very true, each time you workout, you need to push yourself, that way your muscles have no choice to get bigger and stronger, when you rest, the muscles rejuvenate itself so that it can handle the weights you've been using.. you always need to give your body time to heal up again, if you keep working out everyday your muscle will have no time to rest or build up, and you'll be getting nowhere because your body is tired and you can't lift what you did before, thus making you lift less heavier weights.. and getting you back to where you begined in the first place..
