I Lifted weights yesterday (Chest muscles/Shoulders) and Today(Biceps/Forarms). I lifted about 2 hours ago and am thinking about going to play basketball with some friends for about an hour and 30 minutes or so.
Would This hurt my muscle growth?
I am still sore, and planning to work out Tomorrow,
so will it be okay to play basketball?
Thanks

To be honest, if you are trying to develop large muscles, you had best limit your cardio (basketball would count as cardio). That is not to say that you can’t play at all. It’s just that you don’t want to burn your calories doing cardio. You want to use your calories to build muscle. You need to eat a lot, lots of protein. Good healthful natural foods. Get lots of sleep and drink lots of milk.
You’re fine to play ball. It’ll probably help you kick some of that soreness also (the movement will purge lactic acid from your system).
If you’re doing weight training, you should be leaving 24 hours between doing the same part of you body again. Your muscles really need that time to recover, even if you don’t feel it. In the meantime, doing cardio, like basketball is a great way to keep yourself in shape and keep your muscles active.
probanly not ok to play ball or work out tomorrow, unless is legs only. just sit back and strech out, and have a protien shake or two. but to answer the question, no i wont hurt bu it wont help either
