Hey there,
I was pretty busy last week so didnt get time to work out...so basically took a break for a week, when i started back this week i continued using the same weights when i had left the week before, and may be this has caused my body to be more sore than usual, i was wondering if there could be any ways or techniques to make the muscles recover faster, may be some kind of massage i could do or some other treatment or some kind of yoga or stuff...i dont even know if i'm making sense or not, so just reply back ok :p
Thanx alot

sauna usually helps me out with doms.

any sort of heat treatment, such as hot bath, sauna etc. Also ice or cold treatmet, so ice on the sore areas or ice cold bath. You could also try massge and also simple stretching to relieve tightness and doms
