    Yup. Just keep at it. Your body will adjust. :)

    My grandma never looked like you do, my lady! lol

    Your body will adjust, either in being sore for less time after and/or less intense soreness. But even after years of training, if you go out and kill a workout with more intensity than your body has grown accustomed to seeing, the soreness will return. (Ask my legs after yesterday's leg blitz, wow, been a while.)

    I know. I started a new program this week, PHUL, and the added hypertrophy work has caused some fun DOMS. Gonna go for a walk.

    I also recommend stretching when you are sore, it will help minimize it. But yes it will improve, keep going.
