Quick lesson in
"Supercompensation Theory"
It's pretty simple. The theory itself is based on the fact that training depletes substances like glycogen and slows protein synthesis. Training is catabolic, draining the body of nutrients. So, theoretically to grow you need to
rest for the appropriate/optimal amount of time
AND replace nutrients lost. If both are done correctly (rest and nutrition), then in theory your body will increase protein synthesis and store more nutrients than it had resulting in bigger muscles. This theory falls in line with the famous:"Less is More" approach.
