Delayed Muscle Soreness (DMS)
Recently, I’ve been focusing on reducing fat and shaping my body, primarily through running at the gym to burn calories. I’m also supplementing this with some basic strength training to boost my basal metabolism. I’ve noticed a pattern: muscle soreness always lags behind, and not working out every day doesn’t cause as much pain; it’s really noticeable 48-72 hours after exercise.
My training goals are mainly to return to my ideal weight, so the intensity of strength training isn’t planned to be particularly high.
