well you just need to push em harder. i thought the same thing but i worked them out really hard the other day and im sore!

I have the same problems sometimes. When that happens I switch things up to shock them. Maybe you need to try to do something they are not used to doing to shock them. Try doing supersets, 21's, or maybe use dumbbells and run the rack. Just something that they are not used to doing.

ah 21's are good. i try to let down all my reps really slow. makes em burn

who cares if your sore? Are you growing?

bump tsm. soreness is not a good gauge for training. as long as you are making gains, you're fine. im hardly even sore on any body part. i think soreness is a sign of not enough protein...just my .02

let me raise your .02 cents and give you .04

yea im growing i was just wondering i thought soreness was something u experience when your growing muscle cause of the muscle tear (i get a great pump during my workout)

soreness is a result of lactic acid. As you progress with working out your body stops producing lactic acid when you tear your muscles.

posted by CUTS

i have lots of lactic acid then. that normal?

posted by TomSizeMore

some have more some have less. Did you recently take some time off

posted by CUTS

little bit. couple weeks ago though

posted by TomSizeMore

that could explain why. Could take about a month to get back in routine

posted by CUTS

seems like my chest and tris are always sore the day after though

doing the same exercise over and over again will give you a tolerance, do a weird exercise for bis and im sure youll get sore. or better yet, do heavy tbar rows, and by heavy, i mean heavy as heavy as you can go, like 4 reps. That hits the BIs HARD.

and soreness isnt an indication youre growing either:)

posted by Tdroptop

No, growing is not directly related to soreness at all. I work out as hard as possible every time, and occasionaly get SLIGHT soreness in my lower back and legs from dead lifts. Other than that no soreness unless it's something i have never done before.

I might go so far as to say that FREQUENT soreness on regular routines means you are doing something wrong if anything, but i have nothing to back that up at all

i dont think so. if your sore youre sore. i dont think its not doing something right

im always sore for a few days. sometimes it comes in the way of working out but at the same time its a mental gaurantee that you accomplished something.

posted by CUTS

yea i always feel like i worked my muscles hard cuz they hurt. im with bleeke on this one

posted by bleeke

i didnt lift work out for a month cuz i was in germany and the first day back i stretched the crap out of my pecs on flys and it wasnt a good burn. i thought i may have overstretched them and it lasted over a week.

quick question its not about soreness but i just wanted to know if it is normal if your chest starts cracking when u start streching real good..

posted by SkinnyManKyle

cracking?

posted by LUDEEZY_ 510

yea just when i strech real good like pop my chest out and and kinda move my shoulders back a lil the center of my chest cracks a lil not a lot..

posted by Louisiana_boy
