No one really answered your question, so I will. It’s because a majority (like a huge majority) of your muscle repair is from sleeping, you can technically think of it as why does it take a sleep or two to start feeling DOMS?

The first sleep you’ll feel it a bit, it’s starting a big portion of the repair but hasn’t finished yet, then the second time you sleep, you’re onto nearly finishing, maybe even 80% which causes a lot more soreness. But this only really happens during your first time back at the gym.
