Looking good!

You need to come with a warning sign before these posts as thatā€™s the second time Iā€™ve possibly been seen looking at a picture of you in your pants whilst Iā€™m at work :slight_smile:

Doms in my glutes has been steadily getting worse through the day. Took the dog for an extra walk at lunch time just to get moving. I am guessing they will be sore tomorrow.

What are you guys doing to minimise doms?

I take aminos intra workout to try to minimize it but itā€™s so bad in my chest lats and legs especially. Better sleep helps though

I have started using aminoā€™s this block. As far as sleep going as @kleinhound says I need to stop being a bitch and use my CPAP machine

My problem is Monday squat doms means deadlifts are a right off on Wednesday

In my experience, DOMS is avoided through eitherā€¦

  1. Consistently doing far more work on the muscles in question. Make them impervious

  2. Do the opposite. Be a complete bitch and avoid getting into situations that even cause DOMS in the first place

Yep. I am trying to re-learn this lesson with Bulgarians. They key to doing them is to never stop doing them, but I always ā€œforgetā€

Mainly nothing. I just sit it out.

Other than that: Hot baths, if I have the money sauna and if I have the time: Walking (life is a bit of a mess right now).

I take fish oil daily, and that helps, but mostly I just wait it out.
