Day 3 (04/12/2011)

OK, still at work but have a little time to kill so did a little more research. DOMS made me its bitch (see link below.) Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. No real known cause or cure, just the result of new or increased exercise routines. Gone in a couple days rest... Lets see how long it takes without a couple days. Though tonight's routine (shoulders and arms plus the Ab Ripper X... if I'm not dead by then) is going to be taken a bit slower than the last couple. Slower pace and fewer reps on everything. Alright, back to work for me though. And in late-breaking news... some of you adrenaline junkies out there may be aware of this... but I just found out that chocolate milk is considered throughout the fitness world as a great after-workout recovery drink. Rather than spending tons of cash on Shakeology or other similar after-workout recovery drinks... chocolate milk is said to have the perfect balance of carbs/proteins/etc. Obviously they agree you should look for 1% or skim as the base :) Either way, IMMD (It made my day.)http://sportsmedicine.about.com/cs/injuries/a/doms.htm
