Hello, when i first started training the next day i used to feel really stiff and pretty much ****ed,
But now i dont really feel anything the next day, straight after training i feel good and all my muscles feel hard and bigger but not for long.
Is this normal?? Or should i ache or something the next day?? How should i feel?
Thanks

Post your routine up...

newkidonthebloc

i know what you mean attitude

when i first started training i had really bad doms and ached like **** for the next day or 2 usually due to poor form and not actually knowing what i was doing.

then i started a decent routine, still got them occasioanlly but not as bad, now i feel more ****ed directly after a workout, like now im sitting here slouched as my body just wants to sleep haha. but tomorrow ill be fine,

how ever i do get doms for a few days after doing bench. mainly on my upper chest by my shoulders.

I do pretty much all excercises to failure and i do feel like im pushing myself at the time. I do get the odd ache now and then, but was just wondering if i should feel really ****ed or something like i used to

When i first started i got bad DOMS but now i rarely get any....

So long as your routine is good and your diet is great you'll grow no worries

first of all u should not be doing all this in one work out lol try splitting it up in to 3 days
day 1 : chest and tris
day 2 : back and bis
day 3 : sholders and legs

smithy26

do u do this all in 1 day?
if yes then ure trainning regime needs changing

Liam

Your doing far to many exercises in my opinion. Deadlift / Squats / Bench / Bent over Rows / Standing Overhead Press / Pull downs.. all u need

newkidonthebloc

your routine looks simular to what i was doings, lots of isolation exercises, never did legs the same day though.

try cutting the exercises down and replacing them with compounds (bench, dips, chins)
id personaly do less exercises with more weight.

you get your stiffness from lactic acid, just stretch off a bit after you workout, it'll cycle the acid around your body and dispose it, you probably knew that but hey

matokane

if u train a muscle group hard enough there will be no stretching it off after the work out lol

I would like to change my workout but its set by the gym people and i dont really know how to say to them that i think its all wrong.
What if i carry on the same but split the workout in half so do half monday and then half wednesday etc??
