Maybe tonight or possibly when you get up tomorrow morning, after one or numerous, hard Marine.Fit session, there may be some soreness. You may have even had it before we started tonight. DOMS - Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness is totally natural and it can happen when starting a new exercise programme or changing that programme up with movements, intensity or duration. It happens not only to beginners, but to experienced athletes and regular gym users as well. Don’t worry, it’s normal. It’s a result of eccentric muscle contractions like running up or down hill, squatting, push ups… you know… all the stuff we do at Marine.Fit. It leads to greater stamina and strength overall. How do you deal with it? Stretch off, use active recovery, foam roller that s*$£, hydrate, take an ice or contrast water bath, use the R.I.C.E. rule (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation), try yoga or a sports massage. Some may work for you but not others, so test and adjust, stay active and keep moving! Use your days off training to speed up recovery.......... Eat well, get plenty of water, stretch, roll, rest and repeat. It’s been a great week of progression, hard intense training and good times! Enjoy the weekend everybody!
