I had leg day on Sunday. A new routine full of squats and lunges. I was sore yesterday , and now I’m really sore today. It’s running day. Do I ignore the soreness and go anyway, or let the soreness pass first?
I did leg day Thursday. I'm always sore the most 3 days after. I drink a lot of water and eat a lot of vegetables.
I think it depends on the 'type' of soreness....some soreness is good (general muscle soreness from a new routine) and some is bad (a strain/pull/tear). If it is just the former, I tend to keep going. But if it is the latter I would 'baby' it and rest....alternate cold and heat. Depending on how often you work out, sometimes the body just needs some recovery time too.
