Waiting 48 hours between exer- cising the same muscle is a good idea. Main strength gains come from rebuilding of the muscle fibers between workouts so you want to wait for the repairs to OCCur before breaking the tissue down again. Aerobic exercise will increase the muscles tone and endurance, but offers little mus- cle growth. For muscle size to increase, you need to pump up with weights! Oh, one more thing, stretching is vital to any exercise routine. A stretched muscle becomes lengthened over time. Stretching can improve your overall posture and bal- ance. You should stretch after a short warm up period and do it before and after you work out, every time. Current scientific research suggests a "cold" muscle enjoys only a short-term increase in muscle length. However, it has been found to be more effective to stretch a "warm" muscle. It can stay longer, longer! Loaded with all this information, you now can head out to the gym and exercise your butt off in a safe, effective precise fashion. Knowledge does equal power.
