Weight Training Tip

Soreness is a defense mechanism for your body and is comparable to swelling. If you're experiencing soreness from a tough leg workout, try taking a walk or a light jog. Doing either of these will help to avoid soreness by increasing the blood flow to the muscles, and will increase your core body temperature? If your muscles ache immediately after you've exercised, try icing whatever muscle it is that you worked. You may also want to try a cool shower. If you are experiencing pain the day after your workout, try taking a warm shower and doing some gentle stretches. After you've warmed your muscles, then you can apply ice.
