I have started working out. And I have been extremely sore for the last 2 days.. I didnt do much I just did around 20 minutes of crunches and running in place and thigh exercises..
I almost feel like I got hit by a bus. my abs are still sore from 3 days ago?
Is this supposed to happen EVERYTIME I work out ? I bought a workout DVD because I LOVE THE FEELING OF WORKING OUT but i HATE the feeling it gives me the next day and couple days after?? what am I supposed to do.? and is this normal?
thanks guys

It definitely eases up with time. DOMS in the first month or so can be a total nightmare. After five months, I barely even notice it anymore, even after my heaviest lifting sessions.0

It's your muscles telling you that you really are out of shape and need to keep at it. It gets better as you get stronger and taking long rest periods off between workouts will just keep it happening. Usually some stretching and a light workout will actually ease the pain.0

make sure you are staying well hydrated. Stay far far far away from those fancy drinks and stick to water.0

How am I missing this? Point it out because I don't see it. And I'm blonde, so there's that, too.0 -

from urban dictionary:
mia
unless you have/have had/know someone with with and eating disorder, you would not know that it is short for bulimia.
contrary to what the news feeds controversy-hungry-people it is NOT to make bulimia sound like a friendly bff or anything, just a short version of the word, pretty much only used on the internet, just like any acronym used on msn - just a shorter type
ana
a 'pet name' for anorexia nervosa.
there are many arguements over the use of this word. some believe the girls who use the ana dont actually have an eating disorder, they just want one, wannabes who try to have an eating disorder and flaunt their lack of calories in blogs such as on xanga,livejournal and myspace.
others believe that ana is simply a lazy way to say anorexia, and cant be bothered to actually type that every time.
whatever you believe, anorexia is not a fad, trend or anything but what it truely is; a disease that ruins lives, not only that of the sufferer. families are torn apart, and lives are lost. anorexia can prevent you from having children, cause heart,liver and kidney problems and cause hair lose.

Since drinking a protein shake within 30 minutes after lifting, I haven't had DOMS. Working great for me.0

Nice try. But.....
1. Your name is not Mia
2. The nature of this site attracts a lot of people with eating disorders. Even if it was your name/nickname have some consideration and change it. (my nickname IRL has been Big Dave all my life. This is the only site in the world where I'm not Big Dave)0 -
ok thank you for the advice

You can take advil for the pain, but just a little. you don't want to take any painkillers before you workout though, as it can mask the pain from serious injury. staying hydrated, stretching and moving-light to moderate exercise is good. also the DOMS is a way to let you know that your body has broken down muscle to make even more muscle...take to heart that when you feel that ache, it's a good thing. even if sometimes it makes it hard to sit down...LOL

thank you for your concern. but i been on this site for 3 months so far and i barely learned what MIA meant in the fitness world.. i actually changed my name 1 month after being on this site because i posted my real name in it so originally it was

my name-MIA=beautiful-my name.. so i changed it because i didnt want people with my name on here so i changed it to
lovelyBEAUTIFULlovely =lovelyMIAlovely
so i changed it the maximum amount of times already which is once....
idk what to tell you.... i mean... i should have done my research but to be honest i had no idea people with eating disorders were on a fitness site.. soooo... idk... i know that I am doing things the healthy way.. thats all that matters i guess....0 -

Like everyone said, you'll be less sore as you get into better shape. Just a tip though, I personally don't experience any soreness until 2 days after a big workout, so I make sure that if I work out extra hard, then I take a break the next day, otherwise, the two-day-after soreness will hit so bad that I can hardly move for the day.0
