    It's been mentioned above but I emphasis: drink plenty of water before your workout, get protein in your sytem quickly after your work out, and soreness is part of the process of fitness but hot/cold baths and foam rollers will help eliminate the lactic acid from your muscles quicker. Good luck.

    What are these foam rollers everyone keeps posting about? Explain please! :)

    Google it. Think a big rolling pin made of dense foam. You roll it against your muscles (or more accurately, you lay on it and roll against it) to "massage" them.
