Around rep #10, that arm should start to fatigue and be at failure around rep #12 (though I shoot for failure around rep#8, but i train for mass). You should be spending no more than a few minutes on a set. In an hour you should have nearly worked out your entire body! As mentioned before, don't neglect the Tri's and Delt's as well. For rest...yes, the muscle fibers do regenerate when at rest. This is why sleep and non-exercition are crucial in the 24-48 hours after a heavy workout. And now factor in your age...you are really too young for everyday and heavy weight lifting workouts. At 14 your skeleton is still growing, and the muscle attached doesn't grow at the same rate (growing bones slowly stretch the muscle out)...this makes strain/tear injuries easy at your age. I say a 12 rep/single set circuit with moderate weight 2 to 3 times a week is plenty. Don't forget the cardio, you can do that more frequently.<br><b>References : </b><br> If you can do curls for an hour…you aren’t lifting enough weight.

When you exercise, you are pushing your muscle to your limits and causing (minor) damage. Your body says "oh no, we need more muscle capacity to do what we are being asked to do!" and builds more muscle when it does the repairs. Many people will gain more muscle if they exercise a given muscle group every OTHER day. Try exercising your legs or abs or doing cardio every other day. A lot of people end up with big arms and wussy legs. Also, be careful, too much weight lifting at your age can damage your growth plates and stunt your growth.<br><b>References : </b><br> Technically your body builds muscle during period of rest immediately after you work out.

Muscle milk is good for that though. I highly doubt resting makes you gain more muscle.<br><b>References : </b><br>My boyfriend is obsessed with weights & having muscles in his body.

Train the triceps with 120% the weight you train the bicep and keep the shoulder up to speed with military presses, lat training, and bench. with this training,, rest the muscle 2 days following a workout.<br><b>References : </b><br> forget the rest, you’re probably not doing enough right now to worry about that.

If so, how long of a rest? Do you gain more muscle with rest?
