    I do a low intensity day and spend some time in compression gear, seems to help considerably.

    take some ibuprofen and keep working out regularly. If I am really hurting though, yoga works wonders.

    I stretch a lot and massage my muscles a lot. Sometimes I wish I was sore because it makes stretching and massaging feel SO good lol.

    I don't really do anything different exercise-wise, though. I will still run if I'm sore, but I take days off in between strength training anyway. I will still do strength the day after that though but it's usually a different area of my body so it's not an issue.
  • I bask in the awesomeness of my soreness and keep on working hard. I alternate days so I'm not usually sore still by the time I get back to that muscle group and if I am I just push through it.
