Over load principle - (to get stronger or build more endurance you must over load the muscles) You must over load the muscle in order for it to get stronger When you over load the muscle it breaks down that is why you are sore the next day and tend to be a little weaker after a day of vigorous exercise. The body then compensates and rebuilds the muscles stronger than before.
