Default Re: Physiological question re: exercise

Do you work out every day?
I really suggest a rest once in a while - your muscles need to time to recuperate.

Also make sure you warm up - not necessarily stretching but light work till your body is nice and warm. Also stretch after your workout. See if that helps

It may sound like you are experiencing some delayed onset muscle soreness.
