far as you scenario, this is why I suggest folks separate day 1 and 2 of FT with a rest day.

You'll have to size up your own level of recovery, which includes muscle soreness and auto regulate, both in terms of training volume (Tier in FT), exercise selection, whether it's time to cruise, etc., etc, etc....

Thanks Scott.
From my personal experience, I agree with you to take a day off between day 1 and 2 of FT.
Because I do not have a great social life at the moment, sometimes I go to the gym on Sunday while Monday is rest.
training sunset instead of Monday, I can handle more volume and I have better workouts!

Strangely, even if MR are more taxing than "regular" sets, I can handle 2 consecutive days for MR.
