lets talk muscle soreness for a second...
so i destroyed my arms last night so of course they are really sore today. anyone have any tips on preventing / reducing muscle soreness the next day? i was thinking like would a heat pad after a workout or something maybe help reduce next day soreness?
thoughts... |
buy some L glutamine floorfiller. i have been taking it for a while and it helps me recover from a workout in 2-3 days instead of the usual 3-5. only problem is the powder form tastes like crap no matter what you mix it with.
i was just at musclemag and i went a little nuts with my visa. i bought a nox2 hemodabulator, a no2 hemodabulator, 2x large l-glutamines, pvl pure whey gold 2 protien powder(large size), pinnacle juiced chocolate protien (large size), and a small weider 90% protien powder (small size).
well the weider protien tastes like ass. i dont reccomend it. and has anyone tried these nox2 no2 products? |

havent tried no 2 lol
sounds like something youd put in your car :p
but glutamine is good for stacking i think.. its meant to be stacked with hydroxycut isnt it?
i avoid that stff.. when i used it it made me lose 5 lbs :eek:
you should always brea 2 or 3 days after a workout anyways glutamine isnt necesarry unles your stacking |

well i don't want to be sore the next day...i'm already always sore the next few days hehehe...or at least reduce the amount of soreness...do you think the heat pad thing would help hehehe?
what else...
i might get some glucosamine and condrotin too because that's more what i'm looking to reduce i guess....i just get really sore in my and tight around, for example for elbows after arm day, or like back of my thighs after leg day...just like to reduce the amount of uncomfortableness hehehe... |

alright, quick question.
do you lot have a set workout program for a certain day? i.e do yous workout biceps only one day, legs only next day?
is this the best? i find that after about 2 workouts on biceps they are fairly sore, and cant do as much weight as for the another excercise.
So i was thinking of a mixture of excercises
like on day 1. i do 2 chest excercise, 2 leg ones, 2 for biceps etc. Also would plan on switching different excercises e.g one day do incline curl, then next day do hammer instead.
just wondering which is better? or does it make a difference? |

you can do that if you want...but lemme tell you the differences...
first off i prefer to do three different days...
arm day / torso day / leg day
hopefully that will make sense for what exercises you are doing each day hehe...
but hear is the logic. if you are working a certain group of muscles you are going to be feeding those with the nutrients from that day. if you try and do a total body workout...well...you're gonna have to spread out those nutrients over the entire body and so each muscle doesn't get as much. that's probably the big difference. so a lot of people just like to specialize a day so that those nutrients are used more directly and efficiently... |

aye, I usually do a hot shower and a good stretching about 3 hours after a work out. and same the next day. Tends to get rid of the soreness
my friend worked at GNC and is a nutrionist person and loved NO2 said it was awesome . Filled you with blood not water like creatine and you actually are that big instead of pissing it all out 2 weeks later :D
yeah like Jason said,
Chest-back/biceps-triceps-shoulders-forearms/Legs
and yeah mixing up routines is the best way to keep growth goin! Hammers are a lot harder too hehe |

you know if you wanna get big legs...you're gonna have to do some of the bigger exercises. i mean i really don't like doing leg machines...i like the presses and squats because those REALLY workout your legs. the only leg machine i like to do though is the leg curl one because it just targets it so well...leg extensions are worthless to me hehehe :p...but eh...i usually still do them at the end of a work out hehe...
but really do some of the bigger compound exercises and you'll see better results |
