Workout and soreness question

[Guest guest]

I'm hoping for some wisdom - I'm fairly new to the whole working out

thing and ran into something that is making no sense to me.

In March I started BFL. The beginning of June, I switched to

Turbulence Training Intermediate. When I switched, I never had any

soreness or feeling like I was pushing the muscles.

But. . . I took off last week (family vacation). No strength training

at all. I did do some cardio.

I started my TT workout again on Saturday - very sore on Sunday.

Another strength session on Monday, and now on Tuesday, again

incredibly sore.

I've been doing this workout since the beginning of June with no

soreness. Did taking a week off change something? Could there be

another reason why I'm now getting sore when I wasn't before with the

same workout?

Hi Nita,

You probably worked into things slowly when you began in March, going

very gently on your muscles. After taking the week off, you probably

didn't do any kind of " ramp up " and jumped in to your " normal " routine

(which is now at a higher level than in March, since you've been

working so hard

Believe it or not, muscles do get out of shape in as little as a few

days. The soreness is normal.

Sounds like a lovely case of DOMS after being off for a week.? My guess is

another week and it'll go away again.

Thanks for the replies! I never knew just a few days off could make

such a difference. Boy do I feel it though!
