Dont get me wrong, now and then its great. I try to go intense 2-3 times a week (usually 2). Other than those 2 intense workouts that make me sore and tired... my other 3-4 workouts are less intense. More leisure but with proper direction. 

You cannot just lift lift lift or run run run and continue to see progress. You need to recover. And some recovery comes in the art of training lightly (20 easy reps of things) and getting in steps. 

Unless you are using anabolic steroids and your body recovers like wolverine, you NEED to let your body recover properly.  If you continue to leave the gym or your home workouts feeling like you cannot walk the next day...something is wrong. Decrease the weight, the reps or intensity a notch. Nothing wrong with turning it down. You should NOTTTTT feel like you got hit by a train after all workouts. 

Again, once in a while it happens. But if you THINK your workout is ONLY good when you feel like you ran a marathon through a fire uphill both ways carrying a boulder on your back.... thats false. Some workouts are made for recovery. Mae for touching up a muscle. Not destroying them. 

PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD: Slowly increasing intensity, weight or volume over time. Time!!! Not every single workout.
