DOMS general

>>39204270
Don't be disheartened if your DOMS isn't as bad after a few days of training, your body adjusts to it if you frequently go

So if i suffer through leg day a couple times. I'll get used to it and actually be able to walk the next day?

For me it was seriously gone after the first week. Enjoy it while it lasts.

yep. i never have doms now unless i stop working for like a week or more and even then it's pretty mild one.

if you never lifted before you will have pretty bad doms after your first workout but it should be fine after a day of rest. if you still have it on the 3rd day just stretch and do some warm up and it should go away.

Increase the weights maybe? Train until muslces are completely fatigued?

>>39205259
That sounds great.

But I love DOMS. If i have to take a week off for some reason (which i occasionally do) i get doms on the first of each day back (ie chest, back, shoulders, legs) but then the second time i train them their back to normal and i get no doms.

>>39204270
I have lower back doms and I had to fart this morning, hurt like hell

true story

Yes, leg day memes are for people who dont train train legs enough.

That being said you still may get some soreness of you are pushing yourself and training hard but nothing like when you started out.

>>39205259
i only get mild doms when i add a new exercise nowadays.

feels bad man. i miss the doms.

>>39205066
err, it just looks like tomato sauce

>>39205277
If you train with high freq you wont get doms no matter the weight

Yes. After my first leg day I actually collapsed walking down the stairs.

Now I don't even get that sore and I'm still adding weight each time.
