    As long as you are not training chest or arms again get after it!

    Rule of thumb would say no, how many days rest between workouts for each muscle are you taking?

    I get sore like that and I have been doing it for 22 years. You really need more than 2 days rest before training a muscle again. I do each muscle once a week and find that to be plenty.
