    I have the same thing. If im on the tennis court the first runs are really bad! I look like an old men of 80 years old. I think i'll start first with drinking water. Can this be also tea or does it need to be plain water?

    Agreed with all of the above
    Also make sure you're getting plenty of sleep
    For me, staying active in general, drinking tons of water, taking time to cool down after a workout and getting extra sleep are all imperative to prevent "can't-even-sit-on-the-toilet-broken-old-lady-syndrome"

    Yer broken old lady syndrome worked I had a big gun bottle if water b cordial to flush any toxins feel allot better today X

    what toxins are you flushing out that your organs dont?

    I can't speak for the OP but there's still a lot of myths out there of soreness being a result of lactic acid buildup.

    Wait is it not due to the lactic acid?

    Educate me here please, I always thought it was.

    Also, add magnesium. You can take a supplement tablet or eat vegetables or soak in epsom salts for that.
