true or false

true or false:

in order to know that you are obtaining the full benefits in a work out, you should be in pain the next day.

some ppl have told me that since i don't feel sore hte next day after a workout that i'm not doing a "proper" workout and that i've just plateaued.. is this true? should one ALWAYS feel sore after a workout??

No,it is normal to feel sore if you over stress during a workout.If you have trained those muscles to be in good shape,a "regular" workout shouldn't bother you a bit.

yeah, my regular workout doesn't make me sore anymore.. maybe i need to take myself to the next level and add more weights so that i don't plateau..

To hell with plateau's. A regular workout builds muscle density as well as mass.

soreness is not an indicator of an effective workout, neither is no soreness. what IS an indicator is how much weight you lift the next time

yeah, but i always count a little soreness as a good sign... or at least a useful way to tell which muscles are being used and how much... especially when switching my exercises round

Me too, a little bit of stiffness and the odd ache i like to take as a good workout, but too much indicates that i just messed up.

Soreness lasting 24-72 hours also indicates that there has been some minor muscle damage (beyond what you want), which isn't good for anyone.

I say no to pain, but feeling a burn the next day is great. The way I understand it, you build muscle by breaking it down during the workout. Your muscle gets stronger during the rest period between workouts because it rebuilds itself and this causes the burning. The muscle fibers during the rebuilding phase come back stronger because your body knows these muscles need to be stronger in order to endure the workload that you are putting it through.

so no to pain, but yes to a burn and to soreness.

of course, I could be completely wrong.

so is a lack of soreness the next day a sign that i should be beefing up my workout routine?

i don't know if i've ever felt a burning sensation in my muscles the next day. i've felt sore in the past, but not burning.. usually the burning i feel is felt right after i finish a set.

soreness/pump/burn is just the lactic acid. it doesn't mean it's repairing the microtears. muscle adaptation is in response to neural stress actually.
