So I have been working out 5-6x a week since June. I am not fit by any means, but when I did that video last night, I felt pretty good...I knew I would be sore, but OMG. I have to go to work this morning, and the gym after..I am hoping what people say about only 4 days of soreness and it gets better...
Its funny how basic moves can hurt so bad...lol

    Yeah it's tough. I take some Motrin after I am done. I feel less sore the next day when I take it.

    You know what? I was pleasantly surprised waking up this morning; I expected to be so sore I could barely move. I am sore, but not as sore as I thought I would be so I am going to proceed and do D2L1 today instead of taking a day off. That may be signing my death warrant, but I have a feeling I just need to keep going instead of taking breaks.

    I'm mostly sore in my pecs. It hurts to move my arms, but it's a good hurt. It'll get easier. That much i remember.

    I did about 4 days of it last week. After my first 2 times, I could barely move I was so sore. But by the end of the week I felt much better! Stay with it and it really will get easier...and less painful ;)

    I know exactly what you mean. I woke up this morning and I honestly can hardly walk! I feel pathetic! I knew my thighs would be super sore because that's what I always have issues with, but my hamstrings are also on fire and I did not expect that.

    The weird thing is, my arms were what hurt the most during the work out (I have no upper body strength, so even the push-ups killed me), but they feel fine today. That was a nice little surprise. My abs aren't too bad either.

    Today is my day 5... I've been sore all week everywhere. Abs, butt, thighs, arms.. But today it actually wasn't as bad as yesterday. There could be some truth to the 4 day rule.
