If all goes well (that is, if it wasn't too much stress and you
allowed enough recovery time), the repaired muscle will be stronger than before.
After enough recovery time has passed, the athlete can participate at a 50 - 75 % level in order to keep them involved while limiting the trauma to the heel.
In fact, training too often can be counterproductive for the average bodybuilder because it naturally reduces the intensity of the workout and doesn't allow
for enough recovery time between workouts — and that's where real growth happens.
Let's be practical, if Wenger, other managers and the clubs were that bothered about players
getting enough recovery time, they could cut out these meaningless out of season «trophies» such as the Emirates Cup.
If you notice that it's elevated more than 7 beats per minute above baseline, you're probably not giving your
body enough recovery time and need to take a few days off or lighten up on your training.
However, the run in allows
them enough recovery time to keep a settled side, so we expect Conte to keep the same XI which saw off Bournemouth last weekend.
Running on uneven surfaces, biomechanical flaws, imbalance of strength in the muscles, and not
enough recovery time are some of the most common causes for knee related injuries.
Plus, working for every muscle group every other day doesn't give
you enough recovery time.
The basic idea is that if you don't give
yourself enough recovery time, you will eventually physically and / or mentally burn out.
It also ensures you will have
enough recovery time; that's where the magic of muscle growth happens.
