Working out again? Relieve sore muscles now >.<

[LittleSally]

• A warm shower or bath is a natural muscle relaxer


• For bruising or inflammation, an ice pack applied to the affected area for up to 20 minutes can reduce swelling and soreness

• You may want to consider a magnesium supplement


• Back to warm or hot - rub some coconut oil on the sore spots (or some other essential oils)


• Move around more - this may actually counteract the soreness and make it settle sooner


• Stretch - this is - as movement in general - going to help you out > your body will get used to the muscle use more quickly


• Massage the sore spots (my favorite)

• Rest > if everything else fails, or when all else is done

I have been training for around 12 years (bodybuilding, swimming , core , and resently trying Calasthenis )

Extra magnesium/potasuim does help to some effect.. (Including BCAA and glutemine - tones of stuff you can take)

I say rather heal and rest properly untill the latic acid/pain goes away..

I have trained the pain away before.. Yeah it worked on some occations.. But
I think it increased my risk to injuries... Taking week off training after 8 weeks of high intencity training does help. (not training for a week is easier said than done)

Eating clean and healthy is the best way to go. All these added suppliments
are sometime a waste of time.. You body can only absorb and use so much. The rest.. well... that goes to waste

Good luck..

I agree. =)
I don't believe in any supplements - better drink milk, eat fruits and vegetables, lean meats and nuts and you'll be fine. =)

Good take, a lot of people complain about doms but I tell you what I love them haha tells me j have given my muscles a pounding and its repairing itself, I can vouch for these things they work. Stretching and foam rolling are so underrated they make such a difference. Moving around more people need to learn this one haha, get the blood flowing to the muscles, it's basically the same concept as a pump and the magnesium on is right too that why people take thing like zma before bed, take this advice people it will help. Good take
