not getting sore?

Hey was looking for some answers to this one.

I work out bi daily sometimes everyday depending on how sore i feel. However lately I ahve been working really hard to muscle failure and just not getting sore the next day. If I do feel sore its very mild and easily ignored. is this normal?

I am taking Lipo 6 black Hers ( one a day max ) pre work out, and then drinking a protein shake after that has 60+ g of protein.

I am a 5'5" 150 pound female.

    muscle soreness or lack thereof is not a reliable indicator of the effectiveness of a workout.




    and what's "bi daily"? is that some new sex thing?

    I actually tend to NOT get sore after workouts...unless it is the first time I am doing something. My trainer takes great pride in finding new and challenging things for me to do. Nothing makes him smile more than asking me how I feel and me saying "ouch!". Are you mixing up your routine so you do new things frequently, or are you doing the same thing every other day? I don't think I have done the same thing 2 training sessions in a row in months. I even have about 6 routines to rotate through when I am not working with my trainer ( I only work with him 1x a week. The other 4 I am on my own)

    I was just going to recommend that. Glad it worked for you! :)

    I found last week that I was starting to feel less sweating during and less sore after my workouts, and concluded I probably needed more of a challenge. So I used a bit higher weight yesterday and pushed myself a bit harder. Definitely feeling it today!
