I did 30 min workout on my arms (Sweat with Kayla app). First time working out in a very long time. For some odd reason I'm not sore, then again it's only been 5 hours since the workout ended. Does that mean I didn't push myself hard enough. I mean, I did all reps the correct way and even when I was doing it, I felt kinda tired. I was sweating like crazy as well haha! Opinions please?

    No, it doesn't mean you didn't work hard enough. I never get DOMS... My husband gets no sympathy after leg day :D

    You'll probably feel it tomorrow :) Sometimes I don't feel sore for 24 hours when doing something new, or after a long period of not not working out.

    They call it DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness) for a reason. :D

    Let us know how you feel tomorrow. There's usually a delay.

    30 minutes of arms? You probably won't be able to use them in a day or 2. Next time start with 1-2 sets and add a set each workout.

    Oh and strength training isn't about sweating. That's cardio. :+1:

    What an odd goal for training but I supposed you achieved the goal.....
    I was sweating like crazy as well haha!

    Opinions please?
    Pick a more effective workout? Your arms are connected to the rest of your body, sounds a horribly inefficient way to train.

    PS - hope you aren't too sore tomorrow but at least you will be able to train your legs. :)

    As the others have mentioned, 5 hours is way too soon to experience DOMS.

    Tomorrow you may have trouble dressing yourself. :grin:
