Minimize Post-Workout Soreness

I have found that in order to minimize post-workout soreness you have to manage your routine. If you are new to working out, starting off slowly and gradually increasing your intensity will allow you to get results without the soreness. This takes time and patience as everyone wants to see result immediately. Unfortunately, this enthusiasm frequently leads to excessive soreness or injury resulting in termination of workouts. If you are a consistent exerciser, making small changes to your workouts will give you results but you must make more of them consistently. Let one small change lead to another and before you know it you have a whole new workout. Consider examining your warm-up. You may find your soreness comes from not preparing your muscles adequately for your strength session. Another strategy is to work in some active recovery between sets of exercise. Doing some stretching or abdominal work between sets can help keep aches at bay. Let me know if you have a strategy for getting results without aches and pain.
