I’ve wondered this for so long but don’t know how to articulate it well and also feel like it’s potentially a very dumb question but thought this would be a good place to ask it.
Essentially- while I’m working out, are the muscles building themselves during that time or is it a situation where you’d be able to see the effects afterwards like in the coming days? I hope that makes sense.

The answer is both.
After a workout your muscles will temporarily appear enlarged. This is due to an increase in blood flow to the area.
The muscle physically grows in the days after a workout when your body is recovering. It grows a very very small amount, but it does grow. Compound this effect for 6 to 12 months and you have significant muscle growth
