Unfortunately, this part is often neglected. Even in the studio, there's still a saying that "a lot helps a lot," which is just plain wrong.
Since the muscle not only recovers in the rest phase in order to be fully productive again the next time, it also processes the set stimulus in order to grow.
It is therefore extremely important for growth to plan sufficient breaks between the training days.
Basically, the more intense the training, the longer the rest period should be.

Someone who is just starting out with weight training should rather put in longer regeneration phases than an experienced athlete who knows his body.
A warm-up and cool-down program should be part of every training session, as this will prevent injuries and start regeneration with the cool-down.
And a rest phase is not only of great importance for sport. We need frequent breaks to be able to perform at our best.
