DOMS DOMS DOMS

It is now Monday morning and my arse is killing me - more specifically my glutes are killing me. I did a good leg training session on Friday morning:

  • 10 sets of medium weighted squats
  • 10 sets of medium weighted lunges

Sounds easy eh? I managed to get through them without too much pain - just felt the last two sets of lunges. However, I could hardly walk up the stairs after it. I would have expected some DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness - that achey pain you feel 1 or 2 days after weight training). But I can’t believe they are still going strong today - 3 days later. I didn’t feel like the session had been that tough. Obviously it must have been. This month I am aiming for muscle growth and size so this is part of the package - I must be doing something right.

Today I did just chest again:

  • 4 sets of 10 swiss ball chest press
  • 4 sets of 10 swiss ball flys
  • 4 sets of 10 swiss ball press and twist
  • 4 sets of 10 military press ups (bringing a knee up to your shoulder during a press up)

Feels like it is really hitting the spot and I am getting much stronger in my chest now. Certainly a moob buster (moobs: aka man-boobs).

Cheers

M
