Grip strength is an easy way to determine whether or not you may need a rest day.
Subjectively you can determine it based on feel. If your grip feels weak and you generally just feel fatigued, that may be an indication that you need to rest a bit longer.
Objectively, you can use a bathroom scale. Pick up your bathroom scale with two hands and squeeze as hard as you can. The higher the number = the greater the force output = less likely you need to rest. If you’re fatigued and in need of a rest day, the number will be lower as you aren’t able to generate as much force. Is it a perfect metric? No, but since the idea is to compare force output on days you’re feeling fresh vs days you’re fatigued, it can be a decent way to determine if you are overworking yourself.

You can OPTIMALLY train for strength OR physique, or you could SUBOPTIMALLY train both.
Each have their own respective training styles, so that’s something to keep in mind when you consider what you want out of lifting. Are you trying to get as strong as possible? Or as big as possible? Or do you not care and it’s merely just something you enjoy?
Establish what you want, and train for it 👌

Doing one without the other has it’s costs…
Working smart: you could have the most PERFECT FORM and know exactly what you are doing and why you are doing it - but if you aren’t lifting with intensity your growth will be limited.
Working Hard: You can come into the gym everyday, training to failure on every set with 20+ sets per muscle group, but if you lift like a jackass and your form is garbage not only are you minimizing your growth potential by limiting range of motion but you’re also putting your joints under unfavorable amounts of stress(thereby risking injury).
So train smart and hard. Go in with a plan, perfect the form that works for your body type, do what feels good for YOU, and do it with intensity. Increase how much weight you lift, reps you are doing, add intensity techniques like drop sets of negatives - both of these things will help you reach your goal over the long run.

Strength is not just about how much muscle you have(Although having more makes it easier). What’s also important is whether you are able to actually USE that muscle to it’s full strength potential. The goal is to train the nervous system to stimulate as many motor neurons as possible to simultaneously stimulate as many muscle fibers as possible so that you can get the most out of a single rep.
This is technique, to find and train the most efficient form possible to lift the most weight possible for your body type.
