Muscle Building Rest

Muscle building and rest?

ok so i'm going to the gym sort of 3 days in a row lifting weights (arms and shoulders) and my arms are really sore so i was just wondering what is the importance of resting my muscles or is it best just to tough it out and keep at it?
will i get more muscle if i keep at it?

firdt of all dont worry. ive been weight lifting for years and i still get ' two day delay'. when you train you break down muscles so they repair stronger and bigger. thats why they are sore, so your doing well! its best to cycle your bodyparts and train them in groups so while some are recovering your training others giving them time to repair else you'll end up overtraining them and see no improvements at all. my routine is -
mon- chest and triceps
tues- back and biceps
wed- off (rest day)
thurs- shoulders and traps
fri- legs
sat- off (rest day)
sun- off (rest day......again) no one wants to train on a sunday anyway

i do cardio on each training day and a short abs session aswell

The main thing tho is your diet. you dont eat properly you wont grow properly!!!

take supplements but glutamine is good for taking edge off soreness as it helps recovery.
hope this helps.
