I find that sitting in the sauna at the YMCA means I'm TOTALLY not sore the next day, even if I have the kind of weight lifting session that leaves my arms shaky right after. I make sure to warm up before I do anything strenuous- getting my heart rate up gradually instead of hopping on the treadmill and running like there's a gaggle of hungry five year olds chasing me, holding spoons and screaming "ICE CREAM!!"
I make sure and strech after a workout too, which helps me feel loose instead of all tight and "OMG muscle cramp!"
If your gym doesn't have a sauna (god bless the YMCA) then try a hot shower or bath, or a whirlpool.
