This pain you’re feeling is known as delayed onset muscle soreness, often referred to as DOMS, and it usually appears 24 to 48 hours after your weight-training session. Ease your muscle soreness after lifting weights with tried-and-true techniques such as foam rolling, light movement and heat therapy.A hot bath is a fantastic way to loosen muscles post-workout. A hot bath with Epsom salts is even better, because the magnesium in the solution can be absorbed through the skin, helping reduce soreness and improve muscle function.

The heat and buoyancy of water also speeds blood flow, which helps you relax and sleep soundly.The science: Multiple studies show that pre-workout caffeine consumption can reduce subsequent muscle soreness and fatigue. In one study published in the Journal of Pain, the strategy scored.While the lactic acid is responsible for the weight-training burn, it is not related to the muscle soreness that also occurs after working out.

Muscle Soreness After Weight Training. During weight training, you break down muscles with microscopic tears. While this is a natural part of weight training, it can cause soreness for up to 48 hours.Unfortunately, if you’re already in the throes of monumental soreness, the only sure-fire remedy is time (generally, DOMS lasts about two to three days after the soreness.After participating in some kind of strenuous physical activity, particularly something new to your body, it is common to experience muscle soreness, say experts.

Supplementing with amino acids half an hour before and after your workout can help reduce the soreness. 1 If you supplement with a quick release protein powder after workouts or a workout matrix with amino acids supplied, these can also work to attenuate DOMS. Taking a supplement with an amino acid profile containing glutamine can especially help.If you experience severe muscle soreness or pain that persists for several days following a weight training session, you should not continue lifting weights.

This could result in an injury to your muscles or worsening of your current symptoms. Muscle soreness should be cared for before you begin your fitness routine again.How to Relieve Sore Muscles from Weight Lifting.

Sore muscles that stem from a demanding weightlifting session are caused by tiny tears in your muscles that occur during your workout. Sore muscles mean two things: You are doing it right and your muscles are getting stronger as they heal. The tears in your muscles are.

While soreness or tenderness is often natural, your body is probably telling you that you need to take a day or two off before getting back to your workout. If you’re working the muscles against resistance, like lifting weights or other weight-bearing activities, you need to take a break between workouts.Getting really sore after lifting weights doesn’t necessarily mean that you had a good workout that will lead to gains.

You can stimulate muscle growth without experiencing extreme soreness. That said, you should feel something after a tough workout. Most people experience more soreness when dieting, but that doesn’t mean they’re gaining more.2) Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness – also referred to as DOMS, this is the muscle soreness you feel 24 hours after your workout, which may last up to 72 hours.

After a your muscles get sore, they rapidly adapt to reduce further damage from the same exercises, which is called the “repeated-bout” effect.Delayed onset muscle soreness usually “creeps” in after a day or two after your training and can last three days to one week, depending on your level of fitness. Let me give you a couple of examples. Let’s say you take a month off from training.

You come back to the gym and hit the weights hard without “taking it easy”.Preventing acute soreness in your upper body is the best tactic. Warm up sufficiently before lifting to help your muscles more efficiently process breakdown and waste materials. Lifting 20 to 30 percent of your target weight, and doing arm circles and short sets of pushups are ways to prepare the chest, biceps and triceps for heavier lifts.

But as for what might cause soreness, let’s consider the spectrum of lifting wrongness. On one extreme, there is lifting so wrong that you are putting yourself at certain risk of immediate injury.

Surprisingly, soreness seems to result more from “negative” repetitions—that is, when you are lowering a weight—than from positive repetitions, lifting the weight.

  • it may be because i keep PUSHING my arms and pressuring them. it became weird to feel i have sore arms
    Edit: i wrote this on sunday, it went away now. it’s now monday! by the way, i went swimming the other day and maybe that’s what happend. i got exercise from that and my shoulders got sore.

  • 5 h workout yesterday but i dont regret it am i the only one Who likes soreness because you feel like then you did something or its working

  • I always go for a good walk after my workout, then i have lunch after. The walk is the best solution for me. I also do a few stretches.

  • Three flag football games in a tournament, all ironman as only 7 showed up. 120 minutes over all.

    I feel like hell today.

  • Soreness is good. It indicates that you’ve worked hard enough to cause micro-tears and inflammation in the muscle. The body’s natural response to that damage is to repair and regrow the muscle bigger and stronger to avoid further damage. This is the basic fundamental of body building. In order to get bigger muscles, you have to stress them first.

  • I’d like to see videos on heart rate variability and other indicators of overtraining and impending injury. Injury predictability is also another topic I’d like to explore.

  • How do people start a workout regime for a month when on the second day you’re as weak as dead meat?

  • It last for 2.5 days the first day it hurst it stops later hours later it comes back then kinda hurts more then it stop

  • I can’t even stretch out my left arm all the way and my pecs are sore too so I think ima need protein shakes

  • Im a couch potato.
    Im not really fat im actually quite skinny so i decided to work out eating alot of protein etc.
    And on my first workout i had sore mucles for 3 days straight.

  • “Roll the parts of the body you worked that day” he says. Well, I played baseball for the first time in over 20 years and I am pretty much sure I worked 99% of the muscles in my body. Maybe a steamroller would be the better option? On a serious note, why not mention massage? I realize that it takes a second person to get the full body, but anyone with a spouse or partner could manage.

  • i can’t walk properly or sit on the toilet properly, and i made the mistake of trying to go on a run yesterday while sore and i just made it worse (wowee what a surprise), so now i’m here:D

  • I can’t even take a dump without crying bruh��and I can’t even lift a pillow cause of my T. rex arms I hate it here ong

  • During those times when you feel like you’re the unluckiest person in the world and that you’re the only one who’s suffering, just remember, there are people all over the globe and on the other side of the world that are going through the same thing. Where can you find them? The comments section on YouTube.

  • I had a really really intense leg workout a few days ago and sitting on the toilet is the hardest thing imaginable. I plop down on the toilet seat like a starfish and hope for the best

  • Hey there, I am a 14 year old boy and I just started getting back into exercising and doing workouts (For a very long time I have just been going on slow walks and just lying in my bed all day), I have been doing stomach workouts and I started on Friday (24th) and I was fine until Saturday I woke up and got pain in my upper thigh, now it is Sunday and should I keep doing the workout everyday the one I started Friday with or is it best to the relax or do different stretching etc. Would love some feedback, Thank you!

  • False. Lactic acid builds up when you work out. It doesn’t cause actual muscle soreness. Micro tears in the muscle from working out causes the soreness…do your research. For years people thought it was the lactic acid that made you sore, but recent study over the last few years or so say otherwise.

  • Hello.
    Can you please recommend wyhat exercises to do to recover from Osteonecrosis of left hemural head please?
    Thabk you

  • Great video! One of the ways I recover after a heavy workout or cardio session is with my percussion massage gun, I use to suffer from soreness but not anymore!
    Got mine at Voltacious.com

  • I either heal way to fast to ever get DOMS or I just can’t train hard enough to ever experience it. It’s rare for me to get muscle soreness.

  • Ice bath and stretch are definitely the way to go.

    Studies can be flawed in their methodology and shouldn’t always be the final say so.

    Innumerable professional athletes from fighters to football players and runners, even military special forces, utilize ice baths regularly and incorporate regular stretching into their routine. Utilize what works for your body.

  • i had ankle bone fracture surgery & a heel fracture. i am in 13 week post operation. my ankle and feet feeling soreness during weight bearing. and also ankle in still stiffer. please suggest me some excercise to get my ROM and strength back as soon as possible.

  • Can i ask questions sir..
    Last day It was my first gym work out then a few days after that my muscle such as arm is painful.. To the point i can’t straight it properly,is that a normal?
    Need urgent comment sir

  • if I don’t feel a little soreness in a muscle group the next day or day after, I didn’t work that group hard enough…
    so this soreness actually makes me feel good and satisfied..!

  • If you drink orange juice before or immediately after a workout, it removes the lactic acid buildup in your muscles.

  • So like over school holidays, I have been in my bed and all not rlly working out. So I went back to school, we did squats then after that I thought it was just a little after pain, turns out it wasn’t! I can really feel it now����

  • Slept 8 hours got out of bed nearly cryed self massage worked then stopped stretching made it a little worse haven’t tryed the cold shower yet ate felt no change it’s just something we have 2 deal with��

  • I’m watching this at 5 am cuz I can’t sleep cuz my leg hurts all night, I want to kill myself. Sitting there for 2 hours straight with your leg hurting insanely bad while you can’t do a thing so you just cry in your bed isn’t healthy for me, but I don’t have a choice and Im still doing it right now. Im gonna try to sleep. Maybe that will help somehow, even though I think I can’t fall asleep cuz the pain is too much.

  • This vid is a guy taught from big pharma with lies,,never touch a sore muscle as much as you want to will heal twice as fast

  • I went to some workout camp and I’m like a stick man I can’t move my arms or legs and I still have 2 more days ��

  • I’m a dancer who’s been stretching quite consistently, I’ve had sores but never stopped stretching, probably should have��

  • All athletes know the pain when that one person makes you run more cause they won’t shut up that happened to me today we couldn’t even run without falling it was that bad

  • I did one of those booty workouts on youtube ����. I did it 5 times in a row and I was tired. Today when I woke up, my back and thighs were killing me EVERYTIME i used them. ��

  • I just threw hard in a baseball game, I turned twelve three months ago and was throwing around 60-63 miles per hour, my shoulder is a bit sore and my biceps hurt, I need to pitch in this tournament, I need to make my arms feel better

  • Watching this as I bend over like I’m 95 years old. Do exercise, they say, it’ll slow down aging, they say.
    XD In all honesty, I love that post workout soreness:)

  • I’m in the hospital with rhabdomyolysis. This really hurts. I just want to be able to walk normal without the pain

  • Been having pain all over my body like if blood doesnt floods. I exercise everyday 2 hours and just yesterday my legs been feeling a burning feeling that’s move up to my whole body.

  • I kinda like the feeling of being sore. means I can feel my progress. however I don’t like it when im still sore when its time to workout again…

  • I haven’t danced in a while and I had a class yesterday and now my leg wants to kill me and it feels numb not from the pain but it’s just numb from other things

  • i was doing the splits yesterday, and it was all fine until i got out of my right split, and it was just instant pain (I’ve also been working out all week, so i was already sore)

  • Lol I have cups of coffee a day. An lots of water of course to make up for the dehydration. Rather do this that over spend on pre workout shakes.

  • We all know this feeling, pain that you can’t move. Great stretching helps to release tension in your muscles. You can also use a great Gun Massager for: myofascial release, lactic acid decomposition, deep massage. Hightly recommended. Stay healthy and flexible 😉

  • I ran for 30 minutes yesterday, 500 jumping jacks, and 150 reverse lunges. my legs are about to fall off

  • Does the burning leads to muscle growth? that’s all I want to know, like is that saying no pain. no gains. true or not?

  • I, who barely ever get out of the bed thought it was a good idea to exercise for 2 days straight on arms, abdominal and legs muscle intensely and now i’m basically paralyzed

  • I see a lot of people in the comments who are suffering too huh…. I got bored and did 500 squads in less than 15 minutes. My legs have been sore the last 2 days. I’m dying slowly

  • I’m 65 and had total hip replacement 5 weeks ago. The physical therapist had me doing 2 sets of 10 squats (20 total) the first week. By the 3rd week, 3 sets of 10 plus 10 minutes on a stationary bike, leg press, calf raises, rubber band exercises, etc and stretching, always stretching. He always started with the bike and ended with massage and ice packs, never any soreness. Maybe the warm up, stretching, massage and ice packs did the trick.

  • Yesterday I was working out too much for about 1 hour and 20 mins and today i can barely walk guy dont work out for more than 30 mins dont do it

  • Fuck your Jeremy, in one your home workout videos, you said to push your muscles to “near failure” now I’ve had muscle soreness for nearly a week

  • i had dance for the first time this monday and it’s now wednesday and i cant even get out of my bed….

  • Muscle soreness is bullshit i fucking had a very shitty back day and had to decrease my weight by 15 pounds just to be able to work my lats dont fucking go sparing and box before back day its ass

  • I just got back into football and they did conditioning early because of the quarantine and now I can’t feel my body

  • i just started working out after not working out for 4 months because of quarantine and the first time i workout after a break i cant do anything with my arms i cant play video games, i cant do my violin and i cant even go to the bathroom. any help?

  • Lifting grocery bags with bottles of apple juice yesterday �� it feels tight like uncomfortable to stretch my arms

  • It sucks to have sore muscles for me cause I’m on my high schools Nordic skiing team and the strength training we’re doing is so hard on my body but we have practice every day. So there is no time to relax and I know I’m not the only one with this problem. Help?

  • My arms hurt like hell i did 1000 push ups with only a 30 seconds rest between 100 push ups

    Edit: i only do 1000 push ups every Saturday before that i try to let my arms rest and train other parts of my body i want to be fast and at the same time have unbelievable punching power

  • this doesnt help because everyone here worked out the day before and is dealing with the aftermath the next day, definetly not related to the title

  • My arm is so painful and sore for 3 days after I did a excessive amount of lifting. ��but this video really did helped����

  • I can’t move. I can’t do any of these things, my sister is unwilling to give me food. My time on earth seems to be over.

  • Hi Dr. Jo can you do a video on exercises for people with knock knees? I was wondering if I strengthened my abductors more that they’d possibly become more normal and less valgus.

  • I worked out without stretching one time and biggest mistake of my life and on top of that it was the hardest I’ve ever worked out

  • I’ve had Doms many time after I start and reset on gym many times. Lol, it’s a fucked up feeling, you need 2 days rest after the 1st day at the gym workout. Then it’s all about maintaining it

  • Im doing the 2 week shred challenge and im so sore but i dont wanna take a break bc it feels like ive failed the challenge:(

  • I disagree. Don’t tell anyone. Keep it to yourself. Let them notice how you’ve changed. It won’t come off as needy, and dependent on everyone else’s approval.

  • Getting back into training after a decade of being a nurse. I should have watched this video first because I pushed myself too much on my first leg day. I think it’s kinda difficult not to push yourself too much in the gym when everyone around is super fit and pushing themselves also. I think I will take your advice and go a little easier on my leg day because this is now day #3 of recovery and I am still in lots of pain.

  • I work construction & my body’s so sore after coming back from a coronavirus pause, this video was so helpful ��

  • I went skating for my first time and I did it for two hours and now my butt, thigh, and arms hurt �� so that’s why I searched this up

  • Sir, I’m not sure that the “acid generating metabolites” are to blame. Ketones are turned into pyruvate and the lactic acid makes the burning.

  • Who else is done with there first week of going to a gym with a personal trainer and hurting so bad you can’t sleep wondering what u got my self back into. Reason why I haven’t gone to a gym in years

  • Who’s here the day after a heavy gym workout? Yesterday, I did a gym workout for the first time since lockdown began (4 months) and my whole body is on fire today �� went heavy on the squats on the first day back and my quads are sore AF!

  • The soreness later on is from delayed onset muscle soreness from microscopic muscle fibers being damaged from the load being placed on it from working out, not from lactic acid (technically just lactate)

  • Personally I prefer doms over any other kind of pain because it’s proof of progress. Whereas a pulled muscle or joint pain prevents me from doing anything in the targeted area

  • So I fell on my right butt cheek couple years ago. I did go to pt which it did help. I’ve recently lost about 90 pounds and the pain is starting to bother me now. The pain start in the are where I fell and kinda go down my leg it’s more kinda annoying that hurtful. What kind of stretch can I do to ease some of the pain?

  • Arms and chest hurt like a bitch but I ain’t stopping working out
    If you move it will hurt less and take a shower with muscle salt

  • Great video! Very clear, helpful and no unnecessary marketing pitches… I never regret having subscribed to this channel…

  • When your already fit but your DaMn annoying teacher makes you exercise hard and it hurts and they make you do it harder to kill the muscles

  • The handle on this is what makes it good. I just ordered one. Thank you for the discount! Merry Christmas!!

  • Thank you for your information and help me out a lot I have been doing a lot of arm curve and My arms have been aching Your information really help me out

  • I am sleeping and eating a lot from past 24 hr but still don’t have any energy in arms to go gym today ������

  • I have been recommended this kind of protein, is it good to reduce muscle soreness
    https://amzn.to/2VLtynW

  • if i workout 3 times a week i don’t feel any soreness, but when i do only 1 time a week that really fucking sore for sure

  • Today i woke up without being able to even move yet i went to the gym and made 40 minutes more of cardio… big mistake

  • bruh I deadass just wanna go take a shit without the pain lmaoo, i shouldn’t of trained so hard today ��

  • My arms won’t straighten since after arms workout 3 days ago, Il give untill end of today, looks like back too legs tomorrow again ��

  • Am I a weirdo for actually enjoying having Doms? I find getting really sore muscles rubbed incredibility enjoyable….Oooh that sweet, sweet feeling that makes you scream when they’re massaged! It’s the finest of lines between pleasure and “pain”.

  • lmao anyone else here after they reopened the gyms
    i just over did it yesterday lmaoooo i had been running to try to stay in shape but obviously i’m not using all the muscles that i do when i’m in the gym

  • We had cheerdance and i had to lift my leg up and that day my leg is already sore but i didn’t care, its been 1 week and 4 days since that day and its not yet recovered…I’m starting to freak out and i can’t lift leg like i used to do

  • I’m a physio student and there was a question in my final exams and it said that static stretching reduced DOMS…

  • bruhhhhh we got a pull up bar recently and i was trying it out I did like 15 chin ups and like 9 pull ups and my left arm, both shoulders and my back near my shoulders r still sore, it’s been 2 days and i just copped the home workouts and now i have to wait another day bruh

  • Soreness is not caused by micro tears. Nobody knows what causes it but the generally agreed reason is free radicals and impurity build up during exercise. This is suppose to be a science based channel.

  • Gotta have a little 1v1 powerlifting meet with my friend in 2 days. I worked out yesterday. I have rested all day today and I’m going to rest tomorrow as well. Wish me luck.

  • Well said. Great stretching helps to release tension in your muscles. You can also use a great Gun Massager for: myofascial release, lactic acid decomposition, deep massage. Hightly recommended. Stay healthy and flexible 😉

    The mental high is worth the physical pain

  • Lmao I lift every day and do cardio everyday and I don’t have sore muscle. It’s called adaptation to the stress. Your body adapts and muscle recovery increases due to always experience stress. For example I train biceps everyday. But I don’t have any problem like muscle soreness. Also I have 3.5% Neanderthal DNA in mr maybe that could help and give me an advantage.

    Me: Hold my drink (which will be my fifth cup of coffee)
