Wonder how your muscles feels like on a day to day basis. Like this morning I feel a slight burn and dull soreness several places. Would you tell yourself this is fine, go and tear up more muscle today, or would you wait till healed?

I'd go tear up more muscle, I was doing two-a-days when I was in college with no ill effects.

I wish I could be bothered to join a gym these days. I get plenty of muscle fatigue working outside in the garden, with the chickens, and landscaping the yard.

Phil. I asked myself, why bother with building, and what you now do came to mind. Being able to do things like landscaping. Got the land ready and now need a body strong enough to shape it. I'll probably do as you do within five years.

We had 10³ yards of mulch delivered back in June, had it dumped on the back side of the property and I've been wheeling 150# loads uphill five times a day at least three times a week with a heat index over 110° for the last two months. Shoveling that stuff in and out was a workout all by itself, and that's 1/10th of what I do in a day!

Phil Obviously you got an excellent gym right outside your door. Reminds me of when I removed wet clay dirt from an area, with a plan to replace it with stones for better drainage. Sucked the power out of me. Btw, I feel very warm and good right now. Near exhaustion level from doing weight lifting, sit ups and the like. You were right. Small complaints about muscle feel, seem to be safe to ignore.

If you skip a day with that muscle group, they will heal. 7 to 8 hours of sleep is the Key to the overall process.

Srossca Thank you. I found I had to skip one muscle group that was too sore to use. Found many others I could rip apart. Learned something today too.

Recovery is a lot quicker than most people think. I read a comment Chris made on one of his posts about zeroing in on favorite exercises, and that's key, when I was doing two-a-day's I started every morning 5 a.m. with dumbbell curls, staggered with chest flys, transitioned to bench & leg press, moved to a seated mid row, then back again, warm up with taekwondo stretching, hit three sets on each circuit, and do it again at noon. Some days I would do shrugs and pulldowns, but pretty much maintained about a dozen exercises 2x day 7 days/week. After six weeks of that, move up in weight a bit. I've still got definition ten years later.
