    I do usually, but hate when my shoulders are sore..
    Love sore legs though.

    Same here. Sore legs feel great! Shoulders, tho...not so much.

    Yes, even though it hurts to move, it is a feeling of accomplishment because whatever workout you were doing was challenging, but you got through it!

    I went to visit my sister a couple of months ago and she was doing Jamie Eason's live fit program and so I went to work out with her. I wasn't used to heavy lifting so didn't know what to expect.. Goooood lord. I stayed down when she did legs, back, shoulders, biceps, abs, and triceps I think, a period of over 3 days.. First day was legs, so I would barely walk, then shoulders and abs, so the next day after that I couldn't undress.. You know, you go to pull your shirt off over your head and get stuck? haha, that was me. I was entertaining, that's for sure.

    I do as well. Makes me believe that I am doing something right.

    Not exactly, but it also depends on how severe the soreness is and how long it lasts.

    I like it as long as I can walk down the stairs w/out wanting to cry and as long as I can blow dry my hair and starighten it without stopping every minute because my shoulders are on fire. Other than that I don't mind being sore at all.

    I have a slight love/hate relationship with it. I don't mind being a little sore because it means I am working my body well, but I don't like it when it feels almost debilitating

    I'm a glutton for punishment. For some reason, I LOVE being sore! Just makes me feel like I really challenged myself :)

    Within reason. I do love that post-workout glow, where you feel both battered and, yet, somehow better and more alive than when you started.

    Love it, sometimes I deliberately don't stretch so it'll hurt more.

    If I've done something new or increased my intensity I don't mind being a little sore, but I wouldn't want to be sore on the daily basis. I texercise to enhance my life, not make it miserable. I hate when my shoulders get too sore though because it always leads to a tension headache.

    Soreness has nothing to do with growth/muscle tissue or fat loss, so no I don't really care for being sore.

    Sometimes yes, and sometimes no. Depends...

    I find that ab pain makes me feel like I have been in a car accident...haha It hurts to laugh, sneeze, sit, stand, bend, etc.
    Shoulder/neck pain is also bad....

    But legs/butt pain make me feel like I worked out good!
