Rx If you have been working out for any length of time or especially if you are new to lifting weights, you have no doubt felt muscle soreness. The question everyone who has felt this wants to know is, should I workout if my muscles are sore? In this video I cover the answer to that question and start by getting you to ask an even more important thing. That is, what type of soreness do you have? Are you really experiencing muscle soreness after your workout or is it joint pain or tendon discomfort. There are a few quick and easy ways to tell the difference between joint pain and normal post workout soreness. The first of these is to palpate the muscle that is sore and determine where you are feeling the pain. If your muscles are sore in the belly of the muscle rather than either of the two endpoints (origin and insertion) then you are more likely dealing with normal DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness. Next, if your muscle soreness seems to come on immediately after your workout rather than 24 to 48 hours after, then you are likely dealing with something other than normal discomfort. Finally, if you can get someone to move your affected muscles through space (like lifting your arm up over your head for you if you have a sore shoulder, you can determine if the pain is more joint or muscle in origin. In terms of recovering from muscle soreness the absolute best way is through proper rest and supplementation. Providing your muscles with the right nutrients is absolutely the fastest way to speed up muscle recovery. For an example of this, read this email that I received from an ATHLEAN-Rx supplement user Nate Eswine. Yep, he's a bit crazy with this workout he did, but the take home message is how he recovered from such an insane assault so fast. EMAIL FROM NATE: ================ Jeff! I hope you are able to read this. My friend and I are 18 years old and have been following your programs since AX-1, and truly respect your knowledge, creativity and craft with fitness. We've been taking your RX supplements like it's our religion. And I can honestly say they are without a doubt the best supplements on this earth. We've tried everything on the shelf, and nothing compares to the purity and power inside each of those three little black tubs. With all of that in mind, we got inspired by all the challenges in the AX programs- and we decided to push ourselves with an INSANE challenge that we created. This definitely falls into the realm of overtraining, but keep in mind this was only done once and absolutely not weekly! The challenge (inspired by the 300 workout) was as follows: 1. Pullups (143 reps, assisted) 2. Deadlifts (143 reps, 95lbs) 3. Pushups (143 reps) 4. Box Jumps (143 reps, 24inch platform) 5. Leg Lifts (143 reps, holding a 95lb bar over our heads) 6. Single Arm Clean and Press (70 reps each arm, 15lbs) 7. Pullups [again! ] (143 reps, assisted) This completes 1 round. The challenge was to finish 1 round in under 1 hour, and do a total of 3 rounds. We finished each round with 2-3 minutes to spare before hour 2 and hour 3 hit- and we were back at it! In the end, we accomplished a total of 3 rounds- finishing with a total of 3, 003 reps! If you've read this far, I'm sure you're convinced that we are mental- and truth be told, we are. BUT, we were smart with our supplementation. We took a scoop and a half of your pre-workout before hand, and 3, 000 reps later took 2 scoops of the post-workout. We went home and took 2 scoops of the recovery shake and crashed haha. We were out until later that evening, and took two more scoops and fell asleep again until the next day! Here's what's crazy (besides the challenge we conjured up)- we WERE NOT that sore. like at all. My only guess is it had to be the supplements. It's true we trained hard, and we trained long, but it would have been one or the other without your supplements, motivation, inspiration and a little insanity. Thanks again Jeff for everything, you have been such a great fitness mentor! -Nathan and Gabriel =============== To get the same muscle recovery stack that Nathan used be sure to head to

I-m at a point in my life where I-m sore after anything I do. At one point in my life I was considered to be in very good shape. I I did devote varicose veins in my legs, I saw a doctor about the, because they were causing me pain. He recommended that I have the veins striped I did and an air bubble went to my brain causing a stroke, strokes are NOT a good thing, that was about nine years ago, I-m trying to become more physical again, but after nine years of poor diet and very little physical activity. I-m finding very challenging to say the least, but your videos are motivating, thank you. I-m typing and listening to your Vedic at the same time, muscle soreness is an indicator of recovery, wow I must be on my way. Ha ha. I-m not looking to get bigger, I-ve always been big, I just want to be leaner and stronger again. I volunteer with youth programs, stand I-d like to be able to keep up, that-s never been a problem for me prior to 2011 and my stroke. I know, I-ll sign up for one of you programs, I not rich but I do have a couple of dollars I can spend on health. One again thanks for the informative videos.

Jeff, hello. I'm new, just signed up after watching a dozen of your videos and I'm looking forward to becoming part of the pack and another example of your time tested process, Thank You for what you do.
I've no way to tell if anyone else has ever mentioned this before, but is there any way that you can fix the audio echo that's prevalent in many of your videos please? I know you may feel like it looks dumb to have a wireless headset and small boom mic on while recording, but it'd be well worth it from the viewers side. If that's unacceptable to you, directional microphone maybe? Something.
The kitchen and the brick basement videos are difficult to follow and I am glad captions are available on some of them.
Just a suggestion and a heartfelt request. Thank You for considering it.
A.

I Always had this doubt in my mind, I don't know if it's a myth
I rarely get muscle soreness does that mean those days are the only days I performed well?
Is it good to workout when your sore does that mean you will get extra muscles like the muscle fibres are already weakened and broken down so if I do workout for the same muscle group during sore will I get more muscles because those muscle fibres are weak so if I hit them again they will easily be broken down so will it get give more muscle?
PS sorry for bad english -

its been a while since I have seen a video of Him with a shirt on.
ideas for future videos.
I am curious if you could do a video of how working out can help your brain with memory. for example do a memory test before and after a work out. You can use Jessi as your test subject.
Next I am curious about NMN or the anti aging stuff. I am seeing videos on it alot.
Next my knees are popping a lot lately. How do you know you need to go to the doctor because your knees are hurting to much?

The muscle soreness happens when the muscles are -dry- and not flat. You can use a foam roller or for more direct impact, a lacrosse ball. Use them to roll back and forth on the sore muscles. It will be uncomfortable at first but as you smooth out the muscles they won-t hurt as much and be looser so you can keep training. I have done these in mobility classes for more than a year and it helped me not have any sore muscles at all.

Is this combo of supplements good for a 40 year old woman, who has 8 kids, and training for marathons and ironmans. I do tons of cardio, and strength training. Sometimes after leg day I-m sore for 4-5 days, like can-t walk down the stairs or sit on the toilet without cringing. I just worry about bulking up. Also I am breastfeeding and have amenorrhea, is this safe or ideal for someone like me?

My old workout consists of 1100 reps. I can do in an hour, but normally 1, 5 hours. I didn't take any supplements, and I didn't get sore at all. I did about 22 exercises with average around 15 reps, and didn't get sore at all. Joe I've changed it because, the problem was I did it too fast, so now that I've changed it, I get a lot less work done, but more soreness.

Don, t recommend sore muscle, s. but if it happens in the first 48 hrs after working a particular muscle with a particular exercise and you get 90 percent less sore by 72 Hr after the event. and you repeat that particular exercise and that particular muscle is stronger ie more weight or reps. well its all good if you don, t get as sore the next time. maybe

Okay I've never work out. but I started two days ago and i did 20 push ups. waited 5mins could only do 18 more. waited 5 more mins. could only do 9 more. next day. My triceps are killing me. I couldn't even touch my face with out pain. the left arm hurt worse then the right. Should i wait to work out or just take the pain and do it anyways?

We all know this feeling, sore muscles, pain, but you still want to hit the gym, still fancy to exercise. Proper stretching helps to release tension in your muscles. You can also use a great Gun Massager for: myofascial release, lactic acid decomposition, deep massage. Hightly recommended. Stay healthy and flexible; )
