DOMS

DOMS. Anyone who trains regularly has had a case of DOMS. Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. I've been feeling my Saturday leg workout till now. It hurts. My thighs are sore, hamstrings are tight, and I'm walking like a penguin. Sometimes I love the reassurance, but other times, like now, I feel like I'm dying. The best way, for me at least, to deal with it is to stretch. For legs, I like to do deep stretches where I can feel the pull in the muscle. Because honestly all DOMS is is tighter muscles. And they hurt. Always try to stretch after training and especially after cardio sessions that are intense
