What Causes Muscle Soreness after Exercise

 

 

If you ever weight train or do a lot of aerobic exercise, then you know the feeling of the burn. And you no doubt know the feeling of tender muscles for hours and days after working out. But, is that tenderness good or is it bad? Should your muscles ache after exercise?

Some muscle soreness is typical after exercise, especially if you are just starting a new routine or working a particular group of muscles. In fact, they should feel some soreness, as it is a sign that you are working them. The strengthening and toning of muscles comes from working them to stress and then letting them recover.

When you exercise, you won’t likely “feel the burn” of muscle soreness right away. It can take several hours for that to happen. In fact, you usually don’t feel any soreness until you’ve rested your body, typically after a full night’s sleep. This next-day soreness is caused by damage to the muscle fibers during exertion. The recovery time is needed for healing and redevelopment of the muscle, which leads to toning and strengthening of the muscle.

So, some muscle soreness is a good thing. You can actually use it as a guide when you strength train. When you feel that soreness, take breaks of a day or more between workouts, and don’t work the sore muscles again until the soreness is gone, in order to prevent injuring the muscle. However, if the soreness you feel is more than just some slight tenderness, or you can’t move the muscle properly, you should not continue exercising, and see a doctor.

The most effective way to train your body and strengthen your muscles is through exerting the muscles until you feel the burn, and then allow them to fully recover. The muscle fibers will heal, and you will find your muscles are stronger and more toned over time.
