After a work out

Recommended Posts

Not necessarily. It really depends on the person and on the work-out. Some bodyparts hurt the day after the lift while others hurt after 2 days from lifting. I would dare say that if you don't experience any soreness at all, you may have not lifted very well on that particular day.

Just make sure you concentrate on proper form and you should be fine. Are you stretching prior to lifting? I usually only get sore if I skip or half-a$$ pre-lift stretching.

you should have atleast some soreness or muscle fatigue. What kind of exercises are you doing? how many reps and sets? It could be from not lifting enough weight, using bad form, or just your numbers of sets and reps are off. If you can outline your workout program we can help you a bit more.

I do a 12 10 8 ladder with a 100 pound curl bar. I do chest flys with a 80 pound barbell 2 sets of 10. I do tricep dips in 3 sets of 10. I do resisted crunches and reverse abdomin curls for as many as I can do before I feel like im going to throw up lol. For legs I do a leg press with 495 pounds in 2 sets of 12 or I will do 10 reps of 365 pounds for a squat. Also im not feeling sore but when I pick something light up it feels like it weights way more than it does.

I read years ago that soreness comes from your muscles stretching beyond their current limits; for that reason, trainers suggest that newbies train the same movements for a couple of days -- even though that seems counter-intuitive.

Once you're in good shape, you shouldn't feel sore too often. If I'm working out regularly, I rarely feel sore after working out. And I'll generally go to failure on each set.

Ive been working out for about 10 months now somewhere around there. Does anyone know a better tricep exercise than a dip also whats a good deltoid exercise.

for triceps you can do skull crushers, or extensions on the cable. and for shoulders, theres three way laterals, military press, arnold press, reverse pec dec, etc.

Usually I go hard in the weight room during summer/when i'm home from school, so I'm in my best shape of the year. I practically never get sore after workouts and I go to fatigue on many of my exercises.

Skull-crushers are always good for triceps. I have read that anything with your elbows pointing upward are good for your triceps i.e. above the head dumbell controlled drop downs (sorry I don't know what the proper term of this is called).

There are 3 deltoid muscles - front, middle, and back. I only hit my middle and back as you use your front deltoid muscles when you lift for chest and back. I use a dumbell flyes like movement.

Best to check body building websites for illustrations and far better descriptions than my own.
